RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: In recent decades, the level of skiing performance in Russia has decreased significantly. This has necessitated problems with the preparation of athletes for competitions and the training process. Objective: To analyze the effects of simulation training tools on the physical condition of ski racers aged 13-14 years. Methods: Quasi-experimental, non-randomized study. 40 cross-country skiers aged 13-14 years belonging to the Korshik Village sports school (Russia) were assigned to a control (n = 20) and experimental (n = 20) group. Classes in the control group were conducted according to the usual training plan and in the experimental group simulation exercises were used. The control tests included pull-ups, squats, two-legged long jump, simulated 100-meter climbing and a 500-meter running test. Results: The control group showed no significant improvements (p > 0.05), while the experimental group reported significant improvements in pull-ups (22.2%; p< 0.05), squat (5.9%; p< 0.05), two-legged long jump (6.8%; p< 0.05), 100-meter climbing simulation (7.8%; p< 0.05) and 500-meter run (4.2 %, p <0.05). Conclusion: If, in the preparatory period, a series of simulation exercises are included in the training program for skiers aged 13-14 years, the level of physical fitness of athletes will improve significantly.


Resumen Introducción: En las últimas décadas, el nivel de rendimiento del esquí en Rusia ha disminuido significativamente. Esto plantea nuevos desafíos en la preparación de los atletas para las competiciones y el proceso de entrenamiento. Objetivo: Analizar los efectos de las herramientas de entrenamiento por simulación sobre la condición física de corredores de esquí de entre 13 y 14 años. Métodos: Estudio cuasiexperimental, no aleatorizado. 40 esquiadores de fondo de entre 13 y 14 años pertenecientes a la escuela deportiva Korshik Village (Rusia) fueron asignados a un grupo control (n=20) y experimental (n=20). Las clases en el grupo de control se llevaron a cabo según el plan de entrenamiento habitual y en el grupo experimental se utilizaron ejercicios de simulación. Las pruebas de control incluyen dominadas, sentadillas, salto de longitud con dos piernas, escalada simulada de 100 metros y una prueba de carrera de 500 metros. Resultados: El grupo control no presentó mejoras significativas (p>0,05), mientras que el grupo experimental reportó mejoras significativas en dominadas (22,2%; p<0,05), sentadilla (5,9%; p<0,05), salto de longitud a dos piernas (6,8%; p<0,05), simulación de escalada de 100 metros (7,8%; p<0,05) y carrera de 500 metros (4,2%; p<0,05). Conclusión: Si en el periodo preparatorio se incluye una serie de ejercicios de simulación en el programa de entrenamiento para esquiadores de 13-14 años, el nivel de condición física de los deportistas mejorará significativamente.

RESUMO

El estridor es un síntoma de obstrucción de la vía aérea superior y puede ser resultado de causas congénitas o adquiridas. El diagnóstico suele ser clínico. Si es necesaria una investigación adicional para el diagnóstico diferencial, la endoscopia es el método de elección en la mayoría de los casos. Los estudios por imágenes son complementarios a la endoscopia. Permiten evaluar la patología laríngea y traqueobronquial, las compresiones extrínsecas de la vía aérea por tumores o malformaciones vasculares y definir la localización, extensión y características de una lesión. Son útiles en casos de duda diagnóstica y cuando la endoscopia no está disponible. Es fundamental comprender la anatomía y fisiopatología del tracto respiratorio, y ser conscientes de las indicaciones y limitaciones de los exámenes complementarios para el diagnóstico adecuado. Se describen las diferentes modalidades de imágenes disponibles para evaluar el estridor en pediatría y se discuten sus ventajas.


Stridor is a symptom of upper airway obstruction and may result from congenital or acquired causes. The diagnosis is usually clinical. If further investigation is necessary for differential diagnosis, endoscopy is the method of choice in most cases. Imaging studies are complementary to endoscopy. They allow evaluation of laryngeal and tracheobronchial pathology and extrinsic airway compressions due to tumors or vascular malformations and define a lesion's location, extent, and characteristics. They are helpful in cases of diagnostic doubt and when endoscopy is unavailable. It is essential to understand the anatomy and pathophysiology of the respiratory tract and to be aware of the indications and limitations of complementary examinations for proper diagnosis. The different imaging modalities available to evaluate stridor in pediatrics are described, and their advantages are discussed.

