▼ Intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) is the most common brain lesion in preterm infants and is most commonly seen in the sickest children, with 15-20% of very preterm infants developing IVH. The mortality of infants with severe IVH is 20-50 % in the neonatal period and over 50 % of surviving infants develop post-haemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) and 40-80 % develop severe neurological impairment, mainly cerebral palsy and mental retardation. To date there is no available therapy to prevent infants from developing either hydrocephalus or serious neurological disability. Infants who develop hydrocephalus receive a life-long ventriculo-peritoneal shunt, which is an efficient means of preventing ventricular distension but does not reduce neurological impairment. Mechanisms leading to brain damage and hydrocephalus following IVH are complex and incompletely understood. However, inflammation and oxidative stress have been identified as two major culprits leading to irreversible damage in the vulnerable immature periventricular brain matter. Dysfunction of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production contributes to the development of PHVD but the exact molecular mechanisms remain unknown. The choroid plexus, which produces the CSF, is adjacent to the origin of IVH and is the first organ to encounter the extravasated blood. The subsequent haemolysis of red blood cells causes release of cell-free haemoglobin (Hb), which will with time further degrade releasing the toxic substances hemin, free iron, and various ROS (reactive oxygen species). Metabolites of cell-free Hb have been identified as an initiator of inflammation in the context of adult cerebral haemorrhage and inflammation of the ependyma has been shown to cause alterations of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Our working hypothesis is that cell-free Hb and its metabolites act as causal initiators of inflammation following IVH, constituting a critical up-stream event eventually leading to periventricular cell death. We further hypothesize that inflammation of the choroid plexus alters the ability of the epithelium to maintain CSF homeostasis contributing to the formation of post-haemorrhagic hydrocephalus. To test the hypothesis we used the rabbit pup model of preterm IVH. It is excellently suited since rabbit pups have a germinal matrix with vulnerable capillary meshwork prone to rupture and have CNS maturation comparable to a 28-30 weeks preterm human infant. The application of high-frequency ultrasound enabled accurate measurements of haemorrhagic size and distension as well as ultrasound guided intraventricular injections and CSF sampling. Following IVH there is a release of free haemoglobin in its reduced form, oxyHb, into the intraventricular space. OxyHb autooxidises to metHb over time and the concentration of the key inflammatory cytokine TNF-α is highly correlated to that of metHb. In an astrocyte cell culture, metHb induces TNF-α production whereas oxyHb does not. We therefore conclude that the formation of metHb is a key up-stream event leading to inflammation…

▼ Participating in physical activity promotes physical and mental health. Children with physical disabilities are not as physically active as other children. They tend to participate in lower intensity physical activity, choose more passive activities with less variety and have more sedentary time. The overall aim of this thesis was to gain knowledge about participation in physical activities, to identify associated factors for school and leisure time and to explore the perceived experiences of the children and the parents about possible facilitators or barriers associated with physical activities. A further aim was to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of Physical Activity Referral (PAR) and outcome measures for children with physical disabilities and its effectiveness on increasing participation in physical activity and decreasing sedentary behaviour. The thesis is comprised of three studies with children with various gross- and fine motor, communicative and cognitive functions. In Study I (Paper I) a total population of 364 children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 7-17 years was studied by using cross-sectional data from the National Quality Registry CP follow-up programme (CPUP). In Study II qualitative interviews with 16 children with CP, aged 8-11 years (Paper II), and with 25 of their parents (Paper III) were performed and analysed by content analysis. In Study III (Paper IV), 14 children with physical disabilities, aged 7-12 years, participated in PAR together with 24 of their parents. The intervention was based on a written agreement of self-selected physical activities, motivational interviewing (MI), goal-directed outcome measurements Canadian Occupational Performance measure (COPM) and Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS) and assessments including Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66), physical activity monitors, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and other questionnaires at baseline, and after 8 and 11 months. Children and adolescents with more severe motor limitations, with intellectual disability and with thinness seem to have the greatest needs for interventions to increase their participation in physical activities and reduce sedentary behaviour. Children discussed that they want to be asked about their wishes and needs, and get the opportunity to try self-selected physical activities with individualised support, as well as to have fun with family and friends, have someone to do the activity with and enjoy the sensation of speed. Environmental factors could be either facilitators or barriers, while pain, fatigue and the perception of not being good enough were considered barriers. The parents experienced several challenges when their child wanted to be physically active: parents wanted to protect their child while also pushing them towards independence. They wanted competent persons to be available to assist their child in participating in the physical activities and support them in finding friends to be active with. Family culture and attitudes affect children’s…

