A variety of COVID-19 vaccines have been developed worldwide for adults and children over the age of 12 years, and the effectiveness of the vaccine in preventing symptomatic diseases and hospitalization is being studied. One of the major obstacles to COVID-19 vaccination that has emerged along with the global immunization program is vaccine hesitation or disapproval. The world health organization (WHO) has reported vaccine hesitation as one of the 10 global health threats of 2019. This is also related to COVID-19. The present review, explore the current evidence on COVID-19 vaccination platforms and vaccination efficacy, safety, and adverse effects among strategic sub-populations, including elderly people, people with chronic disease (diabetes, cancer), pregnant and lactating women, children, youth, and vaccination willingness or hesitancy among the target population.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44263652","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 treatment options for dysmenorrhea are medications and alternative therapies. The tendency to use alternative therapies, such as hypnotherapy has increased. Objectives: This study aimed to carry out a narrative review to evaluate the effect of hypnosis on dysmenorrhea in adolescents. Methods: EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, PubMed, Cochrane library ProQuest and clinicaltrials.gov were searched up to 2021 using the following keywords “dysmenorrhea”, “hypnosis”. The quality of studies was assessed by Cochrane collaboration’s tool and the risk of bias in the non-randomized studies of interventions (ROBINS-I) tool. Results: Nine studies with a sample size of 5203 participants were included. The hypnosis intervention similar to drug therapy was effective in reducing the intensity of dysmenorrhea and improving the women’s quality of life. Dysmenorrhea pain scores in hypnosis and drug therapy groups were significantly lower than those at baseline, but pain scores in the drug therapy group were significantly lower than in the hypnosis group. Conclusions: Hypnosis can provide lasting pain relief compared to NSAIDs. Therefore, it is recommended that hypnosis as a complementary or alternative therapy reduce the intensity of dysmenorrhea in adolescents.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47919854","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}

Children with bronchiolitis are generally well-appearing and active despite being tachypneic or hypoxic. Objectives: This study aims to identify the predictors of hypoxia in children with bronchiolitis, as well as to find the average duration of oxygen requirement and hospitalization in children with hypoxia. Methods: A total of 65 children between the age group of 1 month to 2 years with bronchiolitis were included in the study. Data were collected retrospectively from case records and prospective cases were consecutively enrolled. Oxygen saturation was monitored in all hospitalized children. An oxygen saturation (SpO2)<92% was considered hypoxia. The relationship between presenting clinical features and subsequent development of hypoxia was assessed using the Pearson chi-square test. Results: The presenting features of bronchiolitis in our study were cough, fever, tachypnea, increased work of breathing, and wheezing. Cough was the most common symptom and fever was the least common symptom. A total of 59.3% of children with a cough had hypoxia. Of the 23 children who had a fever, 52.1% of them had hypoxia. Among 51 children with tachypnea, 68.6% had hypoxia (P=0.001). Among 57 children whose respiratory work was increased, 68% of children had hypoxia (P=0.000); 71.8% of children with wheezing had hypoxia (P=0.05). Conclusions: Our study shows that in children with bronchiolitis, the presence of tachypnea, increased work of breathing and wheezing increases the risk of developing hypoxia. Identifying these predictors of hypoxia can help as a guide for deciding on the need for hospitalization in children with bronchiolitis.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41995757","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}

Based on the available data, very few articles exist about the application of this technique when suturing children. Objectives: This study was designed to determine the effect of distraction by watching cartoons on the level of pain during preparation before suturing children in the emergency ward. Methods: This study is a randomized controlled trial. The research population included all children aged 3-12 years who were referred to the emergency ward of Bu Ali Sina Hospital in Sari City, Iran. Forty-three subjects were selected from each group. In the intervention group, playing cartoons on the tablet was initiated from the time of placing the child on the bed for suturing, and continued until the end of the anesthetic injection, and this time was recorded. In the control group, the suturing was performed conventionally. The behavioral reactions of both groups were measured twice based on the pain behavioral reactions scale. The first time was when the child was placed on the bed and before cleaning for the anesthetic agent, while the second time was observed and recorded by the researcher immediately after injecting the anesthetic agent. Results: The comparison of mean pain before injecting the anesthetic agent (after playing the cartoon) showed a significant difference between the intervention and control groups based on Mann-Whitney test (P=0.0001). The comparison of mean pain immediately after termination of anesthetic injection also showed a significant difference in both the intervention and control groups based on the Mann-Whitney test (P=0.0001). Based on the results of the present research, the pain in the intervention group was less before the anesthetic injection and less in the control group immediately after the injection. Conclusions: The results suggested that distraction from watching cartoons has a positive effect on reducing the pain of preparation before suturing children. Therefore, this technique can be used in emergency departments.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42956831","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}