RESUMO

Se estima que entre el 25 % y el 40 % de los niños sanos presentan algún síntoma de dificultad alimentaria (DA) durante su crecimiento y desarrollo, y muchas veces no son adecuadamente diagnosticadas. El propósito de este trabajo consistió en realizar una revisión narrativa que reuniera la información disponible sobre las dificultades alimentarias. Se desarrollaron algoritmos de evaluación y abordaje a partir de la evidencia en la literatura. La mayoría de los problemas de alimentación en los niños pequeños (selectividad alimentaria, falta de apetito, miedo a la alimentación) a menudo coexisten y es necesario evaluar el riesgo clínico para planificar una intervención individualizada. Contar con definiciones estandarizadas y terminología común para abordar estas dificultades de manera adecuada y multidisciplinaria es uno de los caminos para optimizar su tratamiento. Involucrar a los diferentes profesionales de la salud y a los padres es fundamental para abordar las dificultades alimentarias.


It has been estimated that between 25% and 40% of healthy children show symptoms of feeding difficulties (FDs) during their growth and development; many times, these are not adequately diagnosed. The objective of this study was to conduct a narrative review that collected the available information on fee ding difficulties. Assessment and management algorithms were developed based on the bibliographic evidence. Most feeding problems in young children (feeding selectivity, loss of appetite, fear of feeding) are often con current, and a clinical risk assessment is necessary to plan an individualized intervention. Having standardized definitions and common terms to address these difficulties in an appropriate and multidisciplinary manner is one of the ways to optimize their treatment. The involvement of different health care providers and parents is critical to address feeding difficulties.

RESUMO

Introducción. La calidad de la alimentación implica tanto la cantidad y calidad de los alimentos que se ofrecen como la forma en que se ofrecen, el entorno y las respuestas de quien los ofrece. El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar patrones de comportamiento relacionados a la alimentación perceptiva en niños entre 6 y 23 meses de áreas urbanas de la Argentina en 2018-19. Población y métodos. Análisis secundario de datos de la 2da Encuesta Nacional de Nutrición y Salud 2018-19, de una muestra probabilística polietápica de localidades urbanas de 5000 habitantes y más de Argentina. Se realizó análisis descriptivo y análisis de componentes principales para identificar los patrones de alimentación perceptiva en 4379 niños y niñas de 6 a 23 meses. Resultados. Se identificaron cinco patrones de alimentación perceptiva, las dos primeras dimensiones explicaron el 71,1 % de la inercia (p = 0,013). El patrón donde prevalecía la posibilidad de experimentación, la autonomía, la interacción y la ausencia de pantallas, premios y distracciones se asoció a niños/as mayores de 12 meses, de las regiones del centro y sur (Cuyo, Pampeana, Gran Buenos Aires y Patagonia), mientras que el patrón relacionado con menor autonomía, experimentación y autorregulación correspondió a las regiones Noroeste y Noreste, y a niños/as entre 6 y 11 meses. Conclusión. Se evidencian prácticas de alimentación perceptiva que se corresponden con patrones diferenciados entre sí, asociados a diferentes etapas y a la región donde viven los niños/as.


Introduction. Dietary quality involves both the quantity and quality of food offered, the way and the setting in which it is offered, and the responses of the person offering it. The objective of this study was to identify behavioral patterns related to responsive feeding in children aged 6 to 23 months in urban areas from Argentina in 2018­2019. Population and methods. Secondary analysis based on data from the second National Survey on Nutrition and Health of 2018­2019 conducted in a multistage probability sample from urban areas of 5000 inhabitants or more in Argentina. A descriptive analysis and a principal component analysis were performed to identify responsive feeding patterns in 4379 children aged 6 to 23 months. Results. Five responsive feeding patterns were identified; the first 2 dimensions explained 71.1% of inertia (p = 0.013). The pattern with a prevailing possibility of experimentation, autonomy, interaction, and the absence of screens, rewards and distractions was associated with children older than 12 months from the central and south regions (Cuyo, Pampa, Greater Buenos Aires, and Patagonia), whereas the pattern related to a lower autonomy, experimentation, and self-regulation corresponded to children aged 6 to 11 months from the Northwest and Northeast regions. Conclusion. There is evidence of responsive feeding practices that correspond to distinguishable patterns, associated with different stages of life and with the region where the children live

