Perceptual and instrumental analysis of laryngeal function after traumatic brain injury in childhood

Objective: To investigate laryngeal function and phonatory disturbance in children with traumatic brain injury (TBI), using both perceptual and instrumental techniques. Design and participants: The performance of 16 individuals with moderate to severe TBI acquired in childhood and 16 nonneurologicatly impaired control subjects was compared on a battery of perceptual (Frenchay Dysarthria Assessment, speech sample analysis) and instrumental (Aerophone II, laryngograph) assessments. Results and conclusions: As a group, the children with TBI demonstrated normal, or only minimally impaired laryngeal function, when compared with the control group, which contrasts with the significant laryngeal impairment noted in adults after TBI. Several reasons for the different findings in relation to laryngeal function in adults and children after TBI are postulated: (1) differing types of injury usually incurred by adults and children may result in a relatively decreased degree of neurologic impairment in these children, (2) differences in recovery potential between adults and children, and (3) the pediatric larynx is still developing, hence it may be better able to compensate for any impairment incurred.

Serious lead poisoning in childhood: Still a problem after a century

Objective: To describe a series of patients with clinically significant lead poisoning. Methodology: A case series of nine patients with lead poisoning who required inpatient management, identified through a Clinical Toxicology Service. Results: Nine children presented with clinically significant lead poisoning. The median serum lead was 2.5 mumol/L (range 1.38-4.83). Eight of the children were exposed to lead-based paint, with seven due to dust from sanded lead paint during house renovations. Serial blood determinations suggested re-exposure in four of the patients, and in one of these patients the re-exposure was from a different source of lead. Eight of the patients required chelation therapy. Conclusions: Serious lead poisoning continues to occur and there appears to be complacency regarding the hazard posed by lead paint in old houses.

The morning after the night before: campfires revisited

Even eight hours after a campfire has been extinguished with sand, it retains sufficient heat to cause a full-thickness burn with contact of one second. Because extinguishing with sand disguises the danger, this is a particular hazard for children. The only safe way to extinguish a campfire is with water.

Evaluating parent use of functional communication training to replace and enhance prelinguistic behaviours in six children with developmental and physical disabilities

Purpose: To evaluate parent use of functional communication training (FCT) to replace and enhance prelinguistic behaviours in six young children with developmental and physical disabilities. Method: Initially, the communicative functions of the children's prelinguistic behaviours were assessed by parent interviews. Three communication functions were identified for each child and intervention goals to replace or enhance the child's existing prelinguistic behaviours were developed in consultation with parents. After a baseline phase, parents received training on implementation of FCT. Intervention was staggered across the three communicative functions in a multiple-probe design. Results: Intervention was associated with increases in the replacement communication behaviour. Treatment gains were generally maintained at the monthly follow-ups. Conclusion: The results suggest that parents can use FCT to enhance communication skills in children with developmental and physical disabilities.

Similar antibody concentrations in Filipino infants at age 9 months, after 1 or 3 doses of an adjuvanted, 11-valent pneumoccoccal diphtheria/tetanus-Conjugated Vaccine: a randomized controlled trial

In Filipino infants, 1 dose of an adjuvanted, 11-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (serotypes 1, 4, 5, 7F, 9V, 19F, and 23F conjugated to tetanus protein; and serotypes 3, 6B, 14, and 18C conjugated to diphtheria toxoid) administered alone at age 18 weeks (11PncTD1) elicited similar antibody concentrations at age 9 months as those elicited by 3 doses (11PncTD3) administered concomitantly with national program vaccines, at ages 6, 10, and 14 weeks. Geometric mean antibody concentrations ranged from 0.36 mug/mL ( for serotype 18C) to 5.81 mug/mL (for serotype 4), for the 11PncTD1 vaccine, and from 0.32 mug/mL (for serotype 18C) to 5.01 mug/mL (for serotype 19F), for the 11PncTD3 vaccine. The proportion of infants with threshold antibody concentrations greater than or equal to0.35 mug/mL was also similar (ranges, 55.6%-100% for the 11PncTD1 vaccine and 42.9%-100% for the 11PncTD3 vaccine). The functional activity of antibodies expressed as opsonophagocytic activity titers was similar in the 11PncTD1 and 11PncTD3 groups. This finding is an important one for countries with financial constraints and high pneumococcal disease burden.
