The present study was done to estimate the association between eating rate and childhood overweight/obesity through a systematic review of prevalence studies. Relevant studies were searched by two independent researchers in databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, and data were collected from relevant studies published through June 2023 using predefined inclusion/exclusion criteria. A summary estimate was calculated using a random-effect model, and subgroup analysis was performed to explore sources of heterogeneity. Data from 16 published studies were eligible for inclusion. Fast eating was associated with a higher risk of overweight/obesity compared with a medium eating rate (OR = 1.80; 95% CI: 1.49, 2.18), and slow eating showed a declined overweight/obesity risk among children and adolescents (OR = 0.65; 95% CI: 0.52, 0.81). Subgroup analysis performed according to age showed that in all age groups, eating fast was positively correlated with overweight/obesity, while eating slowly was negatively associated with overweight/obesity. According to our study, eating rate was closely related to childhood overweight/obesity, and eating fast was associated with an increased likelihood of being overweight/obesity. In the future, it will be necessary to understand the factors that influence fast eating and develop methods to slow down the eating rate in children and adolescents.</p>","PeriodicalId":17521,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Tropical Pediatrics","volume":"70 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142583762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this open-label randomized clinical trial, term neonates with severe asphyxia (n = 41) received a 5 mg/kg intravenous dose of aminophylline within the first hour after birth, in addition to standard care for birth asphyxia. The control group (n = 40) received standard care alone. Their daily urine output, weight, serum creatinine, renal functional status, and complications during the first 5 days of life were monitored and compared. The statistical package for social sciences version 25 was used for analysis. Approximately 24.39% of neonates in the aminophylline group developed AKI, compared to 35.0% in the control group (P = .088). Although urine output was generally higher in aminophylline-treated newborns than in the control group, this increase was not statistically significant (P > .05), with the most notable differences observed on the second and third postnatal days. Also, the changes in plasma creatinine levels between the two groups during this time were not statistically significant.

This secondary analysis of an antimicrobial point prevalence survey (PPS) in children evaluates the impact of age on antimicrobial use. The mean antimicrobial prescriptions were assessed in neonates, infants, young children (1-5 years), school-going children (6-12 years), and adolescents (13-15 years) from a cross-sectional PPS at three academic hospitals between September 2021 and January 2022.

The number of antimicrobials per child (1.7-1.9 per patient) was higher in neonates and infants compared to children 6-12 years old (1.4 per patient).

Infants with risk factors for HAI significantly influenced antimicrobial prescribing, underscoring the necessity for tailored antimicrobial stewardship and enhanced surveillance.