RESUMO

Introducción. El trastorno del espectro autista (TEA) se caracteriza por dificultades de comunicación social y comportamientos repetitivos y estereotipados. Además de la categoría diagnóstica, las actividades que los niños, niñas y adolescentes (NNyA) pueden realizar y la participación social son los aspectos principales por considerar desde el marco de la Clasificación Internacional del Funcionamiento, la Discapacidad y la Salud (CIF), propuesta por la Organización Mundial de la Salud, para describir los estados de salud. En una investigación previa, elaboramos la primera versión de una herramienta pediátrica basada en la CIF llamada TEA-CIFunciona para evaluación funcional de NNyA con diagnóstico de TEA, que permitió captar características funcionales adaptadas a nuestro contexto cultural. Se propuso como objetivo posterior aplicar TEA-CIFunciona en formato multicéntrico para evaluar NNyA de diferentes regiones, revisar y actualizar la herramienta, e identificar barreras y facilitadores. Población y métodos. Se administró TEA-CIFunciona versión 1.0 a NNyA con diagnóstico confirmado de TEA (según criterios del DSM-5), menores de 16 años, en seguimiento en cinco centros de atención pediátrica del país. Resultados. Se obtuvo la versión 2.0 de TEA-CIFunciona con 34 categorías (10 funciones corporales, 15 actividades y participación, y 9 factores ambientales). Se elaboró el perfil funcional de la muestra completa (n = 308). Conclusiones. La versión actualizada de TEA-CIFunciona contribuye a estandarizar y a sistematizar la obtención de información necesaria para adecuar el seguimiento de los NNyA con TEA a nivel nacional. Además, permite identificar barreras por superar y facilitadores para generalizar


Introduction. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by difficulties in social communication and repetitive and stereotyped behaviors. In addition to the diagnostic category, the activities performed by children and adolescents and their social involvement are the main aspects to be considered according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) proposed by the World Health Organization to describe health status. In a previous study, we developed the first version of a pediatric tool based on the ICF called ICF-ASD for the functional assessment of children and adolescents with ASD to capture functional characteristics adapted to our cultural setting. Our subsequent objective was to apply the ICF-ASD in a multicenter format to assess children and adolescents from different regions, review, and update it, and identify barriers and facilitators. Population and methods. The ICF-ASD version 1.0 was administered to children and adolescents younger than 16 years with a confirmed diagnosis of ASD (as per DSM-5 criteria), who were receiving follow-up at 5 children's health centers across Argentina. Results. Version 2.0 of the ICF-ASD was obtained, which included 34 categories (10 under body function, 15 under activities and participation, and 9 under environmental factors). A functional profile was developed for the whole sample (n = 308). Conclusions. The updated version of the ICF-ASD helps to standardize and systematize the collection of necessary data for an adequate follow-up of children and adolescents with ASD at a national level. It also allows to identify barriers to overcome and facilitators to be generalized

RESUMO

This study investigated whether variations in climate and ocean drivers on global, regional, and local scales affected macrozooplankton communities in a coastal protected area in Tamandaré Bay (northeastern Brazil). For this purpose, bimonthly field campaigns were carried out from June 2013 to August 2019. A significant tipping point (point of change, p < 0.001), with an abrupt increase in SST, was detected in the TSA (Tropical South Atlantic) index. This indicates the existence of a climate regime shift in the Tropical South Atlantic during the 2015/16 El Niño (EN) event. Extreme rainfall events were observed in Tamandaré Bay after this EN event, in 2017, 2018, and in 2019 (and more recently, in 2022). This extreme rainfall led to low-salinity events, increased variability in salinity, and significantly lower abundances in the period after the strong EN event, for socioeconomically relevant penaeid shrimp postlarvae and several other zooplankton groups (e.g., copepods, appendicularians, anomuran hermit crab larvae, and chaetognaths). We found a significant relationship between SSTs in the TSA region and penaeid shrimp recruitment in the study area, located leewards of the TSA index area. The decline in shrimp postlarvae and other macrozooplankton may be due to a combination of factors, such as climate and ocean shifts (atmospheric easterly waves disturbances, winds, precipitation, salinity) and possibly increasing marine pollution (related to extreme rainfall events, that convey macro- and microplastics, and pollutants from the continent). Cnidarian medusae and fish eggs were among the few "winners" of this ecosystem regime shift. Changes in climate, ocean, macrozooplankton, and shrimp postlarvae abundance evidence a relevant climate, ocean and ecosystem regime shift in this region with a tipping point during 2015/16 "Godzilla" El Niño. Possible future consequences in the context of persistent warming in the TSA region and the currently ongoing record strength 2023/24 EN event are discussed.

