The aim of this study was to assess the learning abilities and school performance of epileptic children attending Wad Medani Children Teaching Hospital, Gezira State, Sudan. This was a prospective cross-sectional case-control facility-based study. Data were collected from the hospital database and from school records. A total of 70 patients with epilepsies were recruited as index cases and 70 age and sex-matched non-epileptic patients were included as controls. Both groups underwent comprehensive psychometric assessment. Consensus neurobehavioural diagnoses were made with respect to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. Stanford Binet Test and Battery Scales were used to assess the intelligent quotient (IQ) and learning abilities, respectively. The study population consisted of school aged (5-16 years) children; 48.6% were less than age 10 years. The male: female ratio was 1:1.1. A significant increase in learning difficulties among index cases was recorded compared to controls in all domains. The overall learning difficulties results showed a statistically significant result between index cases and controls, with p value of <0.001. Similarly, a significant reduction in IQ test results was found among the cases compared to controls. In conclusion, significant learning disabilities (LDs), deterioration in school performance and IQs were detected in children with epilepsy. All children with epilepsy should be considered vulnerable to LDs.","PeriodicalId":74884,"journal":{"name":"Sudanese journal of paediatrics","volume":"24 2","pages":"125-132"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11757689/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143048660","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 assessment, diagnosis and treatment of deteriorating paediatric patients require a comprehensive and holistic, systematic approach. However, the dynamic nature of critical illness and the need for stabilisation can often lead to missed opportunities for assessment and intervention. To improve the quality and timeliness of care for critically ill children, we developed standardised checklist proformas to guide focused and efficient assessments. These proformas, originally adapted from adult intensive care settings, have been refined over two decades through extensive clinical experience and collaboration with experts worldwide. The proformas provide a framework for diagnostic reasoning and ensure through predictive modelling that essential components of the assessment are not overlooked. By using these tools, healthcare professionals can effectively identify and address the needs of critically ill children, improving patient outcomes and enhancing the efficiency of care.","PeriodicalId":74884,"journal":{"name":"Sudanese journal of paediatrics","volume":"24 2","pages":"141-154"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11757678/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143048971","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}

As there is little published data on ALGS in Africa, our aim was to describe the presentation and outcomes of ALGS in South Africa. The study constitutes a retrospective analysis of 25 patient medical records diagnosed as ALGS at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital Pediatric Gastroenterology clinic between January 1992 and January 2020. Twenty-five patients met the diagnostic criteria for ALGS over the period investigated. Eighteen (72%) patients were less than 1 year old at first presentation. Seven patients (28%) had all five main clinical manifestations of ALGS, and the rest had an equal proportion of four and three main clinical manifestations. Cholestasis, one of the main clinical manifestations, was present in 72%; 80.0% had the typical Alagille facial features; 64% had cardiovascular disease, 36% had ocular abnormalities and 40% had skeletal abnormalities. Of the 16 patients, (64%) who presented with cardiovascular disease, seven patients presented with more than one cardiac lesion. As of January 2020, 8 (32%) patients are still being followed up at the pediatric GIT clinic, 13 (52%) patients were lost to follow-up and four patients (16%) were demised. Low- to middle-income countries, with no readily available access to genetic testing, need to rely on diagnostic criteria to make a diagnosis of Alagille syndrome in infants who present with cholestasis.","PeriodicalId":74884,"journal":{"name":"Sudanese journal of paediatrics","volume":"24 2","pages":"133-140"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11757690/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143049011","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}

All over the world, several studies have been conducted on OC. This study aims to analyze OC research outputs in Nigeria. A SCOPUS-based bibliometric analysis of OC research outputs in Nigeria was done. A total of 130 outputs, of which 90% were articles, published within a 5-2-year (1970-2022) interval were identified. These publications had a total of 1,145 citations with a h-index of 19. There was skewedness in the geopolitical distribution and ownership of Nigerian institutions engaged in OC research; the majority of which were owned by the federal government and situated in the southern parts of Nigeria. The University of Lagos was the Nigerian institution with the highest frequency (n = 52) of outputs on OC research. Adeyemo WL was the Nigerian researcher with the highest: number of publications on OC (n = 46), h-index (n = 11) and citations on OC publications (n = 474). Half of the top ten overseas institutions having researchers collaborating with OC researchers in Nigerian institutions were based in the USA. All the institutions funding OC research in Nigeria were foreign and predominantly in the USA. The majority of the 10 most-cited OC outputs from Nigerian institutions were first authored by foreign researchers. There is a need to locally strengthen OC research capacity in Nigeria, especially in the area of funding, and institutional strengthening.","PeriodicalId":74884,"journal":{"name":"Sudanese journal of paediatrics","volume":"24 2","pages":"114-124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11757679/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143048949","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}