▼ The aim of this thesis was to develop a non-invasive method to quantify the size of a shunt through a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) by ultrasound and to test its usability in clinical settings. There is no consensus regarding the optimal management strategy for a PDA in premature infants. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are the first treatment of choice. The use of NSAIDs, especially indomethacin, should be carefully balanced, as they have their disadvantages. In our experimental study in lambs, indomethacin acutely reduced the coronary flow by up to 50% and the effect lasted for up to one hour. In our lamb model, we developed a non-invasive method to quantify the ductal shunt by ultrasound. The flow was measured with electromagnetic flow meters in the ascending aorta and in the ductus and a colour Doppler image was obtained simultaneously over the main pulmonary artery longitudinal cross-section including ductal inflow. The percentage of colour pixels representing ductal flow was quantified in the main pulmonary artery outlined by anatomic landmarks. There was a correlation between the ratio of pulmonary to systemic flow (Qp/Qs) and the percentage of total colours covering the cross-section and there was an even better correlation with green pixels alone. When the Qp/Qs was ≥ 1.5:1, the percentage of green pixels in PALS was ≥ 50. In children admitted for the device closure of the open ductus, the method had 92% sensitivity for a measured Qp/Qs of ≥ 1.5. In preterm infants during the first three days of life, the ductal diameter but not the quantified ductal shunt predicted the need for treatment. We showed further that the perinatal cytokine burden during the first three days of life is not associated with an increased need to close the ductus, but it is associated with increased ductal diameter and reduced systolic blood pressure. We suggest that our method could be used as a non-invasive tool to determine a haemodynamically significant ductal shunt. Using the evaluated Qp/Qs of > 1.5:1 as a guide for treatment decisions might reduce the need for unnecessary interventions and reduce complications.

The main steroidogenic organs in mammals, the adrenal glands and gonads, arise from a common pool of mesodermal progenitor cells during embryogenesis. Precise gene regulation controls cell differentiation, growth, and homeostasis in the developing embryo and the adult. Disruptions of these spatiotemporal processes are linked to a variety of diseases, including developmental disorders, malignant transformations, and infertility. This dissertation focuses on the molecular mechanisms that regulate normal and neoplastic cell development in the adrenal cortex and testis of the mouse. The initiation of gene transcription requires the binding of transcription factors to specific cis-regulatory elements within DNA. Methylation of cytosine residues affects transcription factor binding to these regulatory elements; hypermethylation results in condensed chromatin that is inaccessible to the transcriptional machinery, whereas hypomethylation is an indicator of active gene transcription. Alterations in DNA methylation have been linked to neoplasia. We used a novel method of genome-wide methylation profiling, termed Laser Capture Microdissection-Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing, to characterize the changes in promoter methylation associated with gonadectomy-induced adrenocortical neoplasia in the mouse. One of the genes upregulated during gonadectomy-induced adrenocortical neoplasia is Gata4, a transcription factor normally absent in the adult adrenal gland. To determine whether GATA4 directly modulates tumorigenesis we analyzed mice with germline or conditional loss-of-function mutations in this gene. GATA4 deficiency was associated with reduced tumor growth and decreased expression of sex steroidogenic markers. GATA4 is expressed in testicular Leydig cells. To gain insight into the role of GATA4 in this cell type, we performed gene silencing experiments in a mouse Leydig cell tumor line (mLTC-1) and in primary mouse Leydig cells. Comprehensive analyses, including transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling, showed that Gata4 silencing was associated with diminished sex steroid production and impaired glycolysis. Conditional deletion of Gata4 in another testicular somatic cell type, the Sertoli cell, has been reported to increase the permeability of the blood-testis barrier (BTB) and disrupt spermatogenesis in adult mice. To elucidate the molecular underpinnings of these phenotypic abnormalities, we performed Gata4 gene silencing experiments in an immortalized Sertoli cell line (TM4) and in primary mouse Sertoli cells. GATA4 depletion was associated with altered expression of genes involved in BTB maintenance, including components of tight/adherens junctions (e.g., Tjp1, Cldn12) and the extracellular matrix (e.g., Lamc1, Col4a5). Gata4 gene silencing impaired the production of lactate, a key Sertoli cell-derived nutrient that is essential for proper spermatogenesis.

▼ Background: The major activity components that make up the 24 hours of daily life, the so-called 'movement continuum' are sleep, comprising ~40% of time, sedentary behaviour (~40%), low intensity physical activity (LPA) (~15%), and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (~5%). To address fully the impact of movement behaviour on children's health, it is necessary to study the relationship between each of these components of the 'movement continuum' and children's health. Asthma is a chronic childhood disease that impacts children's activity and alters the balance between movement continuum components. Few studies have attempted to investigate the association between asthma and movement continuum components. The relationship between asthma in children and physical activity and sedentary behaviour is conflicting. Some studies suggested that asthmatic children are less physically active and more sedentary; others suggested that they are more active and less sedentary or that there are no differences between asthmatic and healthy children. The factors that led to this conflict are not clear. We conducted a systematic review that reviewed available published evidence regarding the association between objectively measured physical activity, sedentary behaviour and asthma in school aged children. The effect of asthma attacks on the movement continuum components is unclear, especially in the Middle East area. We hypothesized that in the acute stage following an asthma attack; children are less physically active, more sedentary and have sleep disturbances compared to the recovery stage. During recovery from asthma attack, there is inter individual variability in changes of movement continuum components. We conducted an observational study to measure levels of asthma control and movement continuum components of Kuwaiti school aged children week 1 and week 4 following an asthma attack. The study also compared movement continuum components of asthmatics at week 4 following an asthma attack with the same measurements in healthy controls. Methods: In our systematic review, a literature search of EMBASE, Medline, CINHAL, Cochrane library and PubMed was performed to identify articles published in English between 2000-2017 in which either physical activity or sedentary behaviour or both were assessed objectively in 6-12 years old school aged children with asthma in case-control, cross-sectional or longitudinal (cohort) studies. In our prospective study we recruited 23 asthmatic children admitted to Kuwaiti hospitals following an asthma attack (mean age of 8.1 (SD 2.02) yrs). For the control group, 23 healthy children from Kuwait youth centres (mean age of 9.0 (1.72) yrs) were recruited. Measurements of asthmatic children at week 1 (acute stage) were compared to those at week 4 after discharge from hospital (recovery stage). Measurements of asthmatic children at the recovery stage were compared to those in healthy controls. Asthma symptoms were assessed by Childhood Asthma Control Test (CACT) questionnaire. Pulmonary function…

