Pediatric CIDP: Diagnosis and Management. A Single-Center Experience.

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is a rare acquired polyneuropathy that especially among youngest children should be differentiated with hereditary neuropathies. Even though upon diagnosis treatment options are similar in children and adults, diagnostic challenges are faced in the pediatric population. We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical symptoms, nerve conduction study results, modes of treatment, and final outcome in 37 children aged 3.

Decrease of interleukin (IL)17A gene expression in leucocytes and in the amount of IL-17A protein in CD4+ T cells in children with Down Syndrome.

Background: Down Syndrome is by far the most common and best known chromosomal disorder in humans. It expresses multiple systemic complications with both structural and functional defects as part of the clinical manifestation. The mechanisms of immune changes occurring in Down Syndrome are complex and include an extra gene copy of chromosome 21 and secondary dysregulation of numerous intercellular interactions.

A volumetric magnetic resonance imaging study of brain structures in children with Down syndrome.

Background And Purpose: Down syndrome (DS) is the most common genetic cause of mental retardation with deficits in language and memory. Mental retardation of varying degrees is the most consistent feature of DS. The objective of this study was to use high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to investigate the volumes of the hippocampus, amygdala, and temporal and frontal lobes in children with DS compared with healthy children.

[To know more about the Prader-Willi syndrome. Multidisciplinary support].

Prader-Willi syndrome, induced by a loss of function of paternal genes in the subcentrometric region of the chromosome 15 (q11.2q13), is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder with characteristic obesity resulting from hyperphagia. In addition behavioural disturbancies with obsessive-compulsive features, aggression, temper tantrums included, are relatively frequently seen and they often require psychiatric intervention.
