New Research on Childhood Obesity

As indicated by an examination, in the course of recent years, youth heftiness rates have in truth held unfaltering. What's more, regardless of very much supported and exceptionally plugged national crusades to battle heftiness, youth stoutness has really expanded in specific gatherings. Heftiness is a prickly issue since it includes such a significant number of variables. One principle reason is the accessibility of shoddy nourishment that is high in fat and low in sustenance. From fast food eateries to comfort stores to their own kitchens, kids are encompassed by unhealthy nourishments that may fulfil an underlying wanting however don't keep them full. Heftiness is happening in all ages, including ladies of regenerative age.

At least one elements (hereditary, behavioural and ecological) cause stoutness in kids. Physical, mental, and social medical issues are caused because of youth stoutness. Subsequently, compelling mediation systems are being utilized to avert and control stoutness in youngsters.

Putting on abundance weight amid pregnancy puts the mother at higher danger of creating gestational diabetes, and being conceived extensive is connected to youth stoutness. Heavier new-borns might probably store muscle to fat ratio than ordinary weight new-borns, which may meddle with glucose direction and the craving control frameworks of the mind, thus setting kids up to get significantly heavier all through adolescence and into adulthood. For kids who require a more exceptional intercession, there is likewise an eight-week class that joins slim down alteration, expanded physical action, push diminishment methodologies and behavioural parent preparing to assemble sound living propensities that will add to weight reduction. Children do things like measure fats and sugars in like manner snacks, take an interest in a family sustenance scrounger chase at a neighbourhood nourishment store and create productions to show sound and undesirable dietary patterns.

Kids who weren't breastfed were 50 % more inclined to be large, the examination likewise found. The examination's creators additionally found that the dung of new-born children destined to overweight moms contained more Lachnospiraceae microorganisms than the excrement of infants from ordinary weight moms. Strikingly, indulges conceived by means of caesarean area had an alternate kind of Lachnospiraceae microorganisms from those conceived vaginally.

Children and Chronic Diseases 

Children who are influenced with chronic conditions may have some activity problems, constant pain or discomfort, abnormal growth and development and more prescription, patient’s visits and medical treatments etc. Children with incessant conditions which show up in early youth will react uniquely in contrast to youngsters. School-aged children may be mostly affected by the inability to attend school and form relationships with peers.

Children often have acute, short-term illnesses such as upper respiratory tract or ear infections, gastrointestinal illness with vomiting and diarrhoea or injury-related problems. Some common chronic illnesses include asthma, cystic fibrosis, diabetes mellitus and depression. Conditions that affect the physical appearance of an infant (e.g., cleft lip and palate, hydrocephalus) can affect the bond between the infant and family members or caretakers also.

According to a study, exposure to multiple vaccine antigens before 2 years of age does not appear to increase the risk for other infectious diseases between 2 and 4 years of age.  Some researchers find that specifically, the mean number of antigens was 240.6 for children with a confirmed infection and 242.9 for children without an infection.

Regular medical care is important for all children to increase the chance that a chronic disease is diagnosed and treated early, lessening the overall impact on the child and family.

                                                      

Chronic kidney disease linked to lower IQ in children

According to a research, chronic kidney diseases in children not only affect the physical health but also impact the neurocognitive function, academic performance and mental health in children which lead to long-term consequences in adulthood.

Children with chronic kidney disease face many problems related to attention, visual and verbal memory, besides their declining physical health.The disease affect the children by scoring lower marks in tests of academic skills related to mathematics, reading and spelling.

Based upon the research, the researchers examine 3000 affected chronic kidney diseases patients under the age of 21 and found the results which showed that children with chronic kidney diseases had lower scores than the general population in executive function and memory domains.

 

New Research on Scarlet Fever

Scarlet fever may follow a throat infection caused by bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes or group-A beta-haemolytic streptococcus.

It is (also known as scarlatina) is an illness that can happen in kids who also have strep throat or strep skin infections.  The symptoms of the diseases are like the telltale rash which is the main sign of scarlet fever. It usually starts on the neck and face, often leaving a clear area around the mouth. It expands to the chest and back, lastly to the rest of the body.

In this period of time eating can be painful for kids with severe strep throat, so serving soft foods or a liquid diet may be best. For fever or throat pain, acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be given.

The bacterial infection that causes scarlet fever is contagious. Kids with scarlet fever can spread the bacteria to others through sneezing and coughing. Antibiotics used to treat scarlet fever include penicillin, cephalexin, amoxicillin, azithromycin, clarithromycin and clindamycin.

New Technology Helping smallest Infants Progress Faster

Several new technologies are now used for helping smallest babies with more rapid and healthier weight gain. Doctors have begun by using a device known as the Pea Pod to measure the body composition of the infants. By look the Pea Pod is just like a mini MRI machine. It is heated, and the baby is placed inside for approximately 3 minutes. The machine senses change in pressure and can determine the percentage of body weight by using an air displacement method. With this information health care workers can customize the baby's nutritional supplements and help them with appropriate weight gain.

