Naturally, parents are prone to being anxious about their children amidst this pandemic. This becomes particularly serious when their children are being affected and hospitalized due to exposure to COVID-19, leading to increased anxiety and depression. Our study aims to assess the level of anxiety and depression and the predictor factors for depression and anxiety among the parents of hospitalized COVID-19-infected children. Method: This cross-sectional study incorporated 160 parents of COVID-19 infected children who were admitted to Mugda Medical College Hospital, Dhaka Shishu (Children) Hospital, and Kurmitola General Hospital between April 2020 and October 2020. Result: The study has revealed that among the 160 participants, every one in five parents (19.37%) was suffering from moderate to severe anxiety, while 43.10% of parents were suffering from moderate and moderately severe depression. More than fifty per cent of the respondents were suffering from minimal anxiety (54.38%), while 43.80% of parents were suffering from minimal depression. City dwellers were more prone to developing both anxiety and depression. Conclusion: About 43.1% of parents suffered from moderate and moderately severe depression, while 54.38% of parents suffered from minimal anxiety. These parents need to be addressed, and proper support & intervention must be ensured.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":356217,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129702372","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}

Case Report: This paper aims to report a case of scurvy in a healthy 6-year-old girl who was referred to the Department of Paediatric Dentistry for managing her hypertrophic, spongy, and erythematous gingiva for one week duration. She initially presented with a complaint of pain in her lower limbs and inability to walk. A series of investigations and radiographic examinations were carried out. Malignancy was highly suspicious hence biopsy of the gingiva was performed to confirm the diagnosis. The histopathological examination (HPE), however, interpreted the lesion as gingivitis. The gingival hypertrophy became more progressively worsening clinically. A clinical diagnosis of scurvy was then made after a literature review of her clinical presentations and investigation findings. Empirical vitamin C supplementation was started, and the patient’s condition remarkably improved within 4 days.  Conclusion: The clinical manifestation of scurvy can be variable and non-specific. Early recognition is paramount to avoid unnecessary investigations and to initiate vitamin C supplementation.","PeriodicalId":356217,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127115876","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}

Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study was conducted in children who were referred for MCUG at a tertiary centre over a 10-year period. Baseline characteristic data and the results of renal ultrasound, MCUG, with renal function were compiled and analysed. Fisher Exact test was used to compare between the grade of VUR and renal outcomes. Simple and multiple logistic regressions were used to examine the risk factors that may contribute to the development of VUR. Results: There were 136 children included in total. Forty-five had VUR, (31 [68%] high-grade, 14 [32%] low-grade, respectively). One third (33.3%) were surgically treated, 29 (64.4%) developed chronic kidney disease (CKD), and 18 (40%) developed renal scarring. Children with urinary tract infection (UTI) and hydroureter have 4.19 and 3.40 times the odds of developing VUR, respectively. Conclusion: The presence of hydroureter from ultrasound is a strong indicator of underlying VUR and justifies the rationale of requesting for MCUG, especially for those with recurrent UTI. However, this study failed to demonstrate significant association between the presence of VUR and complications of renal scarring and CKD.","PeriodicalId":356217,"journal":{"name":"Malaysian Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115754285","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}

The aim of the study was to determine the outcomes, median time and PDAs closure from diagnosis and the predictive factors which influenced the decision for PDA closure. Material and methods: A 10-year retrospective record review was performed involving patients who had undergone transcatheter closure of PDA from January 2007 to January 2017 at a single centre in the North-eastern of Peninsular Malaysia. Descriptive statistics were used to examine all variables. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was applied to determine median time for diagnosis and transcatheter closure of PDA. Multiple Cox regression analysis was used to identify predictors for early intervention of PDA closure. Results: A total of 123 patients were recruited with 65.9% of them were predominantly female. The age at the time of diagnosis was between 4-day to 14.5-year-old and median age for undergoing the procedure was 2.6-year-old (range:3-month to 15.8-year-old). The PDA size ranged between 0.2-12mm with 59% of the patients had large size PDA. Successful closure rate was achieved in 96.2 % with 3.8 % having very minimal residual shunt at 2 years post procedure. Complications were noted in 17 patients (4.0% major, 9.8% minor). Overall, the median time to diagnose and to close PDA were 6 months and 16.9 months respectively.

Methods: This study adopted a mixed-method approach with a survey questionnaire among 126 parents of 4 to 6 years-old children; and purposive phone interviews to the 6 selected participants. The questionnaire consists of two sections, quantitative and qualitative which are comprised of demographic information, children’s height and weight, Food Neophobia Scales (FNS), and an open-ended questionnaire on parents’ challenges and best practices in FN. Results: The quantitative results reported prevalence of FN was 38.1% in which higher in 5 years, girls and normal-weight children. Qualitative analysis of open-ended questionnaire and interviews outlined three major challenges in FN and three major best practices in FA. Among the reported challenges of FN parents were related to problematic feeding behavior and preferences (37.3%); negative beliefs and perception about new foods (34.5%); and lack of practical skills, ideas and meal strategies (28.2%).

Background: Reporting incidents is important in improving patients’ safety and developing a healthy culture of learning from mistakes. Method: Three self-developed scenarios, ranging from mild, moderate to severe medication administration errors, were used to identify nurses’ willingness to report an error. A validated questionnaire assessing barriers to reporting errors was adapted. The sample size calculated was 139. All 22 NICUs in government-funded hospitals were approached. Nurses were randomly recruited and given a URL to access the online questionnaire. Results: Of 182 nurses from 15 hospitals who participated, 91.2% (n=166) were willing to report medication errors and patient safety was the main concern to report it. Among the nurses (n=16, 8.8%) who chose not to report medication errors, they were worried about getting into trouble (87.5%), information being shared with managers (56.3%), disciplinary actions and medico-legal issues (50.0%).