▼ Primary care is responsible for the majority of children’s healthcare contact, yet there is a dearth of research into the safety of care provided to children in this setting. Confidential Enquiries highlight the need for improved vaccination, better recognition of seriously unwell children, and improved management of children with chronic conditions. This thesis therefore aimed to explore deficiencies in the vaccination process and in the primary care provided to ‘unwell’ children. A cross-sectional mixed methods study of paediatric safety incidents involving vaccination or ‘unwell’ children, from primary care between 2002-2013 was conducted. The free-texts of 3913 reports submitted to the National Reporting and Learning System were classified to describe: incident types, contributory factors, incident outcomes, and severity of harm outcomes. Additionally, a literature review was conducted to identify potential interventions to address problem areas identified. Key vaccination-related failures included vaccination with the wrong number of doses, at the wrong time, or with the wrong vaccine. Documentation failures and staff mistakes frequently underpinned these incidents, and vulnerable groups appeared more prone to incidents. Key incidents involving ‘unwell’ children were related to: medication provision; and failures of diagnosis, assessment, referral, and communication, primarily related to telephone assessments. Medication errors were often the result of staff mistakes and failing to follow protocols. Incidents related to telephone assessment of ‘unwell’ children were often precipitated by protocol problems such as failing to assess children using the appropriate protocol. The findings presented in this thesis provide an overview of paediatric safety problems in primary care, in addition to offering recommendations for improvement. Example recommendations include building IT infrastructure to address vaccination-related documentation discrepancies; electronic transmission of prescriptions to community pharmacies to reduce dispensing errors; and adapting clinical decision software to improve paediatric telephone-based assessments. The hypotheses generated from this work will form the basis of future work.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Most of the risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD) such as hypertension, dyslipidaemia, smoking, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), obesity, physical inactivity and heredity are common in South African populations, with Indians ranking among those with the highest prevalence in the country. Little published literature is available on eating patterns in pre-school children in the Indian population. Therefore, this study a ims to assess the nutritional status of a group of Indian pre-school children in Howick West (a small suburb in the Kwa-Zulu Natal Midlands). Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 50 Indian pre-school children between the ages of 1-5 years, randomly selected from a total of 632 available Indian households in Howick West. Written, informed consent was obtained from the mother/caregiver of each child that participated in the study. Standardized and validated 24-hour-recall (24-H-R) and quantitative food frequency questionnaires (QFFQ), used in the National Food Consumption Survey (NFCS) of 1999, were adapted and used to assess habitual intake and eating patterns of the 50 Indian pre-school children. Height and weight measurements using standardized methodology were used to assess the anthropometric status of the children. Results: The prevalence of underweight was 14%. Stunting affected only 8% of the children, and 2% were at risk of overweight. The mean energy intakes of the children were above that recommended for age. A high fat intake was observed, with total fat contributing 42% to the daily total energy (TE) intake. The contributions of total carbohydrate and protein to TE intake were 45% and 10%, respectively. Low mean intakes of the following micronutrients were observed (less than 67% of the RDA): Calcium (22% of the children), Vitamin D (90%), Zinc (56%) and Iodine (90%), respectively. Based on the 24-H-R, the intakes of the remaining micronutrients were either above or equivalent to that recommended for age when compared to the 1989 RDAs. Conclusions: Despite a relatively high prevalence of underweight compared to overweight in these preschoolers, dietary analysis has indicated adequate dietary intakes in terms of total energy recommended for the age groups studied. However, total fat intake which represented 42% of TE, was high, with saturated fat (SF) contributing 15% to TE intake. This finding is cause for concern as excessive consumption of dietary fat has been implicated in the aetiology of CVD, obesity and some forms of cancer, and CHD is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in South Africa, especially among the Indian segment of the population.

