Psychopathological Impact in Patients with History of Rheumatic Fever with or without Sydenham’s Chorea
Sydenham's chorea (SC) is a post-streptococcal autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system, and it is a major criterium for the diagnosis of acute rheumatic fever (ARF). SC typically improves in 12-15 weeks, but patients can be affected for years by persistence and recurrencies of both neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms. We enrolled 48 patients with a previous diagnosis of ARF, with or without SC, in a national multicenter prospecti…
New Onset of Hepatic Steatosis Post-Severe Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C)
The emergence of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome (MIS-C) following SARS-CoV-2 infection in children and adolescents provided a new diagnostic and management challenge as there is limited knowledge about this condition and its natural history. In existing literature on MIS-C, there are currently no data about long-term outcomes. We report the case of a 14-year-old boy, with no significant past medical history, who presented a condition of multio…
Growth Hormone (GH) Therapy During the Transition Period
To investigate growth hormone (GH) secretion at the transition age, retesting of all subjects who have undergone GH replacement therapy is recommended when linear growth and pubertal development are complete to distinguish between transitional and persistent GH deficiency (GHD). Early retesting of children with idiopathic and isolated GHD (i.e., before the achievement of final height and/or the adult pubertal stage) can avoid possible over-treatm…
Maternal Stress and Coping Strategies in Developmental Dyslexia
Our study shows the clinical relevance of the burden carried by the mothers of children affected by DD and suggests the importance to assess parents, particularly mothers, to improve family compliance and clinical management of this disorder
Thirty-year persistence of obesity after presentation to a pediatric obesity clinic
The study reinforces the notion that obesity should be prevented at an early age and shows that adolescents with severe obesity and low educational degree are at greater risk of becoming obese adults
Age of onset of pubertal characteristics in boys aged 6–14 years of the Province of L’Aquila (Abruzzo, Italy)
These results are in line with those for several European and industrialized countries and do not show a significantly earlier onset of sexual maturation
