Evaluation of Antibody Response to Polysaccharide Vaccine and Switched Memory B Cells in Pediatric Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Background/Aims: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic disease of the gastrointestinal tract, whose etiologies are still unknown. This study was performed to evaluate the humoral immune response in terms of B cell functions in selected IBD patients. Methods: Eighteen pediatric patients with IBD, including 12 cases of ulcerative colitis (UC) and six with Crohn disease (CD), were enrolled...
متن کاملPediatric demyelinating diseases: multiple sclerosis or not?
tral nervous system demyelination have been increasingly recognized in children. Moreover, a much higher proportion of children (as compared to adults) suffer from a monophasic (and not chronic) demyelinating event such as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis or isolated optic neuritis, and transverse myelitis, often post-infectious. Differentiation between such acute monophasic illnesses and a...
متن کاملPediatric Multiple Sclerosis—A Challenging Demyelinating Disease: Case Report and Brief Review of the Literature
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, demyelinating, neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) of unknown etiology. The peak onset is between age 20 and 40 years and usually affects more women than men. Although much knowledge has been achieved on the diagnosis and treatment of adult patients with MS, it remains a matter of debate and controversy in childhood. We pres...
متن کاملFulminant demyelinating encephalomyelitis: Insights from antibody studies and neuropathology.
OBJECTIVES Antibodies to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) are detectable in inflammatory demyelinating CNS diseases, and MOG antibody-associated diseases seem to have a better prognosis despite occasionally severe presentations. METHODS We report the case of a 71-year-old patient with acute visual and gait disturbance that dramatically worsened to bilateral amaurosis, tetraplegia, an...
متن کاملDifferential diagnosis and evaluation in pediatric inflammatory demyelinating disorders.
Major advances have been made in the clinical and radiologic characterization of children presenting with the different forms of an acquired inflammatory demyelinating syndrome (ADS) such as acute disseminating encephalomyelitis, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders, and clinically isolated syndromes. Nevertheless, a proportion of cases that present with similar symptoms are due to a broad s...
