Coma was assessed using Blantyre and Glasgow scores. The study involved all children with coma during more than 24 hours after admission and with temperature higher or equal to a 38°C. \u0000Findings: Mean age was 56 months and sex ratio 1.1. In addition to coma, respiratory distress, anemia and convulsions were identified respectively in 24, 16 and 31 cases. 61.9% of isolated pathogens were Plasmodium Falciparum but only case of N meningitidis and one case of Klebsiella P were registered. Bacterial meningitis with unidentified pathogen was found in 10 cases and no etiology was identified in 25 cases. Antimalarial drug was used in 61.9% of cases and probabilistic antibiotic therapy in 36% of cases. After-effects such as aphasia and blindness were observed on discharge of the patient in 14.4% of the cases. Death rate was 6.2%. Coma duration higher than 7 days was associated with occurrence of after-effects (P=0.04). \u0000Conclusion: Viral culture should be put in place in Benin in order to extend etiological research. The fight against malaria must be pursued.","PeriodicalId":22655,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of clinical Pediatrics","volume":"48 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86190533","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}

They remain a reason of morbidity related to the access to treatment and socio-economic problems. Objective: The aim of this research was to study the prevalence and the factors associated to the tooth decay in scholar environment in Parakou in 2014. Methods: It was across sectional descriptive and analytic survey which has taken place from May to June 2014. School children aged five to fourteen years old in public primary schools of Parakou were included. The sampling was probabilistic and multi-stages (three degrees). The school children and their mothers answered a questionnaire completed with an oral-dental examination. Results: Our survey was based upon 536 school children and their mothers. The mean age of the school children was 9.61 years ± 1.82 year and the sex - ratio was 1.22. The tooth brush was the most used brushing instrument used (60.82%). In 60.82% of the cases, the school children consumed sweets at least once a day. The average DMFT index was of 1.23. The prevalence of tooth decay was 38.62%. Factors associated with the tooth decay were the consumption of sweets (p=0.032), the control of teeth cleanness by parent after brushing (p=0,007), the dental pains (p=0,000), the education level (p=0,000) and the living environment (p=0,000). Conclusion: These results confirm the existence of the tooth decay among scholars. It is necessary to implement preventive measures among them.","PeriodicalId":22655,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of clinical Pediatrics","volume":"12 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88821877","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}
