[Correlation between transcutaneous bilirubinometry and serum bilirubin in newborns ≥ 35 weeks].

Unlabelled: Clinical control and monitoring of bilirubin in the neonatal stage are essential to avoid toxicity in the central nervous system.

Objective: to determine the correlation between transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) and total serum bilirubin (TSB) levels in newborns ≥ 35 weeks.

Patients And Method: observational, cross-sectional, analytical, retrospective study that included 90 neonates of gestational age ≥ 35 weeks with mucocutaneous jaundice who underwent TcB and TSB measurement simultaneously between June 1, 2022, and January 31, 2023.

Severity of new-onset type 1 diabetes in children and adolescents during the coronavirus-19 disease pandemic.

Introduction: ß-pancreatic cells are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection and replication; this could lead to infection-related diabetes or precipitate the onset of type 1 diabetes. This study aimed to determine the severity at diagnosis, analyzing clinical and epidemiological features at debut in children under 16 years of age in the context of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Material And Methods: A retrospective observational multicenter study was carried out in 7 hospitals of the public health network located in the south of our community.

Parvovirus b19 infection in children with sickle cell disease, watch out for splenomegaly! A case report.

Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited hemoglobinopathy characterized by the presence of hemoglobin S in red blood cells. This polymerizes, distorting the red blood cells, which occlude the microcirculation and have a shorter halflife, giving rise to a chronic hemolytic anemia. This anemia is worsened by parvovirus B19, as it compromises the erythroid precursor, causing a decrease in erythrocyte production.

[Clinical and epidemiological features of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children under 16 years of age].

Introduction: During the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, efforts have focused on trying to identify the routes of transmis sion of the virus, characterize its symptoms and signs, and investigate the best diagnostic and thera peutic methods. There are fewer published data and series in the pediatric population than in adults.

Objective: To analyze the clinical and epidemiological characteristics in children under 16 years of age diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2.

[Spanish collaborative study: Description of usual clinical practice in infant obesity].

Introduction: Childhood obesity is a high prevalence health problem. Although there are clinical guidelines for its management, there is variability in its clinical approach. The aim of this study is to describe the usual clinical practice in Paediatric Endocrinology Units in Spain and to evaluate if it resembles the recommended guidelines.

[Phenotypic variability of the 1q21.1 microdeletion syndrome in members of the same family: relevance of detection of neuropsychiatric disorders for diagnosis of genetic syndromes].

Introduction: 1q21.1 microdeletion syndrome is a caused by a recurrent deletion of the 1q21.1 copy-number variant, which spans 800 kb and includes at least seven genes.
