To compare the foveal avascular zone (FAZ), macular and peripapillary vessel density and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness between pediatric migraine patients and healthy subjects. A total of 108 eyes of 54 children with migraine without aura and 94 eyes of 47 age- and gender-matched healthy subjects were included. Capillary vessel density (CVD) in superficial (SCP) and deep (DCP) retinal capillary plexus, peripapillary region, FAZ, and RNFL thickness were analyzed by optical coherence tomography-angiography. The mean ages were 12.4 ± 3.3 years (range 6-18) in patients with migraine and 12.6 ± 2.9 years (range 5-18) in healthy controls (p = 0.742). The mean FAZ area measured 0.27 ± 0.09 mm in the pediatric migraineurs and 0.26 ± 0.09 mm in healthy controls (p = 0.53). There was no significant difference in any measurement of SCP, DCP, peripapillary CVD, and RNFL thickness between study groups (p > 0.05 for all). The pediatric migraine disability assessment test (PedMIDAS) negatively correlated with some of the CVD and RNFL measurements in pediatric migraine patients (p < 0.05). The macular and peripapillary microvasculature were not significantly different during an attack-free period in pediatric migraine patients than in healthy subjects.

Landscape of Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome: From Bedside to Bench, Past to Present.

Investigations into mechanisms of cyclic(al) vomiting syndrome (CVS) began at the bedside more than a century ago. The modern era started with the formation of the Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome Association in 1993 that helped initiate robust efforts in education, advocacy, family physician conferences, scientific symposia, dedicated clinical programs, therapeutic guidelines, and research. Even today, bedside clues continue to emerge with the recent description of cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) and subsequent evidence of a perturbed endocannabinoid system.

Background: Most previous studies have focused on the clinical efficacy after intervention of ESDM, particularly in core symptoms. However, only a few have paid attention to the effectiveness of ESDM on emotional dysregulation and behavior problems in children with ASD. This study aimed to explore the effect of the ESDM on addressing emotional dysregulation and behavior problems in children with ASD in China, as well as its correlation with core symptoms of ASD.

Glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1-DS) is an uncommon condition represented by an infantile-onset disorder, frequently arising from heterozygous mutations in the gene. Individuals with GLUT1-DS may present with early-onset seizures (typically manifesting before 4 years of age), developmental delay, and complex movement disorders. In fewer cases, stroke-like events or hemiplegic migraine-like symptoms are also reported, defined by unilateral paresis affecting 1 side of the body and/or one-half of the face, occasionally accompanied by speech impairment.

Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Children's Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Background And Purpose: To determine the clinical phenotypes, relapse timing, treatment responses, and outcomes of children with relapsing myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD).
Methods: We collected the demographic, clinical, laboratory, and radiological data of patients aged <18 years who had been diagnosed with MOGAD at Seoul National University Children's Hospital between January 2010 and January 2022; 100 were identified as positive for MOG antibodies, 43 of whom experienced relapse.
Results: The median age at onset was 7 years (range 2-16 years).

: Chronobiology has gained attention in the context of paediatric neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, including migraine, epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Disruptions in circadian rhythms are associated with key symptoms such as sleep disturbances, mood dysregulation, and cognitive impairments, suggesting a potential for chronobiology-based therapeutic approaches. : This narrative review employs a systematic approach to identify relevant studies through searches of three major scientific databases, NCBI/PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus, up to July 2024.
