They can lead to organ failure and are triggered by various factors, including infections, malignancy, inborn errors of immunity, and autoimmune conditions. Trisomy 21 (TS21), also known as Down syndrome, is a genetic disorder associated with immune dysfunction, increased infection susceptibility, and inflammation. While TS21 has been linked to infectious-triggered hyperinflammation, its role as a primary cause of CSS has not been confirmed. <i>Case Presentation</i>. We present a case of a 16-year-old male with TS21 with fever, rash, joint pain, and abdominal symptoms. Extensive investigations ruled out infections, autoimmune conditions, malignancies, and inborn errors of immunity as triggers for a CSS. The patient's symptoms improved with treatment using IL-1 inhibition and corticosteroids.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This case reinforces that TS21 is an immune dysregulation disorder and highlights the importance of considering CSS in TS21 patients, even when triggers are unclear. The positive response to IL-1 inhibition in this patient suggests that dysregulation of the IL-1 superfamily and the NLRP3 inflammasome may contribute to CSS in TS21. This finding raises the possibility of using IL-1 inhibition as a treatment approach for CSS in TS21 patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":9623,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Pediatrics","volume":"2024 ","pages":"9946401"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10994700/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140848044","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}

Individuals who are bitten by neurotoxin snake commonly present with ptosis, ophthalmoparesis, muscle weakness, and diminished or absent of deep tendon reflexes. However, accurately determining the occurrence of a snakebite can sometimes be challenging, potentially leading to misdiagnosis. We present the case of a 2-year-old boy with sudden cardiac arrest. Following a brief resuscitation, he had return of spontaneous circulation. Despite normal electroencephalography results, the patient continued to have absence of brainstem reflexes, spontaneous breathing, and movement. Cobra antivenom was promptly initiated based on suspicions of a neurotoxic snakebite, resulting in a rapid recovery of the patient’s condition.

We treated a case for which SAP therapy was successful and prevented hypoglycemia. The patient was a baby boy who was small for his gestational age. He had hyperglycemia at 4 days of age, and a diagnosis of NDM had previously been made at another hospital. A continuous intravenous insulin infusion was initiated. At 29 days of age, the patient was transferred to our hospital for further treatment. SAP therapy was initiated at 39 days, which was successful and prevented hypoglycemia. Gradually, blood glucose levels improved. The insulin infusion was stopped to determine if any potential pump issues arose prior to discharge; the patient's blood glucose level did not increase. The decision was therefore made to discharge the patient from the hospital at 58 days of age with discontinued insulin. After discharge, genetic analysis showed hypomethylation on one of the alleles within 6q24, leading to a diagnosis of 6q24-related diabetes mellitus. Although almost all 6q24-related NDM cases are transient, no evidence exists for the appropriate timing of insulin discontinuation. Retrospective continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) analysis showed improved standard deviation (SD) values as well as improved blood glucose variability. This experience suggested SD values of CGM may be used as an index for tapering and discontinuing insulin in SAP therapy.
