We investigated the relationship between swimming and respiratory allergic symptoms in schoolchildren.Methods: A questionnaire regarding participation in sports club activities and respiratory allergic symptoms in schoolchildren was distributed to the parents of all 6853 public school students (aged 6-14 years) in Omihachiman City, Shiga, Japan. The relationships between participation in sports club activities and the prevalence of respiratory allergic symptoms were analyzed by multivariable logistic regression analyses.Results: Questionnaires were returned for 4991 schoolchildren (response rate: 72.8%). Logistic regression analysis revealed significant positive associations between swimming and rhinitis (42.9% vs. 38.9%; adjusted odds ratio, 1.26; 95% confidence interval, 1.10-1.44), and swimming and pollinosis (32.1% vs. 28.1%; adjusted odds ratio, 1.28; 95% confidence interval, 1.11-1.47). The duration of participation in swimming activities was also significantly positively associated with the prevalence of rhinitis and pollinosis. Those who had participated in swimming activities for 6 years or more showed significantly higher prevalences of rhinitis and pollinosis (46.3% and 36.4%, respectively) than those without swimming activities (38.9% and 28.1%, respectively) and those who had participated in swimming activities for 5 years or less (40.1% and 28.5%, respectively).Conclusions: Swimming was associated with the prevalence of rhinitis and pollinosis in schoolchildren, especially among those who had participated in swimming activities for 6 years or more. Preventive measures and early interventions for rhinitis and pollinosis should be recommended to these children.","PeriodicalId":20039,"journal":{"name":"Pediatrics International","volume":"66 1","pages":"e15758"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141082048","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}

This study aimed to assess the association of two radiographic scores, the Brixia and radiographic assessment of lung edema (RALE), with oxygenation index (OI) in ventilated VLBWIs and to determine the optimal cutoff values to predict hypoxic respiratory severity.Methods: VLBWIs who received invasive respiratory support with arterial lines between January 2010 and October 2023 were enrolled in this study (n = 144). The correlation between the Brixia or RALE scores and OI was investigated. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to determine the optimal cutoff points of the two radiographic scores for predicting OI values (OI ≥5, ≥10, and ≥15).Results: The enrolled infants had a median gestational age of 27 weeks (interquartile range [IQR], 25-28 weeks) and a median birthweight of 855 g (IQR, 684-1003 g). Radiographic scoring methods correlated with the OI (Brixia score: r = 0.79, p < 0.001; RALE score: r = 0.72, p < 0.001). The optimal cutoff points for predicting OI values were as follows: Brixia score: OI ≥5, 10; OI ≥10, 13; OI ≥15, 15; RALE score: OI ≥5, 22; OI ≥10, 31; and OI ≥15, 40.Conclusions: Brixia and RALE scores are useful predictive markers of the oxygenation status in intubated VLBWIs with stable hemodynamics. These scores are easy to use and promising tools for clinicians to identify patients with a higher risk of hypoxic respiratory failure.","PeriodicalId":20039,"journal":{"name":"Pediatrics International","volume":"66 1","pages":"e15811"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142293144","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}

Their mean age was 15.3 years (with a range of ± 2.08 years) and there were 25 boys. With regard to disease type, 22 had Crohn's disease (CD), 18 had ulcerative colitis (UC), and two had unclassified inflammatory bowel disease (IBD-U). Prior to starting the program, and after its completion, HRQoL was assessed using the IMPACT III questionnaire, and sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. Patients also wore a triaxial accelerometer for 5 consecutive days before and after the completion of the exercise program to assess physical activity (PA) objectively.Results: Study participants experienced no significant increase in their IMPACT III score (from 147.6 ± 2.7 to 149.6 ± 2.7, p = 0.106) following the completion of the exercise program. The prevalence of impaired sleep quality (PSQI > 5) decreased significantly from 30.9 to 23.8% (p = 0.027). At the baseline, participants' time spent in light PA (LPA) correlated positively with their IMPACT III score (coefficient (coef.) 0.398, p = 0.013). Following the completion of the resistance training program, the changes in the IMPACT III score correlated positively with time spent in moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA) (coef. 0.329, p = 0.047) and negatively with changes in PSQI score (coef. -0.493, p = 0.001).Conclusion: The number of children with impaired sleep quality decreased significantly following the completion of a 6-month-long home-based resistance training program but improvements in HRQoL scores did not reach statistical significance.","PeriodicalId":20039,"journal":{"name":"Pediatrics International","volume":"66 1","pages":"e15788"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141793059","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}

Pediatric patients (<18 years) with a white blood cell (WBC) count of 50,000/μL or more were included in the study. Clinical information and laboratory test results were extracted from the electronic medical records. Patients were divided into the LR and HM groups. Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the factors that discriminated LR from HM.Results: We found 214 cases (115 cases in the LR group and 99 cases in the HM group) eligible for analysis. Approximately half of the LR cases were due to infectious diseases (n = 58, 50%); bacteremia and respiratory infections were the most common infections. Age younger than 2 years (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]) (2.154 [0.690-6.727]), presence of known underlying diseases (10.006 [3.119-32.102]), WBC count <60,555/μL (20.676 [6.357-67.251]), platelet count 118,000/μL or higher (15.059 [3.876-58.504]), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) below 781 U/L (4.219 [1.378-12.915]), and C-reactive protein (CRP) ≥0.91 mg/dL (10.568 [2.736-40.825]) were identified as the predictive factors for LR by logistic regression analysis. Thirty-day mortality was higher in the LR group than in the HM group but the difference was not statistically significant (13% vs. 6%, p = 0.087).Conclusions: Approximately half of the etiology of LR was infectious diseases and prognosis was poorer for LR than for HM. Age, presence of known underlying conditions, and laboratory tests, including WBC count, platelet count, LDH, and CRP, may be useful in distinguishing LR from HM.","PeriodicalId":20039,"journal":{"name":"Pediatrics International","volume":"66 1","pages":"e15837"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142847192","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}

This study aimed to evaluate the difference between BC-based PCR (BC-PCR) and PR-based PCR (PR-PCR) values in children.Methods: We compared the BC-PCR and PR-PCR values in the same first-morning urine samples without significant proteinuria in school urine screening settings. The upper limit of the reference values was set at the 97.5th percentile.Results: Notably, 133 samples from 124 individuals (female: 62%, age: median 12.3 years, range 6.3-16.9 years) were collected between August 2020 and October 2022. The diagnoses included 34 normal individuals and 99 with asymptomatic hematuria. The urinary protein (UP) concentrations measured using the BC (BC-UP) and PR (PR-UP) methods were in a linear relationship; however, the BC-UP concentrations were higher than the PR-UP concentrations (mean of differences: 11.2, 95% confidence interval (CI): 11.0-13.4 mg/dL). Also, the BC-PCR values were higher than the PR-PCR values (mean of differences: 0.090, 95% CI: 0.082-0.098 g/gCr). The BC-PCR showed a body-size-related decrease, reflecting a body-size-related urinary creatinine increase. The suggested BC-PCR reference values for proteinuria were 0.25 and 0.17 g/gCr for elementary (6-12.4 years) and junior high school students (12.5-16 years), respectively. These values were higher than those of the PR-PCR and need further studies.Conclusions: When evaluating PCR results, the urinary protein assay should be stated.","PeriodicalId":20039,"journal":{"name":"Pediatrics International","volume":"66 1","pages":"e15813"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142472359","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}
