Department of Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Dr. Behçet Uz Children Disease and Surgery Training and Research Hospital, University of Health Sciences, Izmir, Turkey.
Unlabelled: This study aimed to evaluate pathological findings on abdominal ultrasonography upon admission of children diagnosed with Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) that were associated with a more severe disease course and the need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission. This retrospective and observational study was conducted between March 2020 and May 2022. Abdominal ultrasonography findings were evaluated in children diagnosed with MIS-C associated with SARS-CoV-2.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a potentially fatal multisystemic inflammatory syndrome that is better understood in the pediatric population. Consequently, the diagnostic criteria for adults still derives from studies conducted in the pediatric population. Several genetic mutations and secondary causes, including infections, autoimmunity, and malignancy, have been reported as significant actors in this condition, especially in adults.

Objective: To explore the gene mutations of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in children, and to analyze the correlation of mutation with clinical features and prognosis of LCH, so as to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Methods: Fluorescence PCR was used to detect gene mutations in paraffin-embedded tissue samples from 78 children with LCH, and the correlation of mutation with clinical characteristics and prognosis of LCH in children was analyzed.
Results: Among the 78 children, 41 cases (52.
Article Synopsis
- Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare autoimmune disorder that causes recurring inflammation in cartilaginous tissues, affecting areas like the ears, nose, and joints.
- A 68-year-old woman without prior health issues showed symptoms like hoarseness, polyarthritis, and nasal/ear involvement, leading to her RP diagnosis using the Modified McAdam criteria.
- She was treated with intravenous cyclophosphamide and oral prednisolone, which improved her condition, while osteoporosis was treated with zoledronic acid, highlighting RP's role in patient assessments involving similar symptoms.
