Résumé

Progeria is a rare genetic disorder characterized by premature aging, involving the skin, bones, heart, and blood vessels. We report a 4-year-old boy who presented with clinical manifestations of progeria. He had characteristic facies, prominent eyes, scalp and leg veins, senile look, loss of scalp hair, eyebrows and eyelashes, stunted growth, and sclerodermatous changes. The present case is reported due to its rarity.

Résumé

OBJECTIVE: To assess the adverse influence of carpet weaving on lung functions and the nurtritional status of children employed in such factories. DESIGN: Comparison of the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) of the study group with controls of similar socio-economic status and correlate it with anthropometric values. SETTING: Field study. SUBJECTS: One hundred and ten boys, 6-15 years of age engaged in 23 carpet weaving factories of Jaipur city. OUTCOME MEASURES: Linear regression analysis using age, height and weight as independent variables and PEFR as the dependent variable. RESULTS: PEFR of carpet weaving children were significantly lower (p < 0.05) than controls for all except 6-7 years group. The height, weight and chest circumference of these children were also lower (p < 0.05). PEFR did not show significant difference when children were grouped according to their height. CONCLUSIONS: Children working in carpet weaving factories are shorter and lighter compared to normal school going children. As a consequence of the growth retardation, their PEFR values were also lower as compared to normal children.

Résumé

A cross-sectional study was undertaken to determine the health status of children engaged in carpet weaving factories of Jaipur City. Two hundred and ninety school going boys of similar socio-economic status served as controls. A higher prevalence of signs of nutritional deficiencies was observed in carpet weaving children. Analysis of the presenting complaints and the illness suffered in the past six months also revealed a significantly higher morbidity in these children. A statistically significant difference was also observed in anthropometric measurements of the two groups.
