Article Synopsis
- - This study focused on understanding factors that influence fever and the duration of fever in young children with bacterial meningitis (BM), involving data from 49 centers in China over a span of more than two years.
- - A total of 863 patients under three years old were analyzed, revealing that certain infections like coagulase negative staphylococcus led to less fever, while conditions such as septicaemia and ear-nose-throat infections were linked to higher fever rates.
- - The research identified specific factors associated with delayed fever resolution, including infections like Streptococcus agalactiae, gastrointestinal infections, and complications such as encephalomalacia and subdural effusion, which could help in diagnosing and monitoring the severity of the
Carotid Intima-Media Thickness and Ankle-Brachial Index and Their Correlation with Coronary Artery Dilatation in Children with Kawasaki Disease.
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med
October 2021
Objective: To investigate the correlation between carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), ankle-brachial index (ABI), and coronary artery dilatation (CAD) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD) and to evaluate the effectiveness of CAD.
Methods: A total of 68 children diagnosed with KD from January 2019 to January 2021 in our hospital were included. According to the results of cardiac color Doppler ultrasound, the children with KD were divided into a noncoronary artery dilation group (NCAD), with 41 children with KD who did not have coronary artery lesions, and a coronary artery dilation group (CAD), with 27 children with KD who had coronary artery dilation.
