AI Article Synopsis
- MIS-C is a serious inflammatory condition that can occur in children 2 to 4 weeks after infection with SARS-CoV-2, characterized by inflammation and heart issues.
- Despite being recognized for over two years, effective treatments for MIS-C are still being studied.
- The review explores the potential of natural compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties as possible treatments to mitigate hyperinflammation associated with MIS-C.
Article Abstract
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) has been widely reported in some children diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2. Clinical signs of MIS-C are manifested at 2 to 4 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection, where elevated biomarkers of inflammation and cardiac dysfunction are the hallmark of this syndrome when infection or exposure to SARS-CoV-2 has been confirmed. However, after two years of acknowledgment, MIS-C treatment is still under research to reach safety and effectiveness in the acute phase in children. Therefore, in this review, we discuss the potential use of natural compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects to reduce collateral damage caused by hyperinflammation in MIS-C pathology for new research in treatment and interventions.

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.

Background/aim: Differentiating multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) from adenovirus infection (AI) can be challenging due to similar clinical and laboratory findings. This study aimed to identify distinguishing characteristics and develop a scoring system to facilitate accurate diagnosis.
Materials And Methods: A comprehensive review of medical records was undertaken for 108 MIS-C patients and 259 patients with confirmed AI.

Purpose: To evaluate retinal vascular changes by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C).
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 21 patients who were diagnosed with MIS-C and had a history of hospitalization, 20 pediatric outpatients with a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) diagnosis, and 26 healthy children. All patients underwent a detailed ophthalmologic examination and OCTA.
