The link between Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and asthma is not fully understood, particularly regarding clinical and paraclinical characteristics.Objectives: To determine the frequency of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in asthmatic children, identify clinical and paraclinical characteristics along with clinical management in children aged 6 to 15 years at Can Tho Children's Hospital, Vietnam.Method: From March 2019 to April 2021, 124 patients participated in a cross-sectional study that was done. Mycoplasma pneumoniae was detected using an immunoglobulin N (IgM) serology test.Results: Mycoplasma pneumoniae-IgM serology was positive in 32.3% asthmatic children. IgM-positive individuals had significantly greater percentages of accessory respiratory muscle contraction, coarse crackles, fever, and increased heart rate. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection occurred in 42.3% of children who were hospitalized for the first time and had asthma diagnosis. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and the severity of acute asthma exacerbations had a positive association (p<0.05). A longer hospital stay (6.74±1.91 days) and a higher exacerbation recurrence rate (32.4%) were observed in the IgM-positive group (p<0.05). Conclusions: Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections were highly prevalent in asthmatic children. Severity of acute asthma exacerbations, first-time asthma diagnosis, and recurrence of asthma exacerbation were significantly associated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.","PeriodicalId":38870,"journal":{"name":"Sri Lanka Journal of Child Health","volume":"114 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140079527","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}

It is a challenge to differentiate it from septic arthritis as they have overlapping signs and symptoms. Septic arthritis is a surgical emergency while acute osteomyelitis, when presenting early, can be treated with parenteral antibiotics. There is paucity in imaging guidelines and treatment for cases where acute septic arthritis is associated with osteomyelitis.Objectives: To analyse the role of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in cases of suspected acute bone and joint infection in the paediatric age group.Method: This is a prospective study in 38 children suspected to have acute bone and joint infections. All the patients underwent emergency appendicular MRI on suspicion of bone and joint infections. Based on the MRI findings, the patients were classified into cases of isolated septic arthritis and cases of septic arthritis with concomitant osteomyelitis. There was a change in the treatment modality between the two categories of patients. Results: In our study 14 (36.8%) cases of suspected bone and joint infection had concomitant osteomyelitis with septic arthritis. These 14 cases were seen involving the knee, hip, elbow and shoulder joints. The incidence of septic arthritis with coexisting osteomyelitis was 36.8% in our study, which was diagnosed with preoperative emergency appendicular MRI.Conclusions: Our study concludes that MRI should be included in the work up for suspected bone and joint infections provided MRI is done in a timely fashion without unnecessarily delaying surgical intervention if needed.","PeriodicalId":38870,"journal":{"name":"Sri Lanka Journal of Child Health","volume":"52 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140264557","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 dental literature has mentioned various behaviour management techniques used to reduce the dental fear and anxiety. Reframing is one such technique which is used for behaviour management with wide applications in health sciences. Hence, exploring this technique in the dental literature is of prime importance.Objectives: This scoping review aims to identify the evidence on the effectiveness of reframing as behaviour management technique in children undergoing dental treatment in the available literature.Method: The Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for scoping reviews is followed in this study and relevant published data from case reports, randomized and nonrandomized controlled clinical trials and literature reviews published without restricting time line till August 2023 from online databases of PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest were assessed by two reviewers for their suitability with our aim of study. The data were synthesized using content analysis.Results: Through literature search, 108 articles were found based on search strategy. After screening the titles, keywords and abstract and removing the duplicates only 10 articles were included for full text review. In the end only 5 articles were included for scoping review for their content analysis.Conclusions: The searched literature has revealed that reframing had changed the behaviour of the child towards dental outcomes but the literature is sparse regarding behaviour management technique for children to alleviate fear and anxiety. Also, there were no clinical trials done to know the efficacy of this technique and means to measure the outcome.","PeriodicalId":38870,"journal":{"name":"Sri Lanka Journal of Child Health","volume":"25 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140264928","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}

Adiponectin index (AI) has been used to determine IR and MetS in polycystic ovary syndrome (POCS).Objectives: To assess the usefulness of AI to determine IR and MetS in obese adolescents.Method: A cross sectional study was performed in obese adolescents from January to May 2020 in Sidoarjo and Surabaya Junior/High School, Indonesia.Results: AI had a weak negative correlation with body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference and body mass index. AI also correlated with triglyceride, systolic blood pressure, fasting insulin, homeostatic model assessment for IR (HOMA-IR) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol HDL-c. Obese adolescent with MetS had bigger AI than non-MetS (0.21+ 0.18 vs. 0.13+0.09, p=0.0000). A similar phenomenon was seen in obese adolescents with IR (0.37+0.51 vs. 0.11+0.07, p=0.000). AI had a better prognostic value to determine IR than MetS, with larger area under curve (AUC), 0.890 vs. 0.606.
