REZUMAT

Refluxul gastroesofagian la nou-născut şi sugar se particularizează prin patogenie, încadrare diagnostică şi abordare terapeutică, imaturitatea funcţională a aparatului digestiv, imaturitatea anatomică a sfincterului esofagian inferior Hiss şi aciditatea gastrică mai mică. În cazul sugarilor se ţine cont şi de complianţa redusă la procedurile laborioase cum sunt pH-metria, impedanţ-pH-metria şi endoscopia degestivă. Graniţa dintre regurgitaţii, reflux gastroesofagian fiziologic şi boală de reflux este uneori dificil de trasat. Modificarea stilului de viaţă la sugari (alimentaţia şi modificările poziţionale), prin obţinerea aderenţei mamei la recomandările medicale reprezintă un prim pas în tratamentul RGE, fiind urmat în cazurile non-responsive de terapia farmacologică şi intervenţia chirurgicală.

GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX IN NEWBORNS AND INFANTS (II)

, , , and

ABSTRACT

Gastroesophageal reflux in newborns and infants is particularized by pathogeny, diagnosis and therapeutical approach, functional immaturity of the digestive tract, the anatomic immaturity of the Hiss lower esophageal sphincter and lower gastric acidity. In infants, the low compliance with the laborious procedures such as pHmetry, impedance – pH-metry and digestive endoscopy is also considered. The border between regurgitations, physiological gastroesophageal reflux and the reflux disease is sometimes hard to establish. Changing the lifestyle of infants (feeding and position changes) based on the mother’s compliance with the medical recommendations is a first step in the treatment of GER, followed in non-responsive cases by pharmacological therapy and surgery.

REZUMAT

Agenţii antiinflamatori nesteroidieni (AINS) produc leziuni gastrice prin intermediul a două mecanisme: iritaţia locală şi acţiunea sistemică. Un copil în vârstă de 2 ani şi 10 luni, sex feminin, a primit AINS timp de 2 zile pentru o infecţie acută a tractului respirator superior şi a prezentat vărsături în „zaţ de cafea“ o zi mai târziu. Endoscopia digestivă superioară a evidenţiat o leziune de ulcer gastric. Biopsia gastrică a fost negativă pentru infecţia cu H. pylori, iar pacienta a fost diagnosticată cu ulcer gastric acut indus de consumul de AINS în absenţa altor cauze de ulcer gastric. Ulcerele gastrice se dezvoltă foarte rar după o administrare pe termen scurt de AINS, fapt ce a determinat raportarea acestui caz. Luând în considerare atât riscurile cât şi beneficiile terapiei cu AINS, este indicat ca în cazul fiecărui pacient care trebuie să urmeze un tratament cronic cu medicamente antiinflamatorii să fie căutaţi posibilii factori de risc asociaţi.

GASTRIC ULCER AFTER SHORT-TERM NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS ADMINISTRATION IN A SMALL CHILD – CASE REPORT

, , , , and

ABSTRACT

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs) produce gastric lesions through two mechanisms: local irritation and systemic action. A 2 year and 10 months old female received NSAID for acute upper respiratory infection for 2 days and she developed coffee ground vomitus one day later. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a gastric ulcer. She was negative for H. pylori infection, and she was diagnosed with NSAID – induced acute gastric ulcer in the absence of other causes of gastric ulcer. Gastric ulcers develop very rarely after a short-term administration of NSAIDs, which prompted us to report this case. Balancing the risk and the benefit of eradication therapy, it is indicated, for every patient who must follow a chronic treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs, to look for possible associated risk factors.