▼ [EN] The contingent of this research were 272 children with critical congenital heart diseases (CCHD) from the region of North-East Bulgaria studied retrospectively for the period of 25 years. Congenital structural cardiopaties manifested in neonatal period with congestive heart failure, cardiogenic shock and/or severe hypoxemia were considered as critical. The above required urgent intervention, otherwise the children would have been dead till the end of the 3rd month. All the patients were divided into 3 different groups according to a hemodynamic criteria: obstructive lesions of the systemic circulation (OLSC), obstructive lesions of the pulmonary circulation (OLPC) and nonobstructive mixing cardiopathies (NMCP). The frequency of CCHD diagnosis was 12.5% of all congenital heart diseases. The most common were: transposition of the great arteries, coarctation of the aorta and hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Cyanosis was usually the first clinical manifestation, which supported the need of introduction of routine, neonatal pulse oximetry screening. More that ¼ of newborns with clinically manifested symptoms until day 4 remained undiagnosed. Diagnosis was set mainly in children’s hospitals. 15.8% of newborns were discharged without established heart disease, and in 22% the initial diagnosis was incorrect. Natural progression estimates 75% unfavorable outcome for patients within the 1st month. Interventional operative procedures were performed in 51.5% of the cases, with significant increase in recent years. The most unfavorable surgical results were reported in the cases of OLPC and after palliative corrections. Postoperative mortality rate was 40.7% and the overall mortality – 66.9 percent. Risk factors affecting prognosis were as follows: type and hemodynamic of CCHD, univentricular heart anatomy, extracardiac anomalies and syndromes, prematurity, prenatal depression, children from the countryside, time of clinical manifestation, leading cyanosis and lack of a heart murmur. Diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms were put forward. ////////// ////////// [BG] Ретроспективно са изследвани 272 деца с критични вродени сърдечни малформации (КВСМ) от североизточна България за 25 тодишен период. За критични са приети вродени структурни кардиопатии, изявяващи се неонатално с неовладима сърдечна недостатъчност, кардиогенен шок и/или тежка хипоксемия. Те изискват спешна интервенция или загиват до края на 3-я месец. Всички пациенти са разделени по хемодинамичен принцип в 3 групи: обструктивни лезии на системната циркулация (ОЛСЦ), обструктивни лезии на белодробната циркулация (ОЛБЦ) и необструктивни смесващи кардиопатии (НСКП). Честотата на КВСМ е 12,5% от всички вродени кардиопатии. Най-чести са: транспозицията на големите артерии, коарктацията на аортата и синдромът на хипопластично ляво сърце. Най-честата първа клинична изява е цианозата, което подкрепя необходимостта от въвеждането на рутинен неонатален пулс оксиметричен скрининг.

▼ [EN] The subject of this thesis is chosen due to the growing frequency of kidney stone disease not only in adults, but in children as well, its role in developing chronic kidney disease, and the fact that Bulgaria is considered to be an endemic zone. Nephrolithiasis in children requires discussion on its aetiology, risk and predisposal factors, clinical features, diagnosis, therapy and prevention. Retrospective and prospective studies were performed, including all children hospitalized at the Department of Paediatrics at MHAT Ruse, Bulgaria, between 2004 and 2015. The purpose of the study was to determine frequency, inheritance, age and sex distribution, clinical presentation and diagnosis. Structural and metabolic risks were estimated, as well as complications and treatment prognosis. A special attention was paid to risk and predisposing factors for kidney stone disease and the possibilities to modify their influence. The comparison between children with nephrolithiasis and healthy controls allows to estimate the statistically significant differences in status, laboratory results and imaging tests findings. The methods of medical statistics help to determine risk and protective factors for kidney stone disease expression. Creating a Register of all children diagnosed with kidney stone disease in the region of Ruse will facilitate the management of patients, physicians’ control and preventing the development of chronic kidney disease. /////////// /////////// [BG] Изборът на темата е обусловен от нарастващата честота на заболяването, разпространението му сред всички възрастови групи, ролята му за развитие на ХБЗ/ хронично бъбречно заболяване/, както и ендемичния му характер за България. Бъбречно – каменната болест сред педиатричната популация поставя редица въпроси, свързани с етиологията, рисковите и предразполагащи фактори, особеностите в клиничното протичане, диагностика, лечение и профилактика. Извършените ретроспективни и проспективни изследвания обхващат хоспитализираните с тази диагноза деца в отделение Педиатрия на МБАЛ – Русе от 2004г. до 2015г. Направен е опит да се определят основните характеристики на заболяването като честота, наследственост, възрастово и полово разпределение, клинична изява и диагностициране. Оценен е структурния и метаболитен риск, наблюдаваните усложнения и прогноза. Особено внимание е отделено на рисковите и предразполагащи фактори за развитие на болестта и възможностите за въздействие върху тях. Сравнителният анализ между децата с БКБ и контролна група здрави пациенти дава възможност да се установят статистически значимите разлики между тях, касаещи обективно състояние, клинико-лабораторни и образни изследвания. Чрез методите на медицинската статистика са изведени рисковите и протективни фактори за изява на болестта. Създаването на регистър на децата с бъбречно – каменна болест в Русенски регион би спомогнало за обхващането им от специалист, който познава протичането й и е в състояние да контролира лечението и превенцията й с цел предотвратяване …