RESUMO

Over recent decades, anthropogenic forest fires have significantly altered vegetation dynamics in the Amazon region. While human activities primarily initiate these fires, their escalation is intricately linked to climatic conditions, particularly droughts induced by the warm El Niño phase. This study investigates the impact of meteorological and hydrological drought on forest fires in the Amazon, focusing on the role of groundwater and El Niño events. Utilizing comprehensive drought indicators at various soil depths and standardized precipitation indexes, the research spans from 2004 to 2016, revealing a consistent decrease in humidity conditions across surface soil moisture, root zone soil moisture, and groundwater storage levels. With its slower response to precipitation changes, groundwater emerges as a crucial factor influencing hydrological drought patterns in the Amazon. The spatial distribution of drought conditions is explored, highlighting areas with lower humidity concentrations in the northeast and a correlation between forest fires and positive rates of change in burned area fraction during El Niño events. Notably, the study underscores the substantial increase in burned area during the 2015-2016, characterized by a very strong El Niño. This nuanced understanding of groundwater dynamics and its interplay with El Niño events provides critical insights for developing a tailored fire risk index in the ecologically significant and vulnerable Amazon basin, subsidizing strategies for mitigating fire risk and enhancing preparedness.

RESUMO

The Argentinean Pampean region is essential for global food security, known for its extensive production of soybeans, corn, and wheat. The November to January (NDJ) trimester is critical for rainfed summer crops, as precipitation during this period directly affects soil moisture and crop yields. The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), particularly its Oceanic Niño Index (ONI), plays a crucial role in influencing precipitation patterns in this region. This study investigates the spatial correlation between the ONI and NDJ precipitation from 1990 to 2021 sing a 20-year sliding window approach. We conducted Pearson correlation and cluster analyses to identify regions with consistent ONI-precipitation relationships. Our findings reveal notable temporal variability, with a general decrease in correlation strength since the window 1995-2014. This decline is likely driven by changes in ENSO dynamics and the influence of other climate variability modes, highlighting the need to consider factors modulating the ONI-precipitation relationship. Notably, the addition of the strong 2015 El Niño, which exhibited inconsistent precipitation behaviour compared to previous strong El Niño events such as 1997, contributed to this weakening. While the 1997 El Niño brought widespread positive rainfall anomalies, the 2015 event was marked by weaker and even negative precipitation anomalies in part of the region. This difference mirrors similar patterns reported in other parts of South America, such as Ecuador and Coastal Peru, and may be linked to a poleward shift in the jet streams during the 2015/2016 El Niño. The results underscore the complexity of ENSO's impact on regional climate and highlight the need for adaptive agricultural planning. By enhancing the understanding of ONI-precipitation dynamics, this study aims to improve long-term climate predictions and support sustainable agricultural practices in the Pampean region.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction. Video games have a strong influence on children and adolescents. Video game addiction has negative effects on children's health. Objective. To determine the relationship between video game addiction and bladder/bowel dysfunction in children. Materials and methods. Three hundred sixty-three children and their mothers who met the inclusion criteria constituted the sample of this correlational study. The data were collected using a descriptive information form, the Video Game Addiction Scale for Children, and the Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire. Results. We found that 72.5% of the children were nine years old and 27.5% were ten years old; 50.4% were males and 49.6% were female. While 4.7% of the children who participated in the study were underweight, 19.6% were overweight, and 17.9% were obese. The mean Video Game Addiction Scale for Children score was 50.77 ± 16.17, whereas the mean Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire score was 29.98 ± 8.90. The ratio of children with a mean Video Game Addiction Scale for Children scores equal to or greater than 90 was 0.8% (n = 3). We found that 3.6% (n = 13) of the children had urinary/fecal incontinence while playing video games. There was a weak positive relationship between the dimensions of the Video Game Addiction Scale for Children scores, the Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire scores, and children's bladder and bowel function (r = 0.220; p < 0.05). Conclusions. There is a correlation between children's video game addiction level and their bladder and bowel dysfunction grade. Higher video game addiction levels correspond to higher bladder and bowel dysfunction.


