Article Synopsis
- This study explored the effectiveness of using the ureteral diameter ratio (UDR) for predicting and managing vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) by reviewing data from multiple scientific databases.
- The analysis included 13 retrospective studies, revealing that lower UDR is associated with spontaneous resolution of VUR, while higher UDR correlates with increased risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and the need for surgical intervention.
- The findings highlight a need for further research to establish specific UDR cut-off values for better clinical decision-making regarding VUR outcomes.
Introduction: Children ≤5 years of age with Ewing's sarcoma (ES) possibly have a distinct disease biology, data on which are scarce. We evaluated clinical features, outcomes, and prognostic factors of ES among children with age ≤5 years.
Methods: Children with ES registered between 2003 and 2019 were included.
Objectives: To assess the clinico-pathological features, management and outcomes, amongst extracranial malignant germ cell tumors (MGCTs) in children treated primarily at a tertiary care center in a resource-challenged nation.
Methods: The prospectively maintained data for children below 14 y of age treated for extracranial MGCT from May 1994 to January 2023 was analyzed for patient characteristics, management, event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) and factors effecting survival. Events was defined as death, recurrence and progression.
