In 2020, the National Guard Health Authority (NGHA) launched the Saudi Pediatric and Youth Diabetes Registry (SPYDR), for children and adolescents with diabetes. This report is about the first data and the challenges we faced during SPYDR initiation. Patients were identified from the electronic medical records of the Saudi NGHA hospitals using the International Classification of Disease (ICD-10). A trained coordinator verified the diagnosis and entered patients' details into the registry and a random sample was validated by experienced endocrinologists. The data were analyzed according to patients' demography, diabetes subtypes, duration, control, and complications. The challenges faced by the team were identified and addressed. At the time of manuscript submission, 2,344 individuals were enrolled. Their mean age at diagnosis was 9.08 (±4.27) years and 1,136 (48.46%) were females. Of these, 91.3% have type 1 (T1D), and 6.4% have type 2 diabetes (T2D). The mean HbA1c was 10.45% (±2.36) and duration of diabetes was 5.31 (±3.05) years. The main challenges included the COVID-19 pandemic, data validation, and centers' participation. However, within 12 months of initiation enrolled subjects matched the expected number. Despite the challenges, the first step of SPYDR was achieved. The initial data confirmed that T1D is the most common form of childhood diabetes, and the frequency of T2D is comparable to regional and international data. SPYDR provides the infrastructure for data sharing and collaborative research with the enrollment of patients from other Saudi healthcare institutes.","PeriodicalId":74884,"journal":{"name":"Sudanese journal of paediatrics","volume":"24 1","pages":"10-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11214787/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141478109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis of publications included the count and type of publications, the journals, and national and international collaboration assessment. The publications from FMUK show improvement over time in number and quality, a growth that is significantly influenced by national and international collaboration. These partnerships have proven to be a key driver of FMUK's research output, together with the valuable contributions of the specialized research institutions. However, there is room for improvement in the research output by increasing institutional capacity to support research and scientific communication.

Anthropometric parameters were calculated at various time points of study and Z scores were calculated. Neurobehavioral assessment of the enrolled infants was done by NAPI score at 37 and 40 weeks of CGA. After controlling for GA, weight Z scores, and head circumference Z scores, the median score of NAPI-motor development-vigor at 37 weeks and NAPI alertness orientation at 40 weeks were positively related to length Z scores at 37 weeks (p = 0.04) and 40 weeks (p = 0.035), respectively.

The objectives of this study are to determine the proportion and risk factors of LBW. A matched case-control study was conducted at Omdurman Maternity Hospital, Sudan. The study population consisted of all babies delivered in August 2016 excluding stillbirths, multiple births, and babies with insufficient data. All LBW neonates were selected using total coverage sampling as cases and matched on babies' gender with randomly selected normal birth weights as controls. The sample size was 350 babies; 175 test cases and 175 control cases. Data were collected from hospital records and six risk factors were tested: mother age, parity, gravidity, mode of delivery, hypertensive disorders, and diabetes mellitus. The proportion of LBW was 10.8% of the total number of delivered neonates which is 2,938. The bivariate analysis identified that younger mother age (p = 0.03) and hypertension (p = 0.02) were significantly associated with LBW while other factors were found statistically insignificant. Multivariable conditional logistic regression revealed that hypertensive disorders in pregnancy increase the risk for LBW almost three times [Adjusted OR = 2.98 (95% CI: 1.23-7.22), p = 0.02]. We found that hypertension is an independent risk factor for LBW. The proportion of LBWcan be reduced if hypertension is controlled by providing simple measures like proper antenatal care and health education for pregnant women.","PeriodicalId":74884,"journal":{"name":"Sudanese journal of paediatrics","volume":"24 1","pages":"56-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11214780/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141478112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
