Abstract
Propranolol has been the primary treatment for infantile hemangioma (IH) since 2008. Prior studies have investigated the effects in late childhood of propranolol therapy given in infancy for IH, including neurocognitive dysfunction, sleep disorders, and hypoglycemia. However, few studies have determined the risk of these adverse effects later in life. Using the TrinetX database, we studied the risk of growth impairment, sleep disorders, learning disabilities, and diabetes mellitus in children aged 10-17 years who had received propranolol for IH in infancy. The maximum age of 17 years was chosen for the study, as propranolol was established as a treatment for IH in 2008. The results showed no statistically significant risk of growth impairment, sleep disorders, learning disabilities, or diabetes mellitus in IH patients treated with propranolol. These findings support existing evidence that propranolol therapy given in infancy for IH is not associated with long-term adverse effects up to age 17 years in the studied patient population.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
