Introduction: Pediatric ulcerative colitis (CUP), pediatric Crohn's disease (PCD), and pediatric inflammatory bowel disease not classifiable (PIDNCID) have clinical and psychosocial particularities that differentiate them from those of adults and may condition different therapeutic approaches due to possible nutritional, growth and developmental repercussions, representing a challenge for the pediatrician and gastroenterologist. Objective: Develop expert consensus evidence-based recommendations for the timely and safe diagnosis and treatment of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease (PID) in children under 18 years of age for professionals caring for these patients and healthcare payers. Methodology: Through a panel of experts from the Colombian College of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (COLGAHNP) and a multidisciplinary group, 35 questions were asked regarding the clinical picture, diagnosis, and treatment of PID. Through a critical review and analysis of the literature with particular emphasis on the main clinical practice guidelines (CPGs), randomized clinical trials (RCTs), and meta-analyses of the last ten years, from which the experts made 77 recommendations that responded to each of the research questions with their respective practical points. Subsequently, each of the statements was voted on within the developer group, including the statements that achieved > 80%. Results: All statements scored > 80%. PID has greater extension, severity, and evolution towards stenosis, perianal disease, extraintestinal manifestations, and growth retardation compared to adult patients, so its management should be performed by multidisciplinary groups led by pediatric gastroenterologists and prepare them for a transition to adulthood. Porto's criteria allow a practical classification of PID. In CPE, we should use the Paris classification and perform ileocolonoscopy and esophagogastroduodenoscopy, since 50% have upper involvement, using the SES-CD (UCEIS/Mayo in CUP) and taking multiple biopsies. Initial labs should include inflammatory markers and fecal calprotectin and rule out intestinal infections. Treatment, induction, and maintenance of PID should be individualized and decided according to risk stratification. Follow-up should use PCDAI and PUCAI for the last 48 hours. Immunologists and geneticists should evaluate patients with early and infantile PID. Conclusion: A consensus guideline is provided with evidence-based recommendations on timely and safe diagnosis and treatments in patients with ILD.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: This study aimed to correlate the genetic profile of the NUDT15 and TPMT genes with the side effects of the treatment of pediatric patients with acute lymphoid leukemia who were undergoing maintenance therapy at a tertiary care hospital in 2017. Methods: This was an analytical, longitudinal, observational study in which the genotypes of the genes of interest were determined by PCR allelic discrimination with TaqMan® probes in patients receiving chemotherapy during the maintenance phase in the Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Unit in 2017. Sociodemographic and clinical data corresponding to the first six months of their maintenance chemotherapy were collected, and the correlation between the genotypes obtained and the development of side effects during the maintenance phase of chemotherapy in these patients was evaluated. Results: Seventy pediatric patients were included in the study. Genetic analyses were carried out of these for NUDT15 and TPMT (rs1800462 and rs1800460) on 68 patients, while for the rs1142345 polymorphism, typing was achieved in 42 patients. 4/68 patients were heterozygous for NUDT15, and the same number of patients were heterozygous for rs1800462 and rs1142345, while for rs1800460, 6 heterozygous patients were identified. No statistically significant association was identified between the genetic variants and the outcomes of interest. Conclusion: Studies with a larger population size are needed and the evaluation of other genetic variants that may influence the development of side effects during maintenance chemotherapy.