In addition to improving nutrition, Scientists are also using new specially designed mattresses to help improve sleep patterns and head shape development in preemies. The mattress is known as Life nest, which is oval-shaped netting in the centre and is intended to reduce pressure on different parts of the baby's body including the head.

So, these new technologies are helping us reduce the babies' stay in the NICU (Neonatal intensive care unit) and sending them home to their families, where they belong.

Role of Folic Acid in Childhood Allergy

A new study recommends that taking folic acid in late pregnancy may build the danger of hypersensitivities like allergy in offspring affected by intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).

Folic acid is a type of vitamin B, which has been appeared to prevent defects in the neural tube -- the precursor to the central nervous system -- in a developing foetus. The neural tube develops in the principal month of pregnancy. Medical professionals regularly prescribe women to take folic acid supplement during the primary stage of pregnancy. But taking folic acid may not be required in the last stages of pregnancy. Because it may increases the risk of allergies in offspring.

Australian researchers studied on lambs regarding this topic like taking mothers with a smaller-than-normal placenta, mother with a smaller placenta that that included folic acid in the last month of gestation and mother with normal placenta and normal diet.

The research team explored systemic inflammation and tested skin reactions and found that the first group had higher levels of inflammation but no difference in skin reaction than the other two groups when exposed to dust mites. However, when the researchers experimented with egg white protein, the result indicated higher rates of allergic reaction than the first group. The results help the scientists to understand that this type of allergy risk is also affect humans as well.

                                         

5 'New'Types of Diabetes

Diabetes just got a little more complicated when a person's blood sugar (glucose) levels are too high. It's an increasingly common disease now. According to a new study, researchers are classifying diabetes as five types of disease, rather than two types.

Dr. Kathleen Wyne, an endocrinologist suggests that the new classification could be very useful for human beings.  According to her, “This is not changing the diagnosis or the terminology for the diagnosis," but it’s just providing a way to classify type 1 and type 2diabetes.

The clusters were:

Cluster 1- It is called the “severe autoimmune diabetes”. People in this cluster were not overweight when they were diagnosed.

Cluster 2- It refers to "severe insulin-deficient diabetes’’ and people in this group may have a deficiency in the cells which produce insulin.

Cluster 3- Called "severe insulin-resistant diabetes" in which insulin is prepared by the patient bodies, but their cells in body are not responding to it.

Cluster 4- Refers "mild obesity-related diabetes" this form occurred in people who had a mild form of the disease, without metabolic problems.

Cluster 5- Called "mild age-related diabetes" was the most common form of diabetes, affecting about 40 % of people in the study and the people were older at their age of diagnosis.

Hypoxia

A lower-than-normal concentration of oxygen in arterial blood, as opposed to anoxia is called hypoxemia or hypoxia. These are so dangerous which can damage the brain, liver, and other organs just minutes after symptoms start. The most common hypoxia symptoms are:

• Changes in the colour of your skin, ranging from blue to cherry red
• Confusion
• Fast heart rate
• Rapid breathing
• Shortness of breath
• Sweating
• Wheezing

The timeline from initial hypoxia to death or brain damage varies with the degree of oxygen deprivation. Minor oxygen deprivation only causes damage over time, but true hypoxia triggers near-instantaneous damage.

Treatment for Hypoxia:

A technique called The Dobkin Technique may slow the brain damage. To utilize Dobkin, put super cold water or a cold compress on the face and eyes of the hypoxia patient. The pack must be beneath 58 degrees, and must stay on the patient's face until the point when help arrives, or unless a medicinal expert instructs you to do something else.

Preterm Birth and its Prevention

Babies conceived before 34 weeks have a higher chance of passing on not long after birth or getting to be disabled than babies conceived at term. Preterm labor happens when regular contractions result in the opening of your cervix after week 20 and before week 37 of pregnancy. Preemies can also have long-term mental and physical disabilities. In developed countries, preterm birth is the leading cause of perinatal mortality as well as morbidity. In singleton pregnancies the possibility that a lady will start giving birth and convey before 34 weeks is around 1%. In twin pregnancies, the shot of such untimely birth is 10-15%.

Signs and symptoms of preterm labor:

• Regular or frequent sensations of abdominal tightening (contractions)
• Constant low, dull backache
• A sensation of pelvic abdominal pressure
• Mild abdominal cramps
• Vaginal spotting or light bleeding

Strategies to Prevent Preterm Delivery:

In women with single incubation pregnancy and a history of spontaneous preterm delivery, antenatal progesterone treatment is the best system to diminish the danger of an intermittent preterm delivery. Progesterone supplementation is helpful in these ladies beginning at 16 to 24 weeks' gestation and proceeding through 34 weeks' growth. The use of corticosteroids is associated with diminished neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Some steps also can be followed like-

• Treat any infections and have chronic medical problems addressed before you get pregnant.
• Stay as close as conceivable to your optimal weight.
• Stop smoking, drinking and using any illicit drugs.

New Insights into Baby Reflux

Reflux, also known as spitting up, which happens when the milk that baby has swallowed comes back up into his food pipe (oesophagus). On a research by Australian study reveals interesting findings about baby reflux and the root of its causes.