▼ [EN] Ultrasound navigation for access to blood circulation is a relatively new method in the daily clinical practice. Technical skills and means, benefits and disadvantages of this method applied for children represent a serious challenge. Difficulties and unacceptably high failure frequency in conventional practice for central venous line cannulation often required in intensive treatment of children inspires our interest and creates the reasons for this study. In 60 children, the right vena jugularis interna (RVJI) was cannulated. Depending on the method used, two primary groups were created: a group with ultrasound real time navigation and a group of anatomic technique (AT), each with 30 children. In each of the two primary groups, the children are divided by age to two subgroups: group I with children below 12 months of age, and group II, with children above 12 months of age. The point is to estimate the specific anatomic characteristics influence on the general success rate, the success rate from a first attempt, the number of attempts performed to achieve success, duration and frequency of complications during vein cannulation, depending on the method. Research within paediatric population for providing an access to VJU showed high effectiveness and safety of the manipulation when administering ultrasound real time navigation method, in transversal plan, on the cricoid cartilage level. Study results show statistically significant decrease of failure frequency, the number of punctures performed, the manipulation duration and the frequency of subcutaneous haematoma formation, as well as increase of success rate for vein cannulation from first time, when using an ultrasound navigation for VJI cannulation in children. Administering ultrasound real time navigation for VJI cannulation in children is a highly informative study for checking the guide position before dilatation and introducing catheter. ////////////// ////////////// [BG] В ежедневната клинична практика, използването на Ултразвукова навигация при осигуряване на достъп до кръвообращението е относително нов метод. Техническите умения и прийоми, ползите и недостатъците на методиката в детска възраст, представляват сериозно предизвикателство. Трудностите и неприемливо високата честота на неуспехите при използването на конвенционалната практика за канюлиране на централен венозен път, често налагаща се при осъществяване на Интензивно лечение на малките пациенти, инспирира нашия интерес и формира основанията за настоящото проучване. При 60 деца е канюлирана вена югуларис интерна в дясно. В зависимост от използвания метод са формирани две основни групи: Група с УЗ навигация в реално време и Група по Анатомична техника, всяка с по 30 деца. Във всяка от двете основни групи децата са възрастово разделени на две подгрупи: група I с деца под 1г. и група II, с деца над 1 година. Смисълът на това е да се прецени влиянието на специфичните анатомични особености, върху общата успеваемост, успеваемостта от първи опит, броят направени опити до постигане на…

▼ [EN] Diagnosing infants and children with GERD is often a challenge. The suspected symptoms of GERD are non-specific at this age. The investigated breastfed infants are 0 to 12 months old with clinical presentation of GERD; they meet the criteria of reflux according to Orenstein’s questionnaire and those of an additional questionnaire that we have developed to assess the extra-oesophageal symptoms. We have performed a pre- and post-treatment pH-monitoring. The sooner the diagnosis of GERD is made, the faster the troublesome symptoms resolve and the severity of the components of the pH-monitoring is alleviated. Following the establishment of GERD is the question of treatment options. Using thickened milk formula resolves symptoms such as apnoea and cyanosis as well as part of the oesophageal symptoms. However milk formulas can’t affect the number of acid refluxes and reflux episodes, as well as their duration. There is a significant reduction in the number of postprandial refluxes. The use of alginate and PPI relieves symptoms such as apnoea and cyanosis, burping, Sandifer syndrome and remarkably alleviates the regurgitation and vomiting. When analysing the results of MII pH monitoring after treatment with the aforementioned drugs, we established a significant improvement in Boix Ochoa score, SI, SSI, SAP as well as the number of clinically relevant refluxes. There is a marked reduction of the postprandial refluxes when applying combined therapy. The treatment strategy requires patient-oriented approach, sometimes using combined treatment. //////////// //////////// [BG] Диагнозата на ГЕРБ често е трудна. Предполагаемите симптоми на ГЕРБ при кърмачета и деца са често неспецифични. Обследвани са кърмачета от 0- до 12-месечна възраст с клинични симптоми на ГЕРБ, покриващи данните за рефлукс според въпросника на Orenstein и допълнително разработен от нас въпросник, покриващ екстраезофагеалните симптоми. На пациентите са направени по две рН-метрии преди и след лечението. Колкото по-рано се постави диагнозата ГЕРБ и се започне адекватно лечение, толкова по-бързо отзвучават тревожещите родителите симптоми и подобряване в показателите на рН-метрията. След диагностицирането на ГЕРБ стои въпросът как да се лекува кърмачето. При използването на гъсти млечни формули е налице подобряване на симптомите като апнея с цианоза и част от езофагеалните. Млечните формули обаче не повлияват броя на киселите рефлукси, рефлуксните епизоди, както и тяхната продължителност значимо. Но значително подобрение е налице в броя на постпрандиалните рефлукси. При лечението с алгинат и ИПП са налице подобрения по отношение на симптомите като апнея с цианоза, хълцане, синдром на Sandifer, значително намалели симптоми като регургитация и повръщане. При анализа на показателите от ММИ рН-метрия след лечението с двата препарата е налице значимо повлияване на Boix Ochoa score, SI, SSI, SAP като и броя на значимите рефлукси.

