Advances in digital medicine now make it possible to use digital twin systems (DTS), which combine (1) extensive patient monitoring through the use of multiple sensors and (2) personalized adaptation of patient care through the use of software. After the artificial pancreas system already operational in children with type 1 diabetes, new DTS could be developed for real-time monitoring and management of children with chronic diseases. Just as providing care for children is a specific discipline-pediatrics-because of their particular characteristics and needs, providing digital care for children also presents particular challenges.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a novel post-infectious disease occurring in the context of SARS-CoV2 infection. COVID-19 vaccines have been authorized since December 2020, and adverse events including myocarditis have been reported following vaccination. We describe the cases of two pediatric patients presenting with clinical and laboratory features suggestive of MIS-C a few days after receiving their first dose of the Pfizer BNT162b2 vaccine.

Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is an underdiagnosed and underrecognized ocular surface disease with limited epidemiological data in Asia. It is more prevalent in warm, dry, and windy climates, and often has a substantial impact on a patient's quality of life. In rare cases, VKC can be associated with vision loss, either through corticosteroid overuse or inadequate treatment of persistent inflammation.

Background: Choroid plexectomy was first performed around 1910. Later, the technique evolved into subtotal choroid plexus cauterization (CPC) but was largely abandoned following the invention of the ventriculoperitoneal shunt. Over time, with improved understanding of the pathophysiology of hydrocephalus and improvement in endoscopic techniques and equipment, the procedure of CPC was reintroduced.

Community-acquired pneumonia is a common diagnosis in children. Among the many children whose symptoms and/or chest X-ray is consistent with community-acquired pneumonia, it can be difficult to distinguish the rare cases of differential diagnoses that require specific management. The aim of this educational article is to provide clinicians with a series of questions to ask themselves in order to detect a possible differential diagnosis of pneumonia in children.

Aim: To compare paediatric patients with cerebral sinovenous thrombosis (CSVT) with and without head/neck infection to improve management of the condition.
Method: We conducted a bicentric retrospective study of consecutive children (neonates excluded) with radiologically confirmed CSVT, comparing children with a concurrent head/neck infection and children with other causes.
Results: A total of 84 consecutive patients (46 males and 38 females) with a median age of 4 years 6 months (range 3 months-17 years 5 months) were included.

Infant botulism is a rare and life-threatening disease caused by the inhalation of Clostridium botulinum spores and differs from adult forms. We report the case of infant botulism in a 4-month-old boy who was exclusively breastfed without any consumption of honey. He presented with severe and acute encephalo-myelo-radiculitis.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of France's neonatal hearing loss screening programme years after its launch, and to estimate permanent bilateral neonatal hearing loss (PBNHL) prevalence and distribution by severity.
Methods: This descriptive study used aggregated regional data on all births in France in 2015-2016. Screening coverage, refusal rate, positive predictive value (PPV), proportion of children with suspected PBNHL, PBNHL prevalence and distribution by severity were calculated.

Purpose: Retinal and choroidal abnormalities in neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) remain poorly studied. It has been reported, however, that the function of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in NF1 was abnormal, with a supra-normal Arden ratio of the electro-oculogram (EOG). This study aims to evaluate the function of the RPE, using EOG, first in patients with NF1 compared to controls and second in patients with NF1 with choroidal abnormalities compared to patients with NF1 without choroidal abnormalities.

Aniridia is a panocular disease causing progressive severe visual impairment and blindness due to PAX-6 haploinsufficiency. One of the most disabling ocular symptoms is aniridia-related keratopathy (ARK), a progressive corneal opacification due to epithelial impairment, vascular and conjunctival pathologies. There is currently no available treatment to prevent progressive visual loss.

Aniridia is a panocular inherited rare eye disease linked to heterozygous mutations on the PAX6 gene, which fail to properly produce sufficient protein essential for normal eye development and function. Most of the patients suffer from aniridia-related keratopathy, a progressive opacification of the cornea. There is no effective treatment for this blinding disease.

Importance: Sirolimus is increasingly being used to treat various vascular anomalies, although evidence of its efficacy is lacking.
Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of sirolimus for children with slow-flow vascular malformations to better delineate the indications for treatment.
Design, Setting And Participants: This multicenter, open-label, observational-phase randomized clinical trial included 59 children aged 6 to 18 years with a slow-flow vascular malformation who were recruited between September 28, 2015, and March 22, 2018, in 11 French tertiary hospital centers.

Introduction: Aminoacyl transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetases are associated with diseases when mutations occur in their encoding genes. Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis can be caused by mutation in the methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MARS) gene while mutations in the leucine-tRNA synthetase (LARS) gene lead to infantile liver failure syndrome type 1. We report the case of a patient with LARS1 pathogenics variants and two patients with MARS1 pathogenics variants.

Although the left ventricular assist device is an important bridge to heart transplantation for patients with end-stage heart failure, it can also be a source of embolic stroke. We present a case of late intracranial mechanical thrombectomy performed for embolic stroke beyond the recommended 6 h, thus allowing for heart transplantation 4 days after intracranial mechanical thrombectomy.

Background: The growing use of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) is promoting the application of data mining in health-care. A promising use of big data in this field is to develop models to support early diagnosis and to establish natural history. Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a rare developmental and epileptic encephalopathy that commonly initiates in the first year of life with febrile seizures (FS).

Competence and warmth are two essential dimensions of patient care. During the twentieth century, the industrial revolution in data collection, with the increasing use of machines and the division of labor that led to the development of many subspecialities, increased the overall competence of physicians at the expense of the warmth dimension. The spread of patient-centered care principles aimed to rebalance the two dimensions.

VGLL2-rearranged rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are rare low-grade tumors with only favorable outcomes reported to date. We describe 4 patients with VGLL2-rearranged RMS confirmed by molecular studies, who experienced local progression and distant metastases, including 2 with fatal outcomes. Tumors were diagnosed at birth (n=3) or at 12 months of age (n=1), and were all localized at initial diagnosis, but unresectable and therefore managed with chemotherapy and surveillance.
