Chronic pediatric diseases and risk for reading difficulties: a narrative review with recommendations.

Literacy is a major social determinant of health, rooted in skills that develop during early childhood. Children arriving at kindergarten unprepared to learn to read are more likely to have low reading proficiency thereafter. General and health literacy are highly correlated, affecting understanding of health conditions, treatment adherence, and transition to self-care and adult healthcare services.

[Melanoma with gallbladder metastasis. Report of a case].

The authors present the case of a 28-years-old male on whom a colostomy was performed due to a biliar colic and radiological-excluded vesicle condition. The condition resulted from metastasis in bile vesicle and lymph node adjacent to a scalp melanoma which had been extirpated one year earlier. Among patients with melanoma and gallbladder symptoms, the biliar symptomology--biliar colics and pronounced cholecystitis should provoke thoughts regarding the metastatic compromise of the vesicle due to melanoma.
