PURPOSE In Cuba, viral monitoring in the post-transplant period was not routinely performed. The aim of this research is to identify the most frequent viruses that affect transplanted Cuban children, by implementing a viral follow-up during the post-transplant period. METHODS The study population included all Cuban pediatric patients who underwent solid organ transplantation (SOT) between Nov...
BACKGROUND Prevention strategies for cytomegalovirus (CMV) in pediatric transplant recipients are sparsely reported. A hybrid strategy that combines prophylaxis with preemptive therapy using serial CMV viral load monitoring is an emerging option. We report our clinical outcomes with a hybrid strategy in pediatric heart transplant recipients. METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed ...
While the global coronavirus crisis worsens, a surprising feature of disease appears that children might be immune from worst form it. Studies suggest COVID- 19 is more likely to infect older adult men, particularly those with comorbidities. There only limited data detailing effects COVID-19 on pediatric population. Patients underlying cardiovascular comorbidities are at increased risk morbidit...
General pediatric care providers are exposed to clinical hepatology beginning with the care of newborns with indirect and direct hyperbilirubinemia. Indirect hyperbilirubinemia commonly involves “physiological” jaundice, breast-feeding and breast-milk jaundice, and jaundice secondary to hemolytic disease and resolves without potential lifelong or life-threatening disease. However, when practiti...
OBJECTIVES To estimate the resource utilization in hospitalizations for common pediatric conditions or procedures involving patients with chronic disease vs those with no chronic disease and to develop an economic model of hospital per-patient profit (or loss) when insurance contracts fail to account for the presence of chronic disease. SETTING AND DESIGN A retrospective analysis of selected ...
We conducted a cross-sectional study of beta-herpesviruses in febrile pediatric oncology patients (n = 30), with a reference group of febrile pediatric solid-organ transplant recipients (n = 9). One (3.3%) of 30 cancer patients and 3 (33%) of 9 organ recipients were PCR positive for cytomegalovirus. Four (13%) of 30 cancer patients and 3 (33%) of 9 transplant recipients had human herpesvirus 6B...
Five patients in a pediatric population were identified with idiopathic follicular bronchitis (IFB) by open lung biopsy and their case records were reviewed. All were tachypneic and had a chronic cough by 6 weeks of age. The physical examination was characterized by diffuse fine crackles in four patients and by coarse rhonchi in one. The chest radiographs in all demonstrated a diffuse interstit...
Many diseases may present as acute hepatic failure in the pediatric age group, including viral hepatitis A and B, adverse drug reactions, both toxic and "hepatitic," and inherited metabolic disorders such as tyrosinemia, alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency, and Wilson's disease. Management is primarily supportive, with care taken to anticipate the known complications of hepatic failure. Few "curativ...
Infectious complications, particularly viral infections, remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT). Only a handful of studies in children have analyzed the risks for and impact of viremia on alloHCT-related outcomes. We conducted a retrospective study of 140 pediatric patients undergoing alloHCT to investigate the inciden...
BACKGROUND Treatment of low-risk febrile episodes with oral administered antibiotics at home is a new approach in pediatric oncology and protective isolation is loosened in more centers. The impact of viral respiratory infections in febrile diseases in this population is still unclear in terms of occurrence and morbidity. PROCEDURE A prospective follow-up study of all febrile episodes during ...