Resumen Objetivo: la finalidad de este estudio fue evaluar las asociaciones entre los perfiles de los genes NUDT15 y TPMT con los efectos adversos del tratamiento de mantenimiento en pacientes pediátricos con Leucemia Linfoblástica Aguda atendidos en un hospital de referencia durante el 2017. Métodos: Este fue un estudio observacional analítico, de corte longitudinal en el que los genotipos de los genes de interés fueron determinados mediante PCR de discriminación alélica con sondas TaqMan® en pacientes que estaban recibiendo quimioterapia de mantenimiento en la Unidad de Oncohematología Pediátrica durante el 2017. Los datos clínicos y sociodemográficos correspondientes a los primeros 6 meses de sus tratamientos de mantenimiento fueron colectados, y se evaluó la correlación entre los genotipos identificados y el desarrollo de efectos secundarios en estos pacientes. Resultados: setenta pacientes fueron incluidos en el estudio, de estos, los análisis genéticos para NUDT15 y TPMT (rs1800462 and rs1800460) fueron realizados en 68 pacientes, en tanto que para el polimorfismo rs1142345 se logró la tipificación en 42 pacientes. 4/68 pacientes fueron heterocigotos para NUDT15 y el mismo número de pacientes fueron heterocigotos para rs1800462 and rs1142345, mientras que para rs1800460, 6 pacientes heterocigotos fueron identificados. No se identificaron asociaciones estadísticamente significantes entre las variants genéticas y los resultados clínicos de interés. Conclusiones: Estos hallazgos resaltan la importancia de realizar estudios de este tipo con un mayor número de sujetos de estudio, así como plantean la necesidad de evaluar otras variantes genéticas que podrían tener algún impacto en el desarrollo de efectos secundarios durante la quimioterapia de mantenimiento.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Candida spp. es un habitante normal de la microbiota humana, que puede originar infecciones superficiales y sistémicas de carácter oportunista. En pacientes diabéticos se incrementa el riesgo de infecciones por esta levadura, lo cual estaría determinado por la portación de Candida spp. Esta portación es variable, así se observa en cavidad oral desde 13,7 al 64 por ciento. Objetivo: establecer los porcentajes de colonización y posibles factores asociados en este grupo de alto riesgo. Método: se realizó un estudio descriptivo en un total de 172 pacientes diabéticos y no diabéticos. Las muestras de enjuague bucal se sembraron en agar Sabouraud y CHROMagar Candida. Los aislamientos se sometieron a pruebas fenotípicas y a reacción en cadena de la polimerasa múltiple para su identificación. Las variables demográficas, los hábitos de higiene oral, el uso de prótesis dental, así como los niveles de hemoglobina glucosilada se evaluaron para determinación de frecuencias y asociación por chi2 y análisis multivariado, mediante el programa SPSS versión 19.0. Resultados: el porcentaje de colonización en el total de la población diabética y no diabética (n= 172) fue de 33,7 por ciento. La distribución por especies fue de Candida albicans (63,8 por ciento), Candida glabrata (10,3 por ciento), Candida tropicalis (6,9 por ciento), Candida krusei (5,2 por ciento), Candida dubliniensis (3,4 por ciento), Candida parapsilosis (3,4 por ciento), Candida lusitaniae (1,7 por ciento), Candida guilliermondii (1,7 por ciento) y Candida spp. (no identificada, 3,4 por ciento). En sujetos no diabéticos el porcentaje de colonización fue de 27,9 por ciento y en diabéticos de 36,9 por ciento. En los sujetos del estudio se encontró que 14,9 por ciento tenía control glúcemico por los niveles de hemoglobina glucosilada, el 57,6 por ciento utilizaba prótesis dentales y el 63,9 por ciento practicaba higiene oral regular. Conclusión: Candida albicans es la especie predominante en ambos grupos, con un porcentaje significativo de las especies no albicans en estos pacientes. El uso de prótesis dental es un factor coadyuvante para la colonización por especies del género Candida(AU)