▼ [EN] Maternal biochemical screening is a method of genetic prophylaxis and aims to provide a maximum accurate individual risk assessment for the most common and clinically relevant aneuploidy in the foetus, detecting mainly Down syndrome (trisomy 21). The process includes informed gynaecologist, certified ultrasound specialist in fetal anatomy, accredited laboratory, trained genetic counsellor, and a collaborative patient. Performance outcomes are expected to vary depending on the applied method, and there is no definite opinion on the choice of a particular approach. Genetic counselling should be offered to every pregnant woman, explaining test’s advantages and disadvantages. In Bulgaria there is no systematized results published over a long period of time. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of the program provided by the Laboratory of Medical Genetics, St. Marina University Hospital - Varna for ten years. The main aspects for validity of the test are evaluated - sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value. Despite the widespread introduction of new cell free fetal DNA tests, biochemical screening remains the most widely used method and, together with the medical-genetic counselling, aims to provide optimal prenatal care with the best possible outcome for both the mother and the foetus. ////////// ////////// [BG] Майчин биохимичен скрининг като метод за пренатална генетична профилактика цели навременно осигуряване на максимално точна индивидуална оценка на риска за най-честите и клинично значими анeуплоидии при фетуса. Касае социално значими заболявания асоциирани с тежка клинична картина и/или намален интелект, като акцентира върху откриването на синдрома на Даун (тризомия 21). Включва информиран акушер-гинеколог, сертифициран ултразвуков специалист по фетална анатомия, акредитирана лаборатория, обучен генетичен консултант и колаборативна пациентка. Резултатите от ефективността очаквано варират в зависимост от възприетите подходи и не съществува категорично мнение за избор на конкретен оптимален подход. Генетично консултиране трябва да съпътства всяка стъпка от грижата за бременната, като внимателно пояснява различните аспекти на тестовете (предимства и недостатъци). За българската популация, липсват систематизирани резултати за дълъг период от време, поради което интерес представлява обобщаване на десет годишния опит на Лаборатория по медицинска генетика в МБАЛ „Св. Марина“ Варна с цел проучване ефекта от дейността. Оценени са основните елементи за валидността на генетичния тест - неговата чувствителност, специфичност и позитивна предиктивна стойност. Въпреки масово навлизащите нови неинвазивни генетични изследвания, биохимичният скрининг остава най-широко приложимия метод и заедно с медико-генетичната консултация цели да осигури оптимална пренатална грижа, с възможно най-добър резултат както за майката, така и за плода.

▼ [EN] The dissertation works out risk factors (cardio-metabolic and cardio-renal) in peripubertal full-term healthy children born small for gestational age (SGA). Their postnatal growth and catch-up until 10 years of age were followed, as well as their role for increased risk factors. Measurements of fat tissue and waist circumference (WC) were performed, blood pressure and pulse, kidney size as well as a number of metabolic markers (adiponectin, SHBG, HOMA-IR, TNF-alfa, IL-6, DHEA-S and sex steroids). All of them were significantly impaired in the otherwise healthy SGA children, with the worst values in children who accumulated most fat. We compared the data with data from more recent study of obesity with similar methodology and significant increase of total and particularly of the abdominal obesity was found. Smoothed BMI and WC percentile curves for children and adolescents aged 3 to 18 years showed full disappearance of the characteristics for the previous decades adiposity rebound at the age 3 to 6 years. In a comparative analysis 3 groups of children aged 9 years from 3 separate studies in the last 15 years showed tripled prevalence in the last 5 years. In a study of 3 to 5 year olds with relatively low prevalence of obesity, significant trend of increase with age was found in girls. Additionally, some public health aspects of obesity were studied - the influence of decreased physical activity, the attitude of family doctors towards obesity and the TV advertisement exposure of Bulgarian children. The main conclusions lead to the need of mandatory intervention for the restriction of obesity. //////// //////// [BG] Дисертационният труд разработва рискови фактори (кардиометаболитни и кардиоренални) при доносени здрави деца в перипубертетна възраст, родени малки за гестационната си възраст (МГВ).

Извършено е измерване на мастната тъкан и обиколка на талията (ОТ), артериално налягане и пулс, бъбречни размери, както и редица метаболитни маркери (адипонектин, SHBG, инсулинова резистентност - HOMA-IR, TNF-alfa, IL-6, полови стероиди и DHEA-S). Всички те са значимо влошени при иначе здрави МГВ деца, като най-лоши са показателите на тези, които са натрупали най-много мазнини Извършено е сравнение данни от по-късно проучване (на затлъстяването) със сходна методика и е установено значимо увеличение на общото и най-вече абдоминалното затлъстяване. Изработени са изгладени персентилни криви за ИТМ и ОТ при деца и юноши на възраст 3 до 18 г., от които е видно пълното изглаждане на характерното за предните поколения снижение около 3-6 г. възраст. В сравнителен анализ са проследени 3 изследвани групи на 9 г. възраст относно честота на затлъстяването и е установено утрояване в последните 5 г. В проучване на деца от 3 до 5 г. възраст, които все още са с нисък относителен дял на затлъстяване, е установено сигнификантно увеличение с възрастта при момичетата. Отделно са изследвани някои обществено-здравни аспекти на…