Resumen Introducción. Los videojuegos tienen una fuerte influencia en los niños y adolescentes. La adicción a ellos tiene efectos perjudiciales para la salud de los niños. Objetivo. Determinar la relación entre la adicción a los videojuegos y la disfunción vesical o intestinal en niños. Materiales y métodos. Los 373 niños y sus madres que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión constituyeron la muestra de este estudio descriptivo y correlacional. Los datos se recopilaron mediante un formulario de información descriptiva, la Video Game Addiction Scale for Children y el Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire. Resultados. El 72,5 % de los niños tenía nueve años y, el 27,5 %, diez; el 50,4 % eran hombres y el 49,6 %, mujeres. El 4,7 % de los estudiantes que participaron en el estudio tenían bajo peso, el 19,6 % presentaba sobrepeso y el 17,9 % tenía obesidad. Se constató que las puntuaciones medias de las escalas fueron 50,77 ± 16,17 para la Video Game Addiction Scale for Children y 29,98 ± 8,90 para el Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire. La proporción de niños con una puntuación de 90 o superior en la dicha escala fue del 0,8 % (n = 3). Se encontró que el 3,6 % (n = 13) de los niños tenía incontinencia urinario-fecal mientras jugaba videojuegos. Se reveló que había una correlación positiva débil entre las dimensiones de las dos escalas evaluadas, y la función de la vejiga y el intestino (p < 0,05). Conclusiones. El grado de adicción a los videojuegos de los niños está correlacionado con su grado de disfunción vesical o intestinal: entre mayor sea la adicción, mayor es la disfunción.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Septic shock is a potentially life-threatening condition. The aim of this study was to identify clinical and epidemiological factors associated with mortality in pediatric patients admitted to a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) with septic shock. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective comparative case series study was conducted with children aged 1 month to 14 years with septic shock from 2018 to 2020 in a PICU in Lima, Peru. Patients were divided into deceased and survivor groups based on their condition at discharge from the PICU. The influence of each variable on mortality was assessed using a logistic regression model. RESULTS: A total of 174 patients were included in the study, with 51 (29.3%) fatalities. Deceased patients, compared to survivors, were older, had a higher incidence of oncological disease (31.4% vs. 14.6%; p = 0.011), more frequently presented with hemoglobin ≤ 9 g/dL (44% vs. 28%; p = 0.043), lactate > 2 mmol/L (70% vs. 44%; p = 0.002), platelets ≤ 150 (×103)/µL (77% vs. 42%; p < 0.001), and pH ≤ 7.1 (31% vs. 6%; p < 0.001). In the logistic regression model, factors related to mortality were having a pH ≤ 7.1 (odds ratio [OR] = 8.95; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.52-31.75) and platelets ≤ 150 (×103)/µL (OR = 3.89; 95% CI: 1.40-10.84). CONCLUSIONS: Factors associated with mortality in pediatric patients with septic shock were a pH ≤ 7.1 and platelets ≤ 150 (×103)/µL in the assessments conducted upon admission to the PICU.


