Neurological sequelae occur in more than 50% of children with arterial ischemic stroke. Early recognition and treatment are essential in improving outcome. However, diagnostic delay in paediatric stroke often extends beyond 24 hours, and children rarely access hyperacute recanalisation therapies. This review describes clinical presentations, risk factors and treatment of paediatric ischaemic stroke. Additionally, we share our experience from a systematic paediatric stroke pathway implemented in Eastern Denmark since 2017.

Neurosonography (NSG) is pivotal for rapid, point-of-care neonatal brain assessment. This review elucidates the comprehensive applications of NSG in pediatric care, emphasizing its role in early diagnosis and management of pathologies affecting the pediatric head-such as scalp lesions, misshapen calvarium, ventricular distortions, and cerebrovascular abnormalities, and its specific role in conditions like hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) across different neonatal gestational ages. We explore its diagnostic advantage in critical care settings, particularly for infants with stroke risk in sickle cell disease, ECMO-related complications, screening for therapeutic hypothermia, and routine neonatal intensive care unit monitoring.

Introduction: Post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) is a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection-associated chronic condition characterized by long-term violations of physical and mental health. People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at high risk for severe COVID-19 and PCS.
Aim: The current study aimed to define the predictors of PCS development in people with T2D for further planning of preventive measures and improving patient outcomes.