Objectives: The present systematic review and meta-analysis aim to explore the prevalence and risk factors associated with neonatal hypoglycemia in Iran. Methods: A systematic search was performed in Iranian and international databases, including SID, MagIran, Barakat Knowledge Network System, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and the Google Scholar search engine searched for relevant articles using valid keywords. The search process was updated until September 28, 2021. Data were analyzed using STATA 14 software, and the significance level for all tests was considered P<0.05. Results: In 14 reviewed articles with a sample size of 18217, the prevalence of hypoglycemia in Iranian newborns was 29% [95%CI: 21%, 37%, P=0.0001] (64% in boys and 37% in girls). The hypoglycemia prevalence was 67% in infants born via cesarean section compared to 24% in vaginally delivered infants. The lowest and highest prevalence of neonatal hypoglycemia was observed in Mashhad (12%) and Arak (53%), respectively. The most common risk factors for neonatal hypoglycemia in Iran were infant prematurity (61%), septicemia (45%), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) (26%), small for gestational age (SGA) (26%), maternal diabetes (21%), hypocalcemia (19%), intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) (9%) and perinatal asphyxia (8%). Conclusions: Neonatal hypoglycemia is very common in Iran, affecting nearly one-third of Iranian newborns. The prevalence of hypoglycemia in boys was almost twice as high as that in girls and 2.5 times higher in infants born by cesarean section than in infants delivered vaginally. Furthermore, prematurity was reportedly the most common risk factor for neonatal hypoglycemia in Iran.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48823625","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}

Objectives: This study aims to report long-term disability and poor outcome predictors of GBS in children. Medline (via Pubmed), Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus database was searched for relevant studies until April 2022, with a designated search strategy, using MeSH terms and free keywords. Methods: Studies evaluating functional outcomes of GBS in children with at least one year of follow-up were included. All studies achieved acceptable quality for inclusion. After selecting studies based on inclusion criteria, data were extracted based on a modified standardized Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) data extraction tool, and the methodological quality of studies were reviewed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal tool. Results: Fourteen studies were included in this systematic review consisting of 1141 patients (647 males, 466 females, and 28 unclassified). Follow-up duration varied from one year to 11 years. The prevalence of the GBS subtype was as follows, acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathies (AIDP) 46.6%, acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) 30.2%, acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN) 6.8% and Miller fisher 6.1%. The most commonly reported poor outcome after at least one year of follow-up was walking disabilities and gait disorders. Motor deficits and weakness, sensory complaints, including pain or paresthesia and fatigue were other prevalent residual symptoms. Axonal form of GBS was the most reported poor outcome predictor, followed by Hughes disability score >3, a delay in independent walking, artificial ventilation, and rapid progression of symptoms. Conclusions: Despite the good prognosis of GBS in children, they could suffer long-term sequels, especially in walking abilities and gait. The axonal form is considered a crucial poor predictive factor.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43505229","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}

Objectives: This review study aims to investigate the management methods, including control, prevention, and treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) diseases in children in the Middle East caused by contaminated water through WHO. Methods: For this purpose, Scopus, Google scholar, PubMed, SID, Irandoc, and up-to-date databases were searched without time limitation. Keywords included contaminated water, pediatric, GI diseases, and WHO. In this study, the full text of various articles in Persian and English was used. After removing duplicate articles and articles that did not fit the topic of the study, 54 articles were finally selected. Results: Based on the findings, the world health organization has reported that diarrhea, polio, hepatitis A, and cholera are the most common GI infectious diseases caused by contaminated water in children in the Middle East. The present reports of waterborne disease represent only a small proportion of the total number of cases of this disease in the population. In some areas, it has been shown that investments in water and wastewater supply by responsible institutions can provide a net economic gain by reducing negative health impacts and healthcare costs. Results The results of this study indicate that most of the diseases caused by contaminated water affect children, due to low ability to observe personal hygiene and the state of the child’s immune system, which often leads to the death of children. Conclusions: The lack of diagnosis and insufficient prevalence of these diseases in some Middle Eastern countries, followed by the lack of attention to the prevention and control of waterborne diseases, threatens the health policies of these countries. International organizations, especially the world health organization and the united nations children’s fund, play a vital role in addressing and controlling this problem.","PeriodicalId":43059,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatrics Review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44475598","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}