INTRODUCCIÓN: El shock séptico es una condición potencialmente mortal. El objetivo del estudio fue identificar factores clínicos y epidemiológicos relacionados con la mortalidad en pacientes que ingresaron por shock séptico a una Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Pediátricos (UCIP). MÉTODOS: Estudio retrospectivo tipo serie de casos comparativos con niños de 1 mes a 14 años hospitalizados por shock séptico del 2018 al 2020 en una UCIP de Lima en Perú. Los pacientes fueron divididos en fallecidos y vivos según su condición al alta de la Unidad. La influencia de cada variable sobre la mortalidad fue evaluada mediante un modelo de regresión logística. RESULTADOS: Ingresaron 174 pacientes al estudio, fallecieron 51 (29.3%). Los fallecidos en comparación con los vivos fueron de mayor edad, tuvieron más casos oncológicos (31.4% vs. 14.6%; p = 0.011), presentaron con mayor frecuencia hemoglobina ≤ 9 g/dL (44% vs. 28%; p = 0.043), lactato > 2 mmol/L (70% vs. 44%; p = 0.002), plaquetas ≤ 150 (×103)/µL (77% vs. 42%; p < 0.001) y pH ≤ 7,1 (31% vs. 6%; p < 0.001). En la regresión logística ajustada los factores que se relacionaron con la mortalidad fueron tener un pH ≤ 7,1 (OR = 8.95; IC 95%: 2.52 a 31.75) y plaquetas ≤ 150 (×103)/µL (OR = 3.89; IC 95%: 1.40 a 10.84). CONCLUSIONES: Los factores relacionados con la mortalidad en pacientes hospitalizados por shock séptico fueron tener un pH ≤ 7.1 y plaquetas ≤ 150 (×103)/µL en los controles realizados al ingreso de la UCIP.

RESUMO

El síndrome de Wells o celulitis eosinofílica es una enfermedad inflamatoria de origen desconocido, de aparición infrecuente en la edad pediátrica. Suele manifestarse clínicamente como placas eritematoedematosas, nódulos, pápulas, ampollas, entre otros. Se presenta una paciente en edad pediátrica con nódulos subcutáneos asintomáticos generalizados asociados a eosinofilia grave. El estudio histopatológico de las lesiones fue compatible con celulitis de Wells. Se realizó una evaluación interdisciplinaria en busca de la causa y trastornos eosinofílicos asociados, sin resultados positivos. Se indicó tratamiento sistémico con corticoides y presentó buena respuesta, pero, ante la recidiva de las lesiones tras su suspensión, se indicó dapsona como tratamiento de segunda línea, con mejoría posterior de las lesiones y de la eosinofilia. El objetivo del reporte es presentar una paciente con una manifestación atípica de síndrome de Wells y su desafío terapéutico.


Wells' syndrome, or eosinophilic cellulitis, is an inflammatory disease of unknown origin, uncommon in the pediatric age. It usually appears clinically as erythematous and edematous plaques, nodules, papules, blisters, among other symptoms. Here we describe the case of a female pediatric patient with generalized, asymptomatic subcutaneous nodules associated with severe eosinophilia. The histopathological examination of the lesions was compatible with Wells' syndrome. An interdisciplinary evaluation was performed to establish the cause and look for associated eosinophilic disorders; the results were negative. Systemic corticosteroids were indicated and the patient had a good response; however, in view of the recurrence of the lesions after treatment discontinuation, dapsone was indicated as a second-line treatment, with subsequent improvement of the lesions and eosinophilia. The aim of this report was to describe the case of a female patient with an atypical manifestation of Wells' syndrome and the resulting therapeutic challenge.

RESUMO

Entre las causas de dolor torácico, la costilla deslizante presenta baja prevalencia, antecedentes traumáticos y manejo controvertido. Este síndrome merece ser incluido en el diagnóstico diferencial de causas de dolor torácico en niños. Al no asociarse a traumatismos previos y la deformidad de cartílagos, nos induce a pensar en una alteración en el desarrollo costal, al margen de la etiología traumática típica en adultos. Se presenta una serie de pacientes pediátricos intervenidos por costilla deslizante en un centro de referencia entre 2001 y 2022. Se incluyeron nueve pacientes, con un rango de edades de 11 a 16 años. Solo dos casos describen traumatismo previo. Todos presentan un inicio súbito de dolor toracoabdominal intenso. Los pacientes fueron intervenidos mediante resección abierta de cartílagos costales afectos, con resolución del dolor.


