This clinical case of coccidioidomycosis shows the importance of suspecting septic shock because of a #rare but possible disseminated manifestation of this infection

➡️ It's especially important in endemic areas like northern #Mexico #Pediatrics #InfectiousDiseases @infectoHU

🔬 Can pediatric surgery residents be safely trained in new surgical techniques like the LPEC method for inguinal hernia repair?

@T_HIMFG @FacMedicinaUNAM @cinvestav shows that teaching these new techniques is feasible, safe, and highly reproducible by them with success and minimal complications

Do you know the pityriasis lichenoides chronica? And how does it behave in #children?

👶This #Mexican case series of this #rare dermatosis in #pediatrics found that the disease often follows a chronic course, with recurrences in 67.5% of cases and a low rate of resolution #Dermatology

Long-term follow-up and more standardized treatment protocols are needed, according to the results @HGM_OD @Tu_IMSS

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) are low-cost, #accessible, and useful predictive biomarkers in #neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis

But could they be useful in preterm #newborns too?

@Tu_IMSS @UGLeon @paque_carlos explore the possibility in this study

👶 Could antibiotic catheter lock therapy help prevent bloodstream infections in newborns with central venous catheters? #challenge #pediatrics

Although the results were not statistically significant compared to the control group, a study by @INP_Pediatria found that a vancomycin catheter lock showed:

✔️25% reduction in bloodstream infections
✔️50% reduction in infection density per 1,000 catheter-days

#Vitiligo is more than a skin condition
👇
Around 1 in 3 children with vitiligo showed thyroid abnormalities in this #Mexican cohort @INP_Pediatria @CHMH_Ags @teresadefresa

➡️ These findings support early screening for thyroid dysfunction and thyroid autoantibodies in childhood, as their prevalence may even increase with age
