Phenotyping Pediatric Long Covid
Background: The aim of this study was to identify patient clusters based on acute symptom profiles and individual characteristics most likely to develop pediatric post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), as well as clusters among patients with PASC based on post-acute sequelae and associated characteristics. Methods: This multicenter cohort study in 12 Italian pediatric units enrolled patients aged 0-17 years within three months of a l…
An Epidemic of Parvovirus B19-Induced Aplastic Crises in Pediatric Patients with Hereditary Spherocytosis Following the Covid-19 Pandemic
Background: Parvovirus B19 is the major cause of transient aplastic crisis in children with hereditary spherocytosis (HS) inhibiting erythropoiesis and leading to a severe drop in hemoglobin levels, requiring hospitalization and transfusional support. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the circulation of non-COVID respiratory viruses, such as parvovirus B19, initially declined but subsequently increased abruptly following the relaxation of containment…
Chronic Non-Bacterial Osteomyelitis (CNO) in a Tertiary Center in Southern Italy
Background/Objectives: Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is a rare autoinflammatory disease characterized by chronic sterile uni- or multifocal osteomyelitis. The treatment of CNO is mostly empirical and the outcome of the disease has not yet been standardized. The aims of this study were to correlate clinically active lesions with radiological signs of inflammation and to evaluate the outcomes in terms of symptoms and radiological signs …
Successful Eltrombopag Therapy in a Child with MYH9-Related Inherited Thrombocytopenia
Inherited thrombocytopenias represents a heterogenous group of diseases characterized by a congenital reduction in the platelet count that could lead to a bleeding tendency. MYH9-related disorders are characterized by large platelets and congenital thrombocytopenia. Thrombopoietin-receptor agonists: eltrombopag and romiplostim are currently approved in many countries for the treatment of different forms of acquired thrombocytopenia, such as immun…
Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG) Reduction
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) represents an endocrine condition affecting 5-18% of adolescents, frequently in association with obesity, metabolic alterations, and liver dysfunction. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors for developing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in a cohort of PCOS adolescents. Thirty-two girls were assessed for anthropometric and biochemical markers: total cholesterol (TC), high den…
Out-of-Season Epidemic of Respiratory Syncytial Virus during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is the most common cause of hospitalization in young children. In the last 2 years, public health measures aimed at controlling the spread of SARS-CoV-2 have affected the epidemiology and seasonality of RSV worldwide. The aim of this descriptive retrospective observational study was to describe the characteristics of children hospitalized with RSV in an academic tertiary care hospital in Southern Italy …
Assessment of Cardiovascular Function in Childhood Leukemia Survivors
Childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors who underwent chemotherapy with anthracyclines have an increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of the study was to evaluate left and right cardiac chamber performances and vascular endothelial function in childhood ALL survivors. Fifty-four ALL survivors and 37 healthy controls were enrolled. All patients underwent auxological evaluation, blood pressure measurements, biochemical parameters of …
Promoting Sports Practice in Persons with Hemophilia
Historically, people with hemophilia have been warned to avoid physical activities as a possible cause of bleeding; however, currently, sport is considered necessary, especially in the developmental age, for providing a good quality of life. A survey was proposed to a group of hematologists and sports physicians working in Puglia, Italy, to explore their approach to physical activities for their patients with hemophilia and to obtain suggestions …