Among the causes of chest pain, slipping rib has a low prevalence, usually with a history of trauma, and its management is controversial. Slipping rib syndrome should be included in the differential diagnosis of causes of chest pain in children. When not associated with previous trauma and cartilage deformity, it is necessary to consider an alteration in rib development, regardless of the typical traumatic etiology in adults. Here we describe a series of pediatric patients with slipping rib seen at a referral hospital between 2001 and 2022. Nine patients aged 11 to 16 years were included. Only 2 had a history of trauma. All patients described a sudden onset of severe thoracic abdominal pain. The patients underwent open resection of the affected costal cartilages, with resolution of pain.

RESUMO

El estado nutricional de los niños es un tema prioritario para numerosas instituciones nacionales e internacionales. A pesar de los esfuerzos por mejorar su condición, aún persisten casos de malnutrición, tanto por exceso como por déficit de macro y micronutrientes. Las enfermedades asociadas a esta condición transmisibles o no, tienen un impacto directo en la salud física y psicológica de los infantes. Este artículo presenta la relación entre una nutrición adecuada y el desarrollo cognitivo óptimo durante las primeras etapas de la vida. Para ello, se consultó información de diversas fuentes como SciELO, PubMed, Scopus, Hinari, repositorios universitarios, e informes de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Alimentación y la Agricultura, del Programa Mundial de Alimentos y de la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Estas fuentes afirman que la malnutrición y el hambre oculta en los niños son causas de alteraciones en los procesos cognitivos, ya que la dieta diaria provee las sustancias necesarias para los procesos metabólicos cerebrales


The nutritional status of children is a priority issue for many national and international institutions. Despite efforts to improve their condition, there are still cases of malnutrition, due to excess and deficit of macro and micronutrients. Diseases associated with this condition, whether communicable or not, have a direct impact on the physical and psychological health of infants. This article presents the relationship between appropriate nutrition and optimal cognitive development during the early life stages . For this purpose, information was consulted from various sources such as SciELO, PubMed, Scopus, Hinari, university repositories, and reports from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the World Food Program and the World Health Organization. These sources state that malnutrition and hidden hunger in children is the cause of alterations in cognitive processes, since the daily diet provides the substances necessary for brain metabolic processes

RESUMO

Objective. To analyze the duties of wet nurses at the Hospital Real in Santiago de Compostela (Spain). The secondary objectives were to compare the mortality rate and distribution by parish of the foundlings under the care of the Royal House between 1803 and 1808; and to determine the origin of the Galician foundlings who participated in the Royal Philanthropic Expedition of the Smallpox Vaccine in 1803. Methods. Historiographic study that analyzed sorted and not sorted in series indirect positional and quantitative historical sources.Results. The duties of wet nurses during the studied period were to provide basic care and cultural instruction. The mortality rate of foundlings fluctuated during that period and their distribution by parish (functional unit of healthcare services at that time) was similar in those years, with a predominance in the provinces of A Coruña and Pontevedra. A total of 5 Galician foundlings from the House analyzed were part of the smallpox vaccine expedition, their names were Juan Antonio, Jacinto, Gerónimo María, Francisco Florencio and Juan Francisco. Conclusion. During the observed period the wet nurses of the Hospital Real of Santiago de Compostela were in charge of pediatric care. Wet nurses were vital in the role of keeping the foundlings alive and can be considered as one of the forerunners of the pediatric nurse profession at that time.

RESUMO

The edible chiton Chiton articulatus is a commercially important mollusk found in the rocky intertidal zones of the Mexican tropical Pacific. Despite the intense harvesting in Acapulco Bay, Mexico, knowledge of its growth patterns is limited, hindering the development of effective management strategies. This study investigated the growth dynamics of C. articulatus using a multi-model inference approach based on size structure data collected in four sampling periods covering four decades. Results revealed continuous recruitment throughout the year, contributing to population resilience. The species exhibited growth plasticity, highlighting its adaptive potential. We found complex temporal patterns influenced mainly by climatic events. The El Niño event sowed higher growth rates and lower asymptotic length, while La Niña events showed the opposite pattern. This research provides insights into the growth dynamics of C. articulatus, highlighting the need for holistic management strategies for this commercially important species in the face of environmental change.
