The caregiver must also be evaluated for the correct rehabilitation program. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the pain, quality of life and impact levels of caregivers of OBPP children. Materials and Methods: A total of 102 individuals, consisting of 51 individuals with an average age of 33.5 ± 4.6 who cared for children with OBPP and 51 individuals with an average age of 32.15 ± 4.67 who cared for typically developing children, participated in the study. Participants' physical and sociodemographic information was questioned, and the World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale-Brief Version Turkishwas used to assess their quality of life. The Cornell Musculoskeletal Disorder Questionnaire was used to assess musculoskeletal pain, and the Impact on Family Scale (IFS) was used to determine the impact on family. Results: Caregivers of children with OBPP had significantly higher lower back, right upper arm, and hip disorders (P = .019, P = .021, P = .033) and financial condition, personal stress, coping, and total impact score (P = .000, P = .002, P = .000, P = .009), which are among the IFS sub-parameters. No significant difference was found in the quality of life between the groups (P = .423, P = .298, P = .625, P = .167, P = .991). Conclusion: The present study revealed that caring for a child with OBPP affected the caregiver physically and mentally. Furthermore, we think that caregivers should also be considered and evaluated in detail in the strategies related to the rehabilitation process.","PeriodicalId":75267,"journal":{"name":"Turkish archives of pediatrics","volume":"60 2","pages":"141-146"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11963290/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143652368","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}

To the best of our knowledge, however, no reports exist on RB in Albania. We aimed to present the first case series of RB in Albania, including presentation, treatment, and outcome of patients. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective case series of patients diagnosed with RB from 1998 to 2023 at a single country Mother Teresa University Hospital Center in Albania. Epidemiologic and clinical data were extracted from follow-up clinical charts. Results: During the 25-year study period, 22 patients were diagnosed with RB, of whom 59% were females. The average age at diagnosis was 21.8 months (SD-18.8 months). In 13 (59%) cases, the disease was diagnosed within the first year of life, and less than 5% were diagnosed after the age of 5 years. Overall, 18% of patients had family history of RB, and 41% had bilateral RB. The time from the first symptom to diagnosis was less than a month in 32% of cases, while 77% of patients were diagnosed within 4 months. The main presenting symptom was leukocoria in 6 (27%) cases, strabismus in 3 (14%) cases, and combination of both in 3 (14%) cases. Treatment was mainly a combination of enucleation and systemic chemotherapy in 15 (71%) cases. Only 13 (59%) patients continued treatment within Albania, with the rest being treated abroad. Conclusion: We present the first cohort of children with RB from Albania, a country with limited diagnostic and treatment resources. The advanced disease states of these children underscore the importance of implementing national pediatric screening programs.","PeriodicalId":75267,"journal":{"name":"Turkish archives of pediatrics","volume":"60 2","pages":"159-163"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11963307/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143652512","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}

Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study utilized the medical records of pediatric patients with newly diagnosed T1DM. Extracted data included age at initial diagnosis, presenting clinical manifestations, standard laboratory findings, and thyroid function panel results. Results: The sample included 208 T1DM patients, with a higher proportion of males (54.8%) than females (45.2%). Initial assessment revealed that 69.2% of patients were euthyroid, 24.5% exhibited euthyroid sick syndrome (ESS), 5.8% compensated hypothyroidism, and 0.5% primary hypothyroidism. About 76.5% of patients initially diagnosed with ESS were euthyroid at the second visit. Analysis confirmed a significant difference in the distribution of euthyroid and ESS patients between the first and second visits (P < .001). Temporal analysis indicated that thyroid function tended to normalize within 1-2 weeks of the initial presentation. Conclusion: Tests should be performed within 1-2 weeks following clinical stabilization to evaluate thyroid function in newly diagnosed T1DM patients. However, patients with a history of thyroid disease, or those with clinical signs indicative of thyroid dysfunction, should undergo immediate testing at the time of diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":75267,"journal":{"name":"Turkish archives of pediatrics","volume":"60 2","pages":"153-158"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11963386/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143652558","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}

Twenty neonatologists from 16 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) participated in the study. Results: During the study period, a total of 3327 LPT infants were admitted to the participating NICUs. Among them, 1866 infants experienced respiratory distress, and 288 received surfactant treatment. In this study, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) was the most common indication for surfactant administration, affecting 158 infants (54.8%), followed by congenital pneumonia in 79 infants (27.4%) and transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN) in 32 infants (11.1%).

The role of pharmacological treatment in the treatment of arrhythmia in children is limited. Therefore, ablation has an important role in the treatment of arrhythmia. The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) after catheter ablation. Materials and Methods: Patients and their parents completed the scales independently but simultaneously, before ablation and 6 months after ablation. Seventy-two children and their parents were included in the study. The QoL Scale was designed as a five-point Likert scale and was divided into 2 age groups, 8-12 years and 13-18 years, with each age group having separate child and parent forms. The scale forms consisted of 4 sub-sections to understand physical, emotional, social, and school functioning. Results: Of the ablations, 65 (90.3%) were successful, 5 (6.9%) were unsuccessful and 2 (2.8%) were suboptimally successful. Accordingly, there was a statistically significant increase in quality of life after successful ablation (P =.001). There was also a significant difference in the magnitude of the increase in QoL according to the type of ablation (P =.025). However, when the sex, age groups, and sub-diagnosis groups of the patients were compared, no significant difference was observed in terms of change in quality of life. Conclusion: This study is the first in Türkiye to investigate the impact of catheter ablation on QoL of children who underwent catheter ablation for various cardiac arrhythmias.","PeriodicalId":75267,"journal":{"name":"Turkish archives of pediatrics","volume":"60 2","pages":"200-207"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11963330/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143652504","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}
