Percent of HbA1 was determined in 60 children with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus at the beginning and end of their first hospitalization. High levels of HbA1 (over 15%) were found in the majority of children at the admittance which means late diagnosis. A decrease in HbA1 by 0.5-7.5% was noted in 76% of all diabetic children treated at the hospital for 7-24 days. In 54% out of these children HbA1 levels decreased by 1.5-4.5%. Mean HbA1 value was 3.6% following a two-week hospitalization, and 3.7%--after 3 weeks. Mean decrease in HbA1 for all treated children was 0.18% per week. Positive correlation between HbA1 and its percentage and mean glycaemia at the beginning of hospitalization was seen. No correlation between HbA1 values measured at the end of hospitalization and blood glucose levels determined during the whole hospitalization period was found.

Maternal obesity puts the offspring at high risk of developing obesity and cardio-metabolic diseases in adulthood. Here, we utilized a mouse model of maternal high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity that recapitulates metabolic perturbations seen in humans. We show increased adiposity in the offspring of HFD-fed mothers (Off-HFD) when compared to the offspring regular diet-fed mothers (Off-RD).

There have been disparities reported in prevalence of autism by gender, race, and socioeconomic status with older ages of diagnosis in non-White and in female children. Possible disparities in the ages of autism diagnosis are not well-established within the Military Health System (MHS) pediatric population, where we hypothesized less disparities given universal Tricare coverage for active-duty military families and theoretically equal access to the military treatment facility (MTF). We conducted retrospective cross-sectional analysis using deidentified database repository records from the MHS.

Objectives: The objectives of this study were to evaluate the relationships between auditory processing, speech discrimination, and listening and communication abilities in children diagnosed with auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) compared to those with normal hearing.
Methods: This was a case-control study involving seventeen participants with a diagnosis of ANSD who used spoken language as their primary mode of communication and wore hearing aids or were unaided and 21 normally hearing controls. All underwent a battery of behavioural measures of hearing, speech perception and auditory processing skills.
Sound-symbol learning and the relationship to spelling in first-grade children.

Early spelling depends on the ability to understand the alphabetic principle and to translate speech sounds into visual symbols (letters). Thus, the ability to associate sound-symbol pairs might be an important predictor of spelling development. Here, we examined the relation between sound-symbol learning (SSL) and early spelling skills.

B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is a rare malignancy in adults with outcomes remaining poor, especially compared to children. Over the past two decades, extensive whole-genome studies have identified numerous genetic alterations driving leukemia, leading to the recognition of more than 20 distinct subtypes which are closely associated with treatment response and prognosis. In pediatric B-ALL, large correlation studies have made genetic classification a central component of risk-adapted treatment strategies.
