Late relapse of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis: a case report.

Background: Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis is a sporadic autoimmune disorder of the brain that presents in a variety of neuropsychiatric manifestations, including seizures, psychosis, and alterations in behavior. N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor is primarily seen in young females. Although this disease can be treated, it can relapse in rare cases.

The effect of synbiotics in the treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy and the parental burden of caregivers: a single-arm pretest-posttest trial.

Background: In patients with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE), the composition of the gut microbiome changes compared to drug-sensitive patients and healthy individuals. Synbiotics, a mixture of probiotics and prebiotics, aim to improve the balance of bacteria in the gut microbiome. This study aimed to assess the effect of synbiotics on the treatment of DRE and the burden on caregivers.

Evaluation of Renal Function and Urinalysis in Children With Simple Febrile Convulsions.

Febrile convulsion (FC) is the most prevalent type of seizure in children. Febrile diseases have been associated with alterations in kidney function and urine indices. Therefore, in this study, renal function and urine analysis were examined in children with simple FC.

Toxoplasmosis Infection in Newborn: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background: Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by and one-third of the world's population has antibodies. Due to this issue, the aim of this study was to assess the mean prevalence and odds ratios of infection and epidemiological features of neonatal infection worldwide.

Materials And Methods: We performed a meta-analysis and systematic review of published studies reporting infection using the PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Scopus electronic databases through January 1999 to December 2020, regarding diagnostic tests, and prevalence data of infection among the newborn population.

Incidence of obsessive-compulsive disorder in children with nonmonosymptomatic primary nocturnal enuresis.

Introduction: Enuresis is defined as the repeated voiding of urine into clothes or bed at least twice a week for at least 3 consecutive months in a child who is at least 5 years of age. The behavior is not due exclusively to the direct physiologic effect of a substance or a general medical condition. Diurnal enuresis defines wetting, whereas awake and nocturnal enuresis refers to voiding during sleep.

Effect of movement and developmental factors in growth and evolution in children with vesicoureteral reflux.

Introduction: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a backward flow of urine from bladder to ureter or kidney. Potential reflux is harmful because of kidney being faced with the hemodynamic high-pressure during urination. This project was carried out for high prevalence of VUR and delay in growth of children with chronic diseases.

Study on MRI changes in phenylketonuria in patients referred to mofid hospital/iran.

Objective: Phenylketonuria is one of the most common metabolic disorders and the first known cause of mental retardation in pediatrics. As Screening for phenylketonuria (PKU) is not a routine neurometabolic screening test for neonates in Iran, many PKU cases may be diagnosed after developing the clinical symptoms. One of the findings of PKU is myelination disorders, which is seen as hypersignal regions in T2-weighted (T2W) and FLAIR sequences of brain MRI.