▼ [EN] All data indicate that obesity among children in Bulgaria is not only present but also a progressive phenomenon requiring serious scientific analysis and public measures for its future limitation. There is already evidence of increased risk of hypertension in relation to the degree of obesity according to our data concerning Bulgarian preschoolers. Measurement of fat mass by DXA is completely feasible in this age, safely and with very good scientific results. Previous studies concerning older age and adults, as well as our results provide strong evidence for the use of SHBG as metabolic risk marker associated with obesity. CRP ranks with similar importance.. The established adipokines as markers for metabolic risk in adults and adolescents, according to the data from our study are also applicable in this age group. With particularly good value turns to be HMW adiponectin and irisin showing interesting correlations which are subject to future adjustments. We used reference data from IDEFICS study which proved applicable to Bulgarian preschoolers. Although the physical activity at this age is physiologically higher, Bulgarian results are frightening regarding the currently considered as healthy levels. Not only do these young children do not move enough, but there is a significant deterioration from our previous research data 3 years ago! In conclusion, this work adds valuable scientific and practical data on total and abdominal obesity and associated metabolic risk in the preschool age. Adoption of appropriate preventive public, educational and family measures is necessary and without any delay. ///////// ///////// [BG] Всички данни показват, че затлъстяването сред децата у нас е не само налично, но и прогресиращо явление, изискващо сериозен научен анализ и обществени мерки за бъдещото му ограничаване. Според нашите данни сред българските деца в предучилищна възраст вече има данни за повишен риск от хипертония, във връзка със степента на затлъстяване. Изследването на количеството мастна маса чрез DXA е напълно осъществимо в тази възраст, безопасно и с много добри научни резултати. Предходните проучвания в по-голяма възраст и при възрастни, както и нашите резултати, дават стабилни данни за използването на SHBG като метаболитен рисков маркер, свързан със затлъстяването. С подобно значение е и CRP. Утвърдените при възрастни и юноши адипокини като маркери за метаболитен риск, според данните от настоящото изследване са приложими и в тази възрастова група. С особено добра стойност се оказва HMW адипонектин, а иризин показва интересни корелации, които подлежат на бъдещо доуточняване. Използваните от нас референтни стойности от европейското проучване IDEFICS се оказаха приложими за българските деца в предучилищна възраст. Макар ФА на тази възраст да е физиологично по-висока, при българските деца резултатите са плашещи що се отнася до покриване на нормите, смятани за здравословни понастоящем. Не само че тези малки деца не се движат достатъчно, но и отбелязваме значимо влошаване спрямо предходни наши изследвания…

▼ This thesis broadly explores multiple aspects of adolescent stalking, including perpetration and victimisation. A range of explorative methods are used to achieve this, including an empirical research paper, a single case study, a critique of a forensic risk assessment (SAVRY) used in the case study, and a systematic review. Following an introduction in Chapter One, Chapter Two describes a mixed methods research study investigating male adolescents' perceptions of low-level stalking and the behaviours and possible motives of perpetrators engaging in obsessive relational intrusive behaviour. Comparisons are made between adolescents residing in a forensic medium secure unit and young people attending a community college. Results are discussed, limitations are highlighted, and future recommendations are made. Chapter Three discusses the forensic assessment process of a male adolescent who has a history of engaging in intrusive behaviours directed towards his ex-partner. This single case study examines the young person's risk of future violent recidivism, which is assessed through utilising a widely-used youth forensic risk assessment tool. A theory-driven formulation attempts to explain his intrusive behaviours from a psychological perspective before finally providing future treatment recommendations. Chapter Four critically appraises an adolescent forensic risk assessment tool, the Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth (SAVRY; Borum, Bartel & Forth, 2002), the assessment measure used in Chapter Three. Chapter Five reviews the stalking literature, specifically examining how stalking impacts upon victims' lives. Fourteen full references were systematically identified that met the review's inclusion criteria. Studies indicate that victims of both direct and indirect stalking suffer severe consequences in their lives as a result. Future longitudinal studies, controlling for confounding biases, are necessary for achieving a richer understanding of the impact that stalking can have on victims. Finally, Chapter Six discusses the implications of this thesis and offers recommendations for future research.

