Quantifying EEG measures across age allows the ability to establish parameters of normalcy at any age which can be used as a reference when children exhibit developmental delays in their abilities and/or other atypical and maladaptive behaviors. A review of the current literature on the utilization of QEEG methods to serve as an aid for identifying these children as distinctively different from normal, and in some cases as distinctive from other clinical considerations has been shown to provide a sufficient sensitivity and specificity worthy of consideration as a diagnostic aid in evaluating clinical deviations in development. Furthermore, these same QEEG measures can provide a means of establishing treatment efficacy for the evident brain dysfunctions underlying these childhood disorders.

Three cases of hemoglobin M disease in a family lineage: Case report and literature review.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Pediatric Hematology, Children's Medical Center, The First Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, China.
Rationale: This study presents a case of hemoglobin M disease (HMD), a rare inherited disorder characterized by persistent cyanosis and hypoxemia, observed across 3 generations within a single family. The diagnosis of HMD poses significant challenges, particularly in asymptomatic individuals, due to its rarity and the subtlety of its symptoms. Notably, there is a scarcity of reports on methemoglobinemia in pediatric populations, which further complicates early detection and intervention.

The accessory navicular (AN) is an accessory bone located on the posteromedial aspect of the navicular tuberosity that can cause pain following overuse or trauma, particularly during childhood. However, the detailed epidemiological characteristics of AN in children have not been well studied. This study aimed to clarify the prevalence of AN and painful AN among Japanese children by examining the characteristics according to sex and age.

Childhood obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases in adulthood, since environmental stimuli during critical windows of development can impact on adult metabolic health. Studies demonstrating the effect of prepubertal diet on adult metabolic disease risk are still limited. We hypothesized that a prepubertal control diet (CD) protects the adult metabolic phenotype from diet-induced obesity (DIO), while a high-fat diet (HFD) would predispose to adult metabolic alterations.

Background: Stunting is a vital indicator of chronic undernutrition that reveals a failure to reach linear growth. Investigating growth and nutrition status during adolescence, in addition to infancy and childhood is very crucial. However, the available studies in Ethiopia have been usually focused in early childhood and they used the traditional stastical methods.

Background: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a major cause of childhood blindness worldwide, highlighted by retinal neovascularization. Ubiquitin is present throughout the retina. The deubiquitinating enzyme ubiquitin-specific protease 39 (USP39) has been reported to be involved in angiogenesis.
