Diagnosis is often delayed due to lack of awareness not only by the lay public but also by emergency and front-line health care<span> workers. Despite the relative rarity of childhood stroke, the impact on morbidity, mortality and the economic burden for families and society is high, especially in poorly resourced settings. The risk factors for stroke in children differ from the adult population where lifestyle factors play a more important role. The developmental aspects of the pediatric cerebral </span></span>vasculature<span><span> and hematological maturational biology affects the clinical presentation, investigation, management and outcomes of childhood stroke in a different way compared to adults. The management of childhood stroke is currently based on expert guidelines and evidence extrapolated from adult studies. Hyperacute therapies that have revolutionized the treatment of stroke in adults cannot be easily applied to children at this stage due to the diagnostic delays, diverse risk factors and developmental considerations mentioned above. Much has been achieved in the understanding of genetic, acquired, preventable and recurrent stroke risk factors in the past decade through international collaborative efforts like the International </span>Pediatric Stroke Study. Evidence for the prevention and treatment of childhood stroke remains elusive. Even more elusive are relevant and achievable management guidelines for pediatric stroke in resource-limited settings. This narrative review focusses on the current management practices globally, emphasizing the challenges, and gaps in knowledge of pediatric stroke in low- and middle-income countries and other areas with limited resources. Priorities and some potential solutions at national and local level are suggested for these settings.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":49284,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Pediatric Neurology","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100996"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10353324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, this paper reviewed geographic/ethnic differences in pediatric stroke risk factors highlighting those reported in low- and middle-income countries, and proposes a childhood arterial ischemic stroke diagnostic algorithm for resource limited settings. Stroke risk factors include cardiac disorders, infectious diseases, cerebral arteriopathies, hematologic disorders, inflammatory diseases, thrombophilia and genetic conditions. Infection of the central nervous system particularly tuberculous meningitis, is a leading cause of pediatric arterial ischemic stroke in developing countries. Stroke should be considered in children with acute focal neurologic deficit especially in the presence of aforementioned risk factors. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging with angiography is the neuroimaging modality of choice but if unavailable, cranial computed tomography with angiography may be performed as an alternative. If both are not available, transcranial doppler together with neurologic exam may be used to screen children for arterial ischemic stroke. Etiological diagnosis follows with the aid of appropriate laboratory tests that are available in each level of care. International collaborative research on stroke risk factors that are prevalent in low and middle income countries will provide information for drafting of stroke care guidelines that are universal yet inclusive taking into consideration regional differences in available resources with the goal of reducing global stroke burden.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49284,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Pediatric Neurology","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100997"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10352863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite increasing research on neuropsychological outcomes over the past decade, evidence for effective therapies and interventions for the most commonly reported cognitive and behavioral challenges is still limited. The most widely prescribed interventions address more overt deficits in sensorimotor and speech/language functions, yet interventions for higher-order cognitive, linguistic and behavioral deficits are notably less defined. Moreover, concepts of rehabilitation in adult stroke cannot be easily translated directly to pediatric populations because the effect of stroke and recovery in the developing brain takes a very different course than in the mature brain. In </span>pediatric stroke, neuropsychological deficits often emerge gradually over time necessitating a long-term approach to intervention. Furthermore, family and school context often play a much larger role. The goal of this review is to describe cognitive and behavioral interventions for perinatal and childhood stroke, as motor rehabilitation is covered elsewhere in this issue. We also discuss cognitive aspects of current rehabilitative therapies and technology. Acknowledging the current limited state of stroke-specific rehabilitation research in children, findings from pediatric </span>acquired brain injury intervention and use of transdiagnostic approaches lend important insights. Because there is limited support for single domain (cognitive) trainings and translation of research rehabilitation programs to clinical practice can be challenging, the value of holistic multidisciplinary approaches to improve everyday function in children and adolescents following stroke is emphasized.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49284,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Pediatric Neurology","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100998"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10353325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Genetic discoveries over the last decade pointed to monogenic disorders as a rare but significant cause of </span>ischemic stroke<span> in children and young adults, including small vessel and arterial ischemic stroke. These discoveries contributed to the understanding that stroke in children may be a sign of an underlying genetic disease. The identification of these diseases requires a detailed medical and family history collection, a careful clinical evaluation<span> for the detection of systemic symptoms and signs, and neuroimaging assessment. Establishing an accurate etiological diagnosis and understanding the genetic risk factors for stroke are essential steps to decipher the underlying mechanisms, optimize the design of tailored prevention strategies, and facilitate the identification of novel therapeutic targets in some cases. Despite the increasing recognition of monogenic causes of stroke, genetic disorders remain understudied and therefore under-recognized in children with stroke. Increased awareness among healthcare providers is essential to facilitate accurate diagnosis in a timely manner. In this review, we provide a summary of the main single-gene disorders which may present as ischemic stroke in childhood and describe their clinical manifestations. We provide a set of practical suggestions for the diagnostic work up of these uncommon causes of stroke, based upon the stroke subtype and imaging characteristics that may suggest a monogenic diagnosis of ischemic stroke in children.

In neonates, chorioamnionitis or intrauterine inflammation has been implicated as a common risk factor for AIS. In infants and children, recent investigations demonstrated that even minor childhood infections are associated with subsequent increased risk for AIS. Post-infectious inflammatory mechanisms following infections with herpesviruses may lead to focal cerebral arteriopathy (FCA), one of the most common causes of AIS in a previously healthy child. Other agents such as parvovirus B19, dengue virus, and SARS-CoV-2 have recently been implicated as other potential triggers. Infections are compelling treatable stroke risk factors, with available therapies for both pathogens and downstream inflammatory effects. However, infections are common in childhood, while stroke is uncommon. The ongoing VIPS II (Vascular effects of Infection in Pediatric Stroke) study aims to identify the array of pathogens that may lead to childhood AIS and whether either unusual strains or unusual combinations of pathogens explain this paradox. Immune modulation with corticosteroids for FCA is another active area of research, with European and U.S. trials launching soon. The results of these new pediatric stroke studies combined with findings emerging from the larger field of immune-mediated post-infectious diseases will likely lead to new approaches to the prevention and treatment of pediatric stroke. This review highlights recent developments from both clinical and animal model research enhancing our understanding of this relationship between infection, inflammation, and stroke in neonates and children.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49284,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Pediatric Neurology","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100995"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1071909122000432/pdfft?md5=0d01239ebe0bdea51b78260972c1aa2b&pid=1-s2.0-S1071909122000432-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10353323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
