Aim: To identify the Prevalence of nutritional anemia in children of high socioeconomic status. Methods: Children between 6 months and 14 years of age belonging to high socioeconomic status, admitted in pediatric ward of Kauvery Hospital, a tertiary center at Trichy were included in the study. Children with hemolytic anemia, chronic illnesses, and those who received blood transfusion were excluded from the study. The World Health Organization classification was used for grading the severity of anemia as mild, moderate, and severe based on hemoglobin levels for the age. Modified Kuppuswamy scale 2016 was used to assess the socioeconomic status of the children. Children belonging to upper and upper middle socioeconomic status were included in the study. Results: The overall prevalence of anemia among the study population was 44.5%. Out of 400 subjects, 178 participants were anemic. Of the 178 anemic children, 78.1% were in the age group of 6 months–5 years, 20.2% in 5–11 years, and 1.7% in 12–14 years. Among children between 6 and 23 months, 75 were anemic. Almost all patients showed microcytic hypochromic anemia. There were a significantly higher number of overweight and obese children among those anemic in all age groups. Conclusion: This study concludes that every other child is anemic even in families of high socioeconomic status, especially <2 years of age. There is an urgent need to screen and treat all children regardless of their socioeconomic status or body mass index.","PeriodicalId":22476,"journal":{"name":"The Indian journal of child health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82587055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Anthropometric measurements and non-invasive tests (liver function tests and USG abdomen) help in early recognition of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and reduce consequent morbidity and mortality. Aim: This study aims to study the occurrence of NASH in obese and overweight children and to derive the correlation of NASH with clinical and biochemical parameters in overweight and obese children. Methods: This hospital-based prospective study included children (age?18 years) who met the inclusion criteria. Diagnosis of NASH was based on the USG abdomen. Measurements included anthropometry, ultrasonography, fasting glucose, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lipid profile and additional parameters of blood pressure, fasting insulin, and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). The variables were compared between children with and without NASH. Results: A total of 146 patients (female: 51.4%, male: 48.6%) were enrolled in the study. The most common age group affected was 11–18 years (50.7%) followed by 6–10 years (43.2%) and <5 years (6.2%). The occurrence of NASH in the study group was 63% of obese and overweight children. Mean weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, waist-hip ratio, blood pressure (BP), serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT), fasting insulin level, and HOMA-IR were significantly higher in children with NASH. There was a significant association between SGPT and NASH. Elevated SGPT of 79.3% and 1.9% were observed among the subjects with and without NASH, respectively. Conclusion: Anthropometric indices and biochemical parameters were more elevated in the NASH group showing its direct correlation with hepatic steatosis.","PeriodicalId":22476,"journal":{"name":"The Indian journal of child health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80915031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Breastfeeding has been shown to play a role in the prevention of CVD. The International Code for Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes (BMSs) and its relevant resolutions (the Code) were adopted by the World Health Assembly to protect breastfeeding. Aim: This study aims to study the relationships between breastfeeding rates and laws that cover the code with CVD risk factors (obesity and blood pressure) and death from non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Methods: Data for scores given to national laws and provisions under the Code for protecting breastfeeding were obtained from the World Health Organization (WHO)/International Baby Food Action Network report in 2020. Data for exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) during infancy were obtained from United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund Global data. The WHO data for CVD risk factors in adults (>18 years) included overweight, obesity raised blood pressure (RBP), raised blood glucose level (RBGL), and death from NCDs. Results: There were significant negative correlations of overweight, obesity, raised BP, and death from NCD with EBF and with scores given to national laws that cover the Code. RBGL correlated negatively with overweight and obesity. Overweight, obesity, RBP, and death from NCDs correlated inversely with provisions in the national laws for monitoring and enforcement at p<0.015. Engagement of health staff and systems and promotion in health facilities correlated with RBP and death from NCDs at p<0.01. Conclusions: Prevention of CVD can benefit from improving breastfeeding rates by the enactment of national laws that cover the Code in its entirety. All countries should enact, monitor, and enforce these laws for promoting and protecting breastfeeding and preventing long-term consequences of feeding BMS.","PeriodicalId":22476,"journal":{"name":"The Indian journal of child health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84721339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This condition is termed as retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Aim: The aim of the study is to study the postnatal weight gain pattern of preterm infants (Age < 32 weeks) and risk factors of ROP in a tertiary care center and to validate the lower birth weight and gestational age (GA) for ROP. Methods: Hospital-based study on 110 preterm neonates admitted in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) who fulfilled the criteria for ROP screening. On screening, 55 neonates were identified to have ROP and 55 neonates identified to have no ROP. The profiles of ROP and risk factors were documented according to the International Classification for ROP recommendations. The data were analyzed for GA, birth weight, and risk factors predisposing to ROP. Results: A total of 110 preterm neonates were screened, out of which, 55 had ROP. The mean GA (P = 0.002), Apnea (P = 0.001), ventilation (P = 0.001), and surfactant (P = 0.001) were observed a significant difference. Further, a significant difference in weight gain pattern in the two groups (P < 0.05) was also observed. The group without ROP had a better weight gain pattern than the group with ROP. Conclusion: Our study revealed prematurity, low birth weight, and birth weight increasing patterns were found to be strong predictors of ROP. GA, apnea, ventilation, and surfactant were found to be statistically significant factors associated with ROP.","PeriodicalId":22476,"journal":{"name":"The Indian journal of child health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90416023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim: Our study aims to assess the emerging patterns of these disorders in patients attending an urban child guidance clinic in Kolkata. Method: A retrospective analysis of the demographic data of patients attending the clinic over the period of 1 year (April 2018–March 2019) was performed. Results: A significant 55.6% of the total 651 patients in our study were children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Children <5 years of age constituted a significant percentage (55.3%) of patients attending the clinic and boys were in significantly larger numbers (74.8%) compared to girls (25.2%). About 52.3% of the children came from Kolkata, 35.4% from other districts of West Bengal, 5.4% from other East Indian states, and 6.9% from the neighboring country Bangladesh. Conclusion: ASD, a developmental disability of public health importance affecting both child and family, has been identified in a significantly large number of children in our study. This may be attributed to increased community awareness resulting in earlier identification/referral of cases; although an actual rise in incidence is also a possibility. The male bias noted in the study is ascribed to a significantly larger number of boys with ASD, behavioral issues, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, learning disabilities, and intellectual impairment.","PeriodicalId":22476,"journal":{"name":"The Indian journal of child health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83389254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