▼ Preterm infants are those born before 37 completed weeks of gestation. Worldwide, about one million children die each year due to complications of prematurity and survivors may face lifelong disabilities. Approximately 50% of neonatal deaths and 17% of deaths among children under five are affected by prematurity. Colostrum is the first milk produced by the mother within the early few days after birth. Colostrum is very rich in immunological and growth factors that indicates its primary functions are protective and trophic. Oropharyngeal administration of colostrum (OPC) is a novel route that involves coating the infant's oropharynx with a small amount of colostrum (0.1 to 0.5 ml) during the early neonatal period. Immune and growth factors in colostrum might interact with the oropharyngeal mucosal-associated lymphoid tissues to modulate the infant's immune system and promote intestinal growth, potentially reducing infection and necrotising enterocolitis (NEC), improving survival and health outcomes. Ultimately OPC could provide a potential target to prevent mortality and morbidities of preterm and sick infants. This thesis aimed to investigate whether OPC administration during the early neonatal period prevents deaths, improves health outcomes and promotes the growth of preterm infants. To achieve the aim of this thesis; initially, an online survey targeted neonatal professionals was performed to evaluate the current practice and perception of OPC administration in the UK neonatal units. Oropharyngeal colostrum has been introduced into UK neonatal practice despite a lack of high-quality evidence regarding its efficacy and safety. OPC practice was variable, frequently without written guidelines. A Cochrane systematic review was conducted to synthesis and appraise the currently available randomised controlled trials (RCTs), which evaluated if early OPC given within the first 48 hours has a positive impact in preterm infants (< 37 weeks gestation) compared with control. Six RCTs were eligible for inclusion in this systematic review. Meta-analysis showed that early OPC could shorten the time to reach full enteral feeds but did not reduce the incidence of late-onset infection (LOI), NEC and death nor the length of hospital stay. Available evidence is insufficient due to lack of participants and very low quality to demonstrate the benefits effects of OPC for preterm infants. The third study, a matched case-control study evaluated the effects of OPC administration on the short-term health outcomes in preterm (≤ 32 weeks) infants. Eligible infants who were admitted to the Nottingham neonatal units after the implementation of OPC in the care of preterm infants, and received OPC, compared with those who were admitted before the use of OPC in the units. Preterm infants who received OPC within the first 96 hours of life achieved full enteral feeding (150 ml/Kg/day for consecutive 72 hours) earlier than those infants who did not receive OPC. A higher rate of receiving breast milk at discharge to home was also observed. However,…

▼ Background Ethnic disparities in childhood overweight in the UK, and the cultural and contextual basis of disparities, are not well understood. The aims of this research were to identify patterns in childhood overweight across ethnic groups; explore child and parental perspectives and experiences that may contribute; and consider the implications for service design. Methods A mixed methods approach was utilised as follows: 1) a systematic review of the factors associated with adiposity in children from minority ethnic groups; 2) multilevel analysis of child measurement data for primary school children; 3) qualitative draw, write and tell interviews with an ethnically diverse sample of children aged 9-10 years; and 4) qualitative focus groups with parents from selected ethnic groups. Mixed methods analytical integration was performed using a joint display, following a thread and triangulation. Results Study 1 highlighted the lack of existing evidence to understand the basis of ethnic group disparities in childhood adiposity. Study 2 (n = 56, 409) found age and sex -related patterns of ethnic disparities in childhood overweight and obesity, indicating that children from Black African and Caribbean and Bangladeshi backgrounds had significantly higher odds at age 4-5 years vs White British. The same pattern was found for girls aged 10-11 years, whilst boys from South Asian, Black African, White Other and Mixed ethnic groups had significantly higher odds at this age. Study 3 (n=26) revealed that children viewed health as a choice, however ethnic group-specific experiences were not strongly apparent. Study 4 (n=35) identified universal and ethnic group-specific features of parents' lives influencing weight, emphasising the importance of cultural-contextual interactions upon family health behaviours. Mixed methods analytical integration allowed for a more complete appraisal of methods and understanding of the research issue. Conclusions The findings provide a detailed understanding of the cultural and contextual basis of ethnic disparities in childhood overweight, upon which to direct the planning of public health services.

▼ Coeliac disease (CD) is an autoimmune condition of the gastrointestinal tract. In untreated patients, an inflammatory response to gluten results in destruction of the gut mucosa resulting in villus atrophy. This often presents with overt clinical symptoms but can also be silent in nature. Continual gluten insult can inevitably lead to a range of complications including nutritional problems from poor growth to deficits in bone mineral density (BMD). The CHIC study aimed to create a comprehensive picture of CD in children, taking into account growth and nutritional status, bone health, micronutrient status and further assessing children with the dual diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus and CD. It is well established that early diagnosis of CD and the prompt initiation of gluten free dietary treatment (GFD) reduces the manifestation of complications. Yet in many previous studies the quality of a GFD and children's compliance to it have not been accounted for. This study assessed nutritional status and body composition in paediatric patients with newly diagnosed CD and found that the presentation of CD has changed, with the majority of patients presenting with normal and even over nutrition. Furthermore, the introduction of GFD with good compliance supports normal growth velocities and enables catch up growth in children presenting with short stature. When considering bone health in paediatric patients with CD the results remain inconclusive. Many previous studies have used the widely available DXA to assess bone mineral content, but in paediatric patients this may not accurately determine bone health. This study used peripheral quantitative computed tomography to distinguish changes in bone mineral density and investigate any alterations in bone microarchitecture. Thus, for the first time in paediatric CD patients identifying disruption to the remodelling mechanisms of trabecular bone, which may be particularly sensitive to resorption and mineral loss in patients with active CD. Furthermore, restoration of BMD was evident with good compliance to dietary treatment. Investigations into micronutrient status revealed that newly diagnosed children are vulnerable to micronutrient deficiency, this is likely due to malabsorption in the gut in patients with active CD. Deficiencies in zinc and magnesium were also identified in children treated with a GFD. This may be due to the inadequate micronutrients intakes with consumption levels of riboflavin, vitamin A, vitamin K, calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc lower than expected in treated CD children.
