Occurrence and risk factors associated with seizures in infants with severe bronchiolitis.

Neurological morbidity is a growing concern in children with severe bronchiolitis. The aim of the study was to evaluate the frequency of occurrence and the factors associated with seizures in very young infants < 3 months of age, admitted to a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) for severe bronchiolitis. We performed a single center retrospective cohort study evaluating occurrence of seizures in infants admitted to the PICU between 2010 and 2018 for severe bronchiolitis.

Drug-Induced Fulminant Hepatitis in a Child Treated for Latent Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis With Dual Therapy Combining Pyrazinamide and Levofloxacin.

We report the case of a 10-year-old child treated for latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) with pyrazinamide (PZA) and levofloxacin after contact with a smear-positive multidrug-resistant tuberculosis adult. Over the course of the treatment, the patient developed a drug-induced fulminant hepatitis attributed to the combination of PZA and levofloxacin. This case highlights the hepatotoxicity of the association of second-line anti-TB treatment in children.