Baby reflux also known as Gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) occurs when the muscles between a baby’s food pipe (oesophagus) and stomach, temporarily relax. The stomach contents may come back up into the oesophagus or mouth because muscles are not fully developed.

This practice usually improves by itself by the time babies are infants.

But Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) becomes more serious when reflux leads to complications. Symptoms which show pain and discomfort in the chest or upper abdomen, gagging, frequent vomiting, excessive weight loss and delayed development.

The university’s School of Nursing and Midwifery analysed the project by analyse the hospital records from 2000-2011 and finally came to a result which were published in BMC Paediatrics, revealed maternal anxiety had strong associations with having a baby admitted in hospital with reflux.

In some case, a very small number of babies who are affected with serious underlying conditions such as cerebral palsy  operation may be needed to treat GORD by tightening the ring of muscle at the bottom of the oesophagus.

Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib)

Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib) is a bacterium in charge of serious pneumonia, meningitis and other obtrusive diseases almost only in kids matured less than 5 years. Hib likewise causes possibly serious fiery diseases of the face, mouth, blood, epiglottis, joints, heart, bones, peritoneum, and trachea. The most common types of invasive disease caused by H. influenzae are:

• Pneumonia (lung contamination)
• Bacteraemia (circulatory system contamination)
• Meningitis (infection of the tissue covering of the brain and spinal cord)
• Epiglottitis (swelling in the throat)
• Cellulitis (skin infection)

How It Spreads:

This happens when someone who has the microscopic organisms or bacteria in their nose or throat. People who are not sick but have the bacteria in their noses and throats in any case spread the microorganisms. That is the means by which H. influenza spreads more often than not.

Before routine utilization of the Hib immunization in 1988, around 20,000 kids had Hib diseases every year, including 12,000 cases of bacterial meningitis. Vaccines are the o main general wellbeing instrument equipped for keeping the greater part of genuine Hib ailment. Hib vaccines are safe and efficacious even when administered in earliest stages of infancy.

Radiation Therapy to Treat Cancer

Radiation therapy (likewise called radiotherapy) is a cancer treatment in which high doses of radiations are used to kill the cancer cells and shrink tumors. Radiation therapy does not kill growth cells immediately. It takes long days of treatment before DNA is harmed enough for growth cells to die. There are mainly 2 types of radiation therapy can be observed i.e. external and internal.

When treatments are used to ease symptoms, they are known as palliative treatments. External beam radiation may shrink tumors to treat pain and other problems caused by the tumor, such as inconvenience breathing or loss of inside and bladder control. Inner radiation treatment is regularly used to treat diseases of the head and neck, breast, cervix, prostate, eye, and certain types of thyroid cancer.

Radiation can cause symptoms that make it difficult to eat, for example, sickness, mouth injuries, and throat issues called esophagitis.

Side-effects of radiation therapy:

• loss of appetite
• nausea (feeling sick)
• digestive issues
• hair loss
• dry or sore throat or mouth

Other radiation therapy options are as follows:

Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT): This treatment is useful when vital organs are close to the tumor.

Radio immunotherapy: It uses monoclonal antibodies to deliver radiation directly to cancer cells.

Radio sensitizers and radio protectors: Researchers are studying radio sensitizers and radio protectors are substances that protect healthy tissues near the treatment area.

Trends of Robotics in Healthcare

Robotics plays a growing and critical role in digitization of healthcare sector. Application of robot based technology in medical industry has emerged beyond manufacturing or industrial robots itself in recent years. Medical robots are used for assistance in medical transportation & tele-presence, sanitation, disinfection, and prescription dispensing.

Industry players are spending on R&D to develop robotic systems that can treat major injuries. The major focus of R&D is to provide reliable and safer robotic systems for patients.

 According to a report, North America holds the largest market share around 43% in 2015 and is anticipated to witness healthy growth over the forecast period. Expanding utilizations of medical robots mainly hospitals and pharmacy robots, surgical robots etc. in U.S. and Canada is probably going to upgrade the development for medical robotics in the region.

Companies like Verb Surgical, joint venture of Johnson & Johnson and Google have invested around USD 250 million in developing faster and easy to use medical robots in the near future.

However, high expenses of careful mechanical methodology, surgical systems, and restoration exoskeleton are restraining the growth of medical robotics market. Absence of awareness about advance robotic solutions and absence of in fact talented work force are likewise obstructing the market development.

Antacids,Antibiotics linked to later Allergies in Babies

Study recommends that, new born children who are given antacids like Zantac or Pepcid will probably create childhood allergies, perhaps because these drugs maybe in light of the fact that may modify their gut bacteria.

Records shows, kids born between 2001 and 2016, 10 percent of the babies received antacids, reflecting the popularity of treating reflux in infancy.

For kids who received an antacid during their initial a half year, the chances of developing a food allergy multiplied and the chances of building up a serious unfavourably severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis or hay fever were around 50 percent higher.

Gut bacteria play an important role in a healthy immune system. Antibiotics and antacids might change the makeup of a baby’s micro biome. Antacids additionally change the way protein is processed and some may modify advancement of immune system pathways.
