In this Review, we provide an update on the expanding landscape of genetic factors contributing to DEEs, encompassing over 800 reported genes. We focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms driving epileptogenesis, with an emphasis on emerging therapeutic strategies and effective treatment options. We explore noteworthy, novel genes linked to DEE phenotypes, such as <em>gBRAT-1</em> and <em>GNAO1</em>, and gene families such as <em>GRIN</em> and <em>HCN</em>. Understanding the network-level effects of gene variants will pave the way for potential gene therapy applications. Given the diverse comorbidities associated with DEEs, a multidisciplinary team approach is essential. Despite ongoing efforts and improved genetic testing, DEEs lack a cure, and treatment complexities persist. This Review underscores the necessity for larger international prospective studies focusing on both seizure outcomes and developmental trajectories.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54238,"journal":{"name":"Lancet Child & Adolescent Health","volume":"8 11","pages":"Pages 821-834"},"PeriodicalIF":19.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142437895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When untreated, they can cause life-threatening conditions. We aimed to assess the effect of a holistic, co-designed, region-wide skin control programme on the prevalence of impetigo.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>The SToP (See, Treat, and Prevent Skin Sores and Scabies) trial is a pragmatic, open-cohort, stepped-wedge cluster randomised trial involving participants aged 0–18 years in nine remote communities of the Kimberley, Western Australia. The trial involves programmatic interventions in three domains: See (skin checks and skin infection recognition training), Treat (skin infection treatment training, sulfamethoxazole–trimethoprim for impetigo, and ivermectin for scabies), and Prevent (co-designed health promotion and environmental health). Four clusters, defined as pragmatic aggregations of communities, were randomised in two steps to progressively receive the activities during ten visits. The primary outcome was the proportion of school-aged children (aged 5–9 years) with impetigo. We adopted an intention-to-treat analysis and compared the intervention with the control (usual care before the start of intervention) states to derive a time and cluster averaged effect using Bayesian modelling. This study is registered with Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry, ACTRN12618000520235.</div></div><div><h3>Findings</h3><div>Between Sept 19, 2018, and Nov 22, 2022, 915 children were consented and 777 (85%) had skin checks performed on at least one of ten possible visits between May 5, 2019, and Nov 22, 2022. Of the participants, 448 (58%) of 777 were aged 5–9 years at one or more of the visit timepoints and were eligible for primary outcome assessment. A decline in impetigo occurred across all clusters, with the greatest decline during the observational period of baseline skin checks before commencement of the interventional trial activities activities. The mean (95% credible interval) for the conditional posterior odds ratio for observing impetigo in the intervention compared with the control period was 1·13 (0·71–1·70). The probability that the intervention reduced the odds of observing impetigo was 0·33.</div></div><div><h3>Interpretation</h3><div>A decreased prevalence of impetigo during the observational period before the commencement of trial activities was sustained across the trial, attributable to the trimodal skin health initiative. Although the prevalence of impetigo reduced, there is no direct evidence to attribute this to the individual effects of the trial activities. The wholistic approach inclusive of skin checks collectively contributed to the sustained reduction in impetigo.</div></div><div><h3>Funding</h3><div>Western Australia Department of Health, Australian National Health and Medical Research Council, and Healthway.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54238,"journal":{"name":"Lancet Child & Adolescent Health","volume":"8 11","pages":"Pages 809-820"},"PeriodicalIF":19.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142407360","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients were excluded if they were aged 15 years or older, presented with severe malaria, received adjunctive antimalarials within 14 days of diagnosis, commenced primaquine more than 7 days after starting schizontocidal treatment, had a protocol violation in the original study, or were missing data on age, sex, or primaquine dose. Available individual patient data were collated and standardised. To evaluate efficacy, the risk of recurrent &lt;em&gt;P vivax&lt;/em&gt; parasitaemia between days 7 and 180 was assessed by time-to-event analysis for different total mg/kg primaquine doses (low total dose of ∼3·5 mg/kg and high total dose of ∼7 mg/kg). To evaluate tolerability and safety, the following were assessed by daily mg/kg primaquine dose (low daily dose of ∼0·25 mg/kg, intermediate daily dose of ∼0·5 mg/kg, and high daily dose of ∼1 mg/kg): gastrointestinal symptoms (vomiting, anorexia, or diarrhoea) on days 5–7, haemoglobin decrease of at least 25% to less than 7g/dL (severe haemolysis), absolute change in haemoglobin from day 0 to days 2–3 or days 5–7, and any serious adverse events within 28 days.
