Eruptive pseudoangiomatosis (EP) is a rare cutaneous condition that usually resolves spontaneously within a few days and is more frequently seen in the pediatric age group. It is characterized by the sudden onset of asymptomatic small erythematous hemangioma-like papules encircled by a pale halo. The precise pathogenesis is unknown; however, multiple environmental triggers have been reported.

Objective: Syncope is common among pediatric patients and is rarely pathologic. The mechanisms for symptoms during exercise are less well understood than the resting mechanisms. Additionally, inert gas rebreathing analysis, a non-invasive examination of haemodynamics including cardiac output, has not previously been studied in youth with neurocardiogenic syncope.

Background: The Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern is a delta wave frequently detected in school-based cardiovascular screening programs in Japan. Although most children with Wolff-Parkinson-White pattern are asymptomatic, initial symptoms may include syncope or sudden death, necessitating accurate diagnosis and management. Delta waves can also indicate a fasciculoventricular pathway, which poses no risk and does not require management.

Background: This study intended to find out whether the parameters of heart rate variability (HRV) can predict the treatment efficacy of orthostatic training among pediatric cases of vasovagal syncope (VVS).
Methods: Patients with VVS who underwent orthostatic training were retrospectively enrolled. Lasso and logistic regression were used to sift through variables and build the model, which is visualized using a nomogram.

Objectives: To assess the outcome of pediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and to identify the predictors of morbidity and mortality of this progressive disease.
Patients And Methods: This prospective observational cohort study was conducted on consecutive pediatric patients with PAH. Medical history was taken with a grading of the WHO functional class as well as the serum N-terminal pro-BNP (NT pro-BNP), 6 min' walk test (6MWT), and echocardiography at the initial assessment and at follow-up.
