RESUMO

Objective: To review the effects of the ketogenic diet on epilepsy in children and adolescents.Data Sources: A literature search was conducted in PubMed with no publication date or language restrictions based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses guidelines. Keywords used included children, adolescent, ketogenic diet, epilepsy, and seizure.Study Selection: After excluding articles that did not meet the inclusion criteria, such as missing variables of study, adult population, and nonrandomized clinical trials, a total of 12 studies were included in the final review.Data Extraction: Data on study design, duration, sample size, population, and type of intervention were collected using a standard template.Results: The ketogenic diet and its modified versions were noted to have beneficial effects in reduction of seizure frequency and severity, with manageable adverse effects such as gastrointestinal disturbances, dehydration, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, infection, and metabolic acidosis.Conclusions: Depending on patient compliance and comorbidities, all variations of the ketogenic diet were found to be helpful for seizure treatment, whether as an additive or an alternative treatment option, for children and adolescents with epilepsy.Prim Care Companion CNS Disord 2024;26(3):23r03661.

RESUMO

AIMS: To study the effects of a bridging dose of U-100 glargine (U-100G) with the first dose of degludec in type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients transitioning from glargine to degludec, by comparing the glucose metrics 48 h before and after the transition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with T1D on a stable U-100G regimen and with glycated haemoglobin concentration <75 mmol/mol were randomized (double-blind) to one dose of placebo or U-100G with first dose of degludec, administered at 9:00 pm. Patients on once-daily U-100G at baseline received 50% of total U-100G dose (bridging dose), while patients on twice-daily U-100G received 50% of the evening U-100G dose. Participants wore a continuous glucose monitor during the study. RESULTS: Forty participants were randomized, of whom 37 completed the study. The cohort was 65% male, the mean age was 47 years, duration of T1D 22 years, BMI 26 kg/m2, HbA1c 51 mmol/mol and total daily insulin dose 0.7 units/kg body weight. The bridging group included 19 participants (once-daily U-100G: n = 12; twice-daily U-100G: n = 7) and the placebo group included 18 participants (once-daily U-100G: n = 12; twice-daily U-100G: n = 6). Change in time in range (TIR) was not significantly different between the two treatment groups. In secondary analyses, among twice-daily U-100G users, TIR (3.9-10 mmol/L) increased 8% in the bridging group in the 48 h after first dose of degludec compared to the preceding 48 h, while participants in the placebo group had a 9.5% decrease (p = 0.027). CONCLUSIONS: A subgroup of well-controlled twice-daily U-100G users transitioning to degludec benefited from a 50% bridging dose of evening U-100G with the first dose of degludec in a small pilot study.

RESUMO

Background: asthma, a chronic respiratory disease caused by inflammation and narrowing of the small airways in the lungs, is the most common chronic childhood disease. Prevalence of childhood asthma in the United States is 5.8%. In boys, prevalence is 5.7% and it is 6% in girls. Asthma is associated with other comorbidities such as major depressive disorder and anxiety disorder. This study explores the association between asthma and depression. Methods: we conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study using NHANES data from 2013 to 2018. Asthma and childhood onset asthma were assessed using questionnaires MCQ010 and MCQ025, respectively. Sociodemographic variables were summarized, and univariate analysis was performed to determine the association between asthma and major depressive disorder and its individual symptoms. Results: there were 402,167 participants from 2013−2018 in our study: no asthma in 84.70%; asthma in 15.30%. Childhood onset asthma (COA) included 10.51% and adult-onset asthma (AOA) included 4.79%. Median age of COA is 5 years and AOA is 41 years. Among the asthma groups, most AOA were females (67.77%, p < 0.0001), most COA were males (52.16%, p < 0.0001), and ethnicity was predominantly White in AOA (42.39%, p < 0001) and in COA (35.24%, p < 0.0001). AOA mostly had annual household income from $0−24,999 (35.91%, p < 0.0001), while COA mostly had annual household income from $25,000−64,999 (36.66%, p < 0.0001). There was a significantly higher prevalence of MDD in COA (38.90%) and AOA (47.30%) compared to NOA (31.91%). Frequency of symptoms related to MDD were found to have a significantly higher prevalence and severity in the asthma groups compared to no asthma, and slightly greater and more severe in AOA than in COA. Symptoms include having little interest in doing things (COA 18.38% vs. AOA 22.50% vs. NOA 15.44%), feeling down, depressed, or hopeless (COA 20.05% vs. AOA 22.77% vs. NOA 15.85%), having trouble sleeping or sleeping too much (COA 27.38% vs. AOA 23.15% vs. NOA 22.24%), feeling tired or having little energy (COA 39.17% vs. AOA 34.24% vs. NOA 33.97%), having poor appetite or overeating (COA 19.88% vs. AOA 20.02% vs. NOA 15.11%), feeling bad about yourself (COA 13.90% vs. AOA 13.79% vs. NOA 10.78%), having trouble concentrating on things (COA 12.34% vs. AOA 14.41% vs. NOA 10.06%), moving or speaking slowly or too fast (COA 8.59% vs. AOA 9.72% vs. NOA 6.09%), thinking you would be better off dead (COA 3.12% vs. AOA 4.38% vs. NOA 1.95%) and having the difficulties these problems have caused (COA 21.66% vs. AOA 26.73% vs. NOA 19.34%, p < 0.0001). Conclusion: MDD and related symptoms were significantly higher and more severe in participants with asthma compared to no asthma. Between adult-onset asthma compared to childhood onset asthma, adult-onset asthma had slightly greater and more severe MDD and related symptoms compared to childhood onset asthma.
