The age of diagnosis ranged from 10 months to 13 years, with a duration of follow-up varying from 2 years to 14 years. The SDS (Z score) which reflects the deviation of height measurements from the population mean was used to assess height change at yearly intervals. Pubertal assessment was also made using the Tanner standards. 25 (69%) children showed a falling trend in mean Z scores over a 5 year follow-up period. The difference between the mean Z scores at 0 and 5 years was statistically significant (p < 0.035). However, there was no significant correlation between age of onset of disease and duration of survival with the deviation in the Z score. 11 children did not demonstrate a fall in the Z scores. There were, however, no defined factors such as age of onset, duration of follow-up, and sex distribution which could predict growth failure. Pubertal assessment showed normal development in all children with the pubertal age group (n = 11), except for 3 boys, two of whom had received testicular irradiation.</p>","PeriodicalId":76683,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of the Singapore Paediatric Society","volume":"34 1-2","pages":"49-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12477315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Routine immunisation against chickenpox. Is it time? 常规接种水痘疫苗。是时候了吗?

{"title":"Routine immunisation against chickenpox. Is it time?","authors":"C Y Hong,&nbsp;L G Goh","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Natural varicella in healthy children is normally not a severe illness. Nevertheless, the need to be away from school such as during an important examination, or from work, may be inopportune. It is therefore attractive to be able to prevent chickenpox. Such a proposition became a reality in 1974 with the development of a live attenuated varicella vaccine (the Oka strain). This has since been used in leukaemic children and children with other malignancies, and found to be safe and effective. Some of these children were immunised without complete suspension of anticancer therapy. The vaccine has also been used on healthy children and adults, mainly in Japan and North America. The results too indicated the vaccine to be safe and immunogenic, with minimal side effects. It has been shown to confer protection even if given within 3 days of exposure. The occurrence of zoster appears to be no higher than in natural infection. The vaccine has so far been shown to be protective up to 10 years post-immunisation. It appears safe enough to offer the vaccine routinely to those who are at risk of infection. One dose of vaccine given subcutaneously is usually sufficient for healthy children, but two doses are needed for immunocompromised children and adults.</p>","PeriodicalId":76683,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of the Singapore Paediatric Society","volume":"34 1-2","pages":"57-66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12477317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
