RESUMO
Sleep patterns of 419 toddlers with congenital heart disease were comparable with the normative population except for increased likelihood across the cohort of sleeping in parents' room and increased disrupted sleep in children aged 18-23 months. Disrupted sleep patterns were associated with lower maternal education and increased medical complexity.

OBJECTIVES: To prospectively assess rates and detailed predictors of morbidity and mortality among HIV-exposed uninfected children and HIV-unexposed children in Botswana in a more recent era. STUDY DESIGN: We enrolled HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected mothers and their children in the prospective observational Tshipidi study at 2 sites (1 city and 1 village) in Botswana from May 2010-July 2012. Live-born children and their mothers were followed for 24 months postpartum. Detailed sociodemographic data, health, and psychosocial characteristics were collected at baseline and prospectively, and health outcomes ascertained. Mothers chose infant feeding method with counselling. RESULTS: A total of 893 live-born HIV-uninfected children (436 HIV-exposed uninfected, 457 HIV-unexposed) were followed. HIV-infected mothers had a median CD4 count of 410 cells/mm3, 32% took 3-drug antiretroviral treatment during pregnancy, 67% took only zidovudine, and 1% took <2 weeks of any antiretrovirals antepartum. Twenty four-month vital status was available for 888 (99.4%) children. HIV-exposed uninfected children had a significantly higher risk of death compared with children of HIV-uninfected mothers (5.0% vs 1.8%) (adjusted hazard ratio 3.27, 95% CI 1.44-7.40). High collinearity between maternal HIV status and child feeding method precluded analysis of these factors as independent predictors of mortality. Preterm birth, low birth weight, and congenital anomaly were also associated with mortality (in separate analyses), but maternal socioeconomic factors, depression, substance use, and social support were not significant predictors. CONCLUSIONS: The strongest predictors of 24-month mortality among children in Botswana were HIV exposure and formula feeding, although the relative contribution of these factors to child health could not be separated.

OBJECTIVES: To assess psychiatric disorders and function in adolescents with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) without and with a genetic diagnosis and to evaluate associations of functioning with medical factors, IQ, and demographics. STUDY DESIGN: Adolescents with TOF (n = 91) and 87 healthy referents completed a clinician-rated structured psychiatric interview, parent-/self-report measures of psychopathology, and brain magnetic resonance imaging. Twenty-three of the adolescents with TOF had a known genetic diagnosis. RESULTS: The prevalence of anxiety disorders did not differ significantly between adolescents with TOF without genetic diagnosis (n = 68) and referents. Adolescents with TOF and a genetic diagnosis showed an increased lifetime prevalence of anxiety disorder (43%) and lower global psychosocial functioning (median, 70; IQR, 63-75) compared with adolescents with TOF without genetic diagnosis (15% and 83; IQR, 79-87, respectively; P = .04 and <.001, respectively) and referents (6% and 85; IQR, 76-90, respectively; P = .001 and <.001, respectively). Adolescents with TOF without and with a genetic diagnosis had a higher lifetime prevalence of attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) than referents (19% and 39%, respectively, vs 5%; P = .04 and .002, respectively) and worse outcomes on parent-/self-report ratings of anxiety and disruptive behavior compared with referents. Risk factors for anxiety, ADHD, and lower psychosocial functioning for adolescents with TOF without a genetic diagnosis included older age, male sex, and low IQ. Medical variables were not predictive of psychiatric outcomes. CONCLUSION: Adolescents with TOF, particularly those with a genetic diagnosis, show increased rates of psychiatric disorder and dysfunction. Continued mental health screening and surveillance into young adulthood is warranted for adolescents with TOF.
