Background And Purpose: Pediatric neurosurgeons are at the forefront of the clinical management of abusive head injuries (AHI) all over the world. However, the discrepancies regarding medical practice and legal requirements in different centers have not been assessed before.
Material And Methods: We decided to perform an online survey among members of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery (ISPN) regarding their activity, their usual clinical practice regarding the medical and legal management of AHI, and their involvement in judiciary proceedings, research, and prevention campaigns.

The occurrence of nitrate is the most significant type of pollution affecting groundwater globally, being a major contributor to the poor condition of water bodies. This pollution is related to livestock-agricultural and urban activities, and the nitrate presence in drinking water has a clear impact on human health. For example, it causes the blue child syndrome.

As cCMV is infrequently diagnosed based on clinical suspicion alone, newborn cCMV screening programs have been gaining traction, especially hearing-targeted programs which only test infants who fail their newborn hearing screen. cCMV screening programs raise unique ethical dilemmas of both under- and over-diagnosis of cCMV.

Introduction: In newborns with respiratory failure and interstitial lung disease, it should be approached as chILD (Childhood Interstitial Lung Disease) syndrome to rule out alterations in surfactant metabolism and brain-lung-thyroid syndrome caused by pathogenic variants in the NKX2-1 gene.
Objective: To pre sent a newborn with chILD syndrome and a large deletion in chromosome 14q12-q21.1.

Large/abnormal offspring syndrome (LOS/AOS) is a congenital overgrowth syndrome reported in ruminants produced by assisted reproduction (ART-LOS) which exhibit global disruption of the epigenome and transcriptome. LOS/AOS shares phenotypes and epigenotypes with the human congenital overgrowth condition Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. We have reported that LOS occurs spontaneously (SLOS); however, to date, no study has been conducted to determine if SLOS has the same methylome epimutations as ART-LOS.

Background: Very few recent nationwide studies have assessed the epidemiology of cleft lip with or without palate (CL/P). The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence, risk of premature births, mortality and cause of death of CL/P.
Methods: This nationwide population-based cohort study evaluated all 5 747 830 live births in South Korea, including CL/P infants, from 2006 to 2018.

Genetic mosaicism results from postzygotic mutations during embryogenesis. Cells harboring pathogenic mutations distribute throughout the developing embryo and can cause clinical disease in the tissues they populate. Cutaneous mosaicism is readily visualized since affected tissue often follows predetermined patterns, such as lines of Blaschko.

Modern molecular biology and clinical genetics have the ability to diagnose many diseases, the presence or absence of which is important in various areas of forensic medical opinion. The aim of the study is to present examples of possible non-standard application of clinical molecular-genetic tests in forensic medicine. From among all the opinions prepared so far at the Department of Forensic Medicine in Katowice, three were selected two of which concerned post-autopsy conclusions relating to the cause of death, and in one case - opinion based on the files of a case related to the suspicion of a maltreated child syndrome in an infant.

Aims: Multisystemic inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a condition noted in some children asymptomatic but positive to Sars-cov-2 antibody and it presents clinical and laboratory changes similar to Kawasaki disease (KD). Oral changes have also been observed. This systematic review evaluated oral manifestations detected in children with MIS-C and KD associated to COVID-19.

Congenital hemidysplasia with ichthyosiform erythroderma and limb defects (CHILD) syndrome is a rare X-linked dominant disorder of cholesterol synthesis characterized by unilateral ichthyosiform dermatitis with ipsilateral limb hypoplasia. Recently, pathogenesis-based treatment has demonstrated improvement of skin lesions with statins by decreasing formation of cholesterol intermediates through inhibition of cholesterol synthesis. We report a 10-month-old girl who presented with unilateral scaly ptychotropic plaques, who experienced rapid, near-complete clearance with topical 5% simvastatin monotherapy twice daily.

Objectives: Multi-system inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a post-viral inflammatory vasculopathy of children and adolescents following Covid-19 infection. Since the incidence of SARS-CoV-infections has been increasing in Germany since October 2020, we observe an increasing number of children presenting with MIS-C.
Design: We present detailed clinical characteristics of a cohort of nine children with MIS-C admitted to a tertiary PICU at the University Hospital of Cologne between March 2020 and February 2021.

Objectives: There has been an absence of research investigating if infertility and the utilisation of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) to conceive increases maternal perceptions of child vulnerability. The purpose of the current study was to assess if there were differences in maternal ratings of child vulnerability between first-time mothers who conceived using ART procedures and first-time mothers who conceived spontaneously.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was comprised of 171 first-time mothers who conceived using ART and 198 first-time mothers who conceived spontaneously.

Introduction: Animal bites are a less common cause of pediatric injury. They are rarely associated with fractures in toddlers. Child abuse is the most closely related differential diagnosis in a child presenting with animal bite and it is a serious threat to both mental health and physical well-being of pediatric population.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFVulnerable Child Syndrome (VCS) occurs in the setting in which a child recovers from a life-threatening illness, as result of which the parent develops heightened parental perceptions of child vulnerability (PPCV). This leads to a pattern of overprotective parenting which may result in adverse neurodevelopmental and behavioral outcomes in the child over time. Parents of premature infants have been shown to be at increased risk of developing raised PPCV while their infants may develop symptoms of VCS.
