Exploring congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency in autism spectrum disorder patients with irritable bowel syndrome symptoms: A prospective SI gene sequencing study.

Congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency (CSID) is an inherited metabolic disorder causing chronic gastrointestinal symptoms and malnutrition when untreated. Most CSID patients are likely to remain under- or misdiagnosed. This study aimed to investigate prevalence of CSID among patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) presenting with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms via prospective SI gene sequencing.

Use of ivabradine in children with junctional ectopic tachycardia after pediatric cardiac surgery; two-centre experience.

Introduction: Although amiodarone is traditionally used in the treatment of postoperative junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET), the search for new treatments is ongoing. We present our experience with ivabradine at two medical centers.

Materials And Methods: Between January 2022 and January 2023, patients who developed JET after pediatric cardiac surgery were prospectively followed up and documented.

Management of patients developing axillary pseudoaneursym after ductal stenting: Report of three cases.

Pseudoaneurysms develop as a result of disruption of the arterial wall due to trauma or iatrogenic reasons such as catheterization, and it is important due to the high risk of bleeding and rupture. Until recently, the main treatment of pseudoaneurysms was surgical repair. However, in recent years, minimally invasive methods such as ultrasound-guided compression and percutaneous thrombin injection have been used more frequently.

Assessment of the frequency and risk factors of gastrointestinal bleeding after cardiopulmonary bypass in paediatric cases.

Introduction And Aim: Gastrointestinal bleeding is a potential complication in paediatric patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass, as it develops secondary to low gastrointestinal perfusion. This study aimed to examine the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding and identify its risk factors in these patients.

Method: This retrospective study was undertaken to examine the demographic features, clinical findings, and operative data of paediatric patients under years old who had undergone congenital heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass between November 1, 2021, and November 1, 2023.

Impact of high-flow nasal oxygen therapy on postoperative atelectasis and reintubation rate after paediatric cardiac surgery.

Introduction: Airway problems emerging after congenital cardiac surgery operations may have an impact on mortality and morbidity. Recently, to improve alveolar gas exchange and reduce respiratory effort, high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) has started to be used in paediatric cases. This study aimed to evaluate the potential effects of high-flow nasal oxygen therapy on postoperative atelectasis development and reintubation rate in paediatric cardiac surgery patients.