Introduction: Candida spp. is a normal inhabitant of the human microbiota, which can cause superficial and systemic infections of an opportunistic nature. In diabetic patients the risk of infections by this yeast increases, which would be determined by the carrying of Candida spp. This carrying is variable, as observed in the oral cavity from 13.7 to 64 percent. Objective: to establish the percentages of colonization and possible associated factors in this high-risk group. Method: a descriptive study was carried out in a total of 172 diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Mouthwash samples were seeded on Sabouraud agar and CHROMagar Candida. The isolates were subjected to phenotypic tests and to a multiple polymerase´s chain reaction for identification. Demographic variables, oral hygiene habits, the use of dental prostheses, as well as glycosylated hemoglobin levels were evaluated for frequency and association determination by chi2 and multivariate analysis, using the SPSS program version 19.0. Results: the percentage of colonization in the total of the diabetic and non-diabetic population (n= 172) was 33.7 percent. The distribution by species was Candida albicans (63.8 percent), Candida glabrata (10.3 percent), Candida tropicalis (6.9 percent), Candida krusei (5.2 percent), Candida dubliniensis (3.4 percent), Candida parapsilosis (3.4 percent), Candida lusitaniae (1.7 percent), Candida guilliermondii (1.7 percent), and Candida spp. (unidentified, 3.4 percent). In non-diabetic patients the percentage of colonization was 27.9 percent and in diabetics 36.9 percent. In the study´s patients, it was found that 14.9 percent had glycemic control by glycosylated hemoglobin levels, 57.6 percent used dental prostheses, and 63.9 percent practiced regular oral hygiene. Conclusion: Candida albicans was the predominant specie in both groups, with a significant percentage of the non-albicans species in these patients. The use of dental prostheses was a contributory factor for colonization by species of the genus Candida(AU)

ABSTRACT

Aunque poco frecuente, la interposición de intestino entre el diafragma y el hígado, signo o síndrome de Chilaiditi (en relación a la ausencia o presencia de síntomas gastrointestinales), constituye una condición clínica de importancia dadas las posibilidades de diagnóstico diferencial, tales como: neumoperitoneo, hernia diafragmática y absceso subfrénico. OBJETIVO: Presentar dos preescolares con signo y síndrome de Chilaiditi, así como resaltar la importancia de esta condición clínica. CASOS CLÍNICOS: Caso 1: Preescolar varón evaluado por cuadro respiratorio sin síntomas abdominales. La radiografía de tórax mostró infiltrados retrocardíacos izquierdos y presencia de aire en región subdiafragmática derecha. En radiografías previas se encontraba la misma imagen. Se concluyó que se trataba de un signo de Chilaiditi asociado a un cuadro de neumonía, se trató con antibioterapia y se dio de alta. Caso 2: Preescolar de sexo femenino, evaluada por distensión abdominal y constipación. Radiografía de tórax, solicitada previamente por cuadro respiratorio, con imagen de colon derecho situado entre el hemidiafragma y el hígado. Enema baritado de colon confirmó los hallazgos. Exámenes de laboratorio normales. Se concluyó síndrome de Chilaiditi, se indicó tratamiento médico, con buena evolución. CONCLUSIÓN: Se resalta la importancia de esta condición clínica que pese a ser infrecuente constituye un reto diagnóstico en los servicios de urgencia.


Although infrequent, bowel interposition between diaphragm and liver, Chilaiditi’s sign or syndrome (without or with gastrointestinal symptoms), are a major clinical condition given the possibilities of differential diagnosis, such as pneumoperitoneum, diaphragmatic hernia and subphrenic abscess. Objective: To report the cases of two preschool patients with Chilaiditi´s sign and syndrome, as well as to highlight the importance of this clinical condition. Clinical cases: Case 1: A male preschooler evaluated by respiratory disease without abdominal symptoms. Thorax X-ray shows left retrocardiac infiltrates and air in right subdiaphragmatic region. Previous radiographies shows the same image. He was diagnosed with Chilaiditi sign associated with pneumonia, antibiotics were used before discharge. Case 2: A female preschooler, evaluated by abdominal distention and constipation. A previous thorax X-ray shows bowel interposition between diaphragm and liver. Barium enema confirmed the findings. Blood test were normal. A Chilaiditi's syndrome was diagnosed. She received medical treatment with favorable evolution. Conclusion: These cases highlight the importance of this clinical condition that, despite being infrequent, constitutes a diagnostic challenge in the emergency services.
