Background: With increasing use of diazoxide for hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH), reporting of serious side effects of diazoxide such as pulmonary hypertension (PHT) increased.
Methods: Charts of all children diagnosed with HH during the study period and evaluated by Pediatric Endocrinology division of the Hasbro Children's Hospital were reviewed. We analyzed diazoxide use among infants with HH with focus on infants born small for gestational age (SGA) and preterm infants.

Methemoglobinemia is a rare, yet life-threatening disorder that occurs due to an accumulation of methemoglobin in the blood. The clinical presentation often includes dyspnea, cyanosis, and hypoxemia that shows little improvement with the administration of supplemental oxygen. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warns against the administration of benzocaine to those younger than 2 years of age and urges manufacturers to add a statement regarding the possible development of methemoglobinemia to the packaging of any products containing this ingredient.

Background: The prevention of pediatric mental health disorders is a growing health priority in the United States. While exposure to green space, such as outdoor vegetation, has been linked with improved mental health outcomes in children, little is known about the impact of green space on children's sleep. Sleep has many benefits, but the factors affecting both sleep and mental health as they relate to green space exposure are not well understood in children.

Objective: To describe the incidence of new onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) among children younger than 11 years old diagnosed during the COVID-19 pandemic (March 1, 2020-December 31, 2021) compared to those diagnosed during the pre-pandemic period (January 1, 2017-February 29, 2020) and to compare the metabolic parameters of those with T2D diagnosed before age 11 years with those diagnosed after age 11 years.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of youth <21 years with new onset T2D treated at Hasbro Children's Hospital between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2021. Patients diagnosed at age <11 years were compared to those ≥11 years.

Syphilis, once in decline, is seeing a rapid re-emergence throughout the United States. A sexually transmitted infection caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum, syphilis infection in pregnancy can result in serious complications and have a profound impact on maternal and neonatal health. As rates of syphilis have increased among people of reproductive age, so too have cases of congenital syphilis.

Background And Objectives: Although sickle cell disease (SCD)-related childhood mortality in the United States significantly improved in the 1990s, unclear is the trend in SCD-related mortality more recently given the continued disparities faced by this minoritized population. In this analysis, we aimed to (1) compare the overall and age-specific mortality rates from 1999 to 2009 vs 2010 to 2020 with a particular focus on the age of transition and (2) determine the most common causes of death for the US SCD population for 2010 to 2020.
Methods: We analyzed publicly available data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention WONDER database, a compilation of national-level mortality statistics from 1979 to 2020 derived from death certificates compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics.

Background/significance: Alcohol use carries significant morbidity and mortality, yet accurate identification of alcohol use disorder (AUD) remains a multi-layered problem for both researchers and clinicians.
Objective: To fine-tune a language model to AUD in the clinical narrative and to detect AUDs not accounted for by ICD-9 coding in the MIMIC-III database.
Materials And Methods: We applied clinicalBERT to unique patient discharge summaries.

De novo variants adjacent to the canonical splicing sites or in the well-defined splicing-related regions are more likely to impair splicing but remain under-investigated in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). By analyzing large, recent ASD genome sequencing cohorts, we find a significant burden of de novo potential splicing-disrupting variants (PSDVs) in 5048 probands compared to 4090 unaffected siblings. We identified 55 genes with recurrent de novo PSDVs that were highly intolerant to variation.

Functional neurological disorder (FND) is common among children and adolescents, results in significant impairments in quality of life, and places a substantial burden on healthcare systems. Despite this, there is minimal literature to guide prescribing for this population. The purpose of this article is to provide common sense prescribing recommendations for providers who treat pediatric FND.

Background: Legal performance enhancing substance (PES) use is increasing in young athletes and may lead to banned PES use. This study examines legal PES use and consideration of banned PES use in young athletes with a season-ending injury (SEI) compared to young athletes with non-SEI/no previous injury.
Hypothesis: Young athletes sustaining SEI or concussions have increased odds of reporting legal PES use and consideration of banned PES use compared with non-SEI or no injury.
