A Narrative Review of Soccer-Related Concussion Management in Children and Adults Over the Past 10 Years.

Soccer-related concussions (SRC) have increased despite an overall reduction of concussions across all sports activities. Few papers have studied the mechanism of injury, and have been mostly done in high-income countries or focused on small populations, preventing generalization. Our goal was to analyze the available data published about SRC over the past 10 years, independent of the country's income level.

[Pediatric therapeutic options in autoimmune neurologic diseases].

The pediatric neuroimmunology field has made significant progress in the last decade. Now, is possible to recognize primary demyelinating diseases, paraneoplastic syndromes, inflammatory (vasculitis), and granulomatous disorders that affect the central nervous system; at the same time, it is important to exclude neurologic manifestations caused by infections, toxic agents, and metabolic problems. An early diagnosis is imperative to institute treatment as soon as possible, improving outcomes.

[Autoimmune encephalitis in pediatric population].

Autoimmune encephalitis can be defined as central nervous system inflammation, secondary to multiple causes, where we can possibly identify the formation of auto-antibody against neurotransmitter receptors or neuronal surface proteins. Approximately 50% of patients are seropositive; the auto-antibody against N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) are the most common. In the pediatric population, the clinical presentation is characterized by movement disorders and seizures, psychiatric manifestations are more commonly found in young adults.