PATTERN-URI CLINICO-DEMOGRAFICE ALE DEPRESIEI SI ANXIETATII LA COPII SI ADOLESCENTI

REZUMAT

Atât la adulţi cât şi în cazul populaţiei pediatrice, depresia constituie o cauză majoră de dizabilitate, suicidul fiind a treia cauză de deces în rândul copiilor şi adolescenţilor. Cu toate că depresia şi depresia cu anxietate asociată sunt unele dintre cele mai frecvente patologii psihiatrice în rândul copiilor şi adolescenţilor, având un impact puternic asupra funcţionalităţii globale a acestora şi punând o amprentă remarcabilă asupra procesului lor de dezvoltare, rămâne un domeniu insuficient explorat. Studiul de faţă îşi propune evidenţierea unor pattern-uri demografice şi clinice asociate depresiei şi anxietăţii la copii şi adolescenţi, care pot constitui premise pentru cercetări viitoare mai ample, dar şi pentru consolidarea unor metode de prevenţie primară, secundară şi terţiară.

CLINICO-DEMOGRAPHIC PATTERNS OF DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS

, , , , , and

ABSTRACT

In both adults and pediatric population, depression is a major disability cause; suicide is the third death cause among children and adolescents. Whereas depression and depression with associated anxiety are among the most common psychiatric pathologies in children and adolescents (with strong impact on their global functionality and with a significant influence on their development process), they are far from studied thoroughly. This study aims to highlight certain demographic and clinical patterns associated to depression of anxiety in children and adolescents, which may represent premises for broader future research and for the consolidation of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention methods.

REZUMAT

Infecţia cu Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) este o problemă comună şi semnificativă de sănătate publică.
Obiectiv. Determinarea prevalenţei infecţiei cu H. pylori la copiii cu simptomatologie sugestivă şi conturarea cazurilor în funcţie de tipul şi felul gastritei prin efectuarea de endoscopii digestive superioare.
Material şi metodă. Studiu retrospectiv realizat pe o perioadă de 5 ani pe 1.269 de copii cu simptomatologie gastrică, la care s-au efectuat endoscopii cu biopsie, stabilindu-se rata de infecţie cu H. pylori prin examen direct sau testul ureazei.
Rezultate. Frecvenţa H. pylori în cazul gastritei acute a fost semnificativ mai mică (34,78%) comparativ cu frecvenţa acesteia în cazul gastritei cronice (54,94%). În cadrul celor 10 tipuri de gastrită, cele mai frecvente sunt formele purpurice (43,66%), nodular purpurică (25,93%) şi nodular antrală (15,84%), la polul opus situându-se gastrita atrofică şi hipertrofică. Asocierile cele mai frecvente decelate endoscopic sunt cu esofagita gr I în 51,6%, duodenita în 45,07% şi forma purpurică în 24,74%.
Concluzii. Infecţia cu H. pylori este cel mai frecvent asociată gastritei cronice (54,94%). Identificarea precoce a infecţiei este esenţială pentru eradicarea bacteriei şi prevenirea apariţiei diferitelor tipuri de gastrită identificate endoscopic.

GASTRITIS AND HELICOBACTER PYLORI IN CHILDREN – PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ENDOSCOPIC DIAGNOSIS

ABSTRACT

The infection with Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) represents an important issue of public health.
Aim. Establishing the prevalence of H. pylori infection in children and presenting the cases according to the gastritis type by performing upper digestive endoscopies.
Material and method. The retrospective study referred to a period of 5 years and included 1269 children evaluated by upper endoscopy to establish the H. pylori infection rate.
Results. The frequency of H. pylori in the case of acute gastritis was significantly more reduced (34.78%) than in the case of chronic gastritis (54.94%). Referring to the 10 types of gastritis, the most frequent ones are purpuric (43.66%), nodular purpuric (25.93%) and nodular antral (15.84%). At the other end, atrophic and hypertrophic gastritis were positioned. The most frequent associations pointed out endoscopically are those with 1st degree esophagitis - 51.6%, duodenitis – 45.07% and purpuric duodenitis – 24.74%.
Conclusions. The H. pylori infection is the most frequent etiologic factor for chronic gastritis (54.94%). The early identification of the infection is essential to destroy the bacteria and to prevent the development of various types of gastritis that are later on endoscopically identified.
