Summary: This study is a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials on the use of probiotics and symbiotics in treating infantile colic. The results show that probiotics can reduce the crying time of infants, with a more significant effect on exclusively breastfed infants, but the evidence of effectiveness in formula-fed and caesarean-born infants is limited.

Summary: This study reviewed 7 cases of infants with IPH1 who reached end-stage renal failure within the first year of life. These patients underwent emergency dialysis and liver-kidney transplantation. Despite encouraging survival rates, management of IPH1 remains extremely challenging. Future prospects look brighter with the development of new RNA-interference drugs.

Summary: The systematic review found that oral administration of probiotics to breastfed infants with colic can reduce crying time by at least 50%, while further research is needed to study the efficacy of probiotics in reducing colic symptoms in formula-fed infants. There is currently no evidence to support or refute the efficacy of probiotics in preventing infantile colic.

Summary: This study suggests that measuring fecal calprotectin can help pediatricians diagnose infantile colic. Elevated fecal calprotectin levels were found in colicky babies, and it was also found to be associated with the type of delivery.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, telemedicine provided by primary care practices became widely accessible for children. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with the use of primary care telemedicine among children with a usual source of care. Factors such as having a chronic medical condition, living in a metropolitan area, internet connectivity concerns, and higher health literacy were found to be associated with the use of primary care telemedicine.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between infantile colic, migraine, and biorhythm regulation, and found that infants with colic showed signs of circadian rhythm disturbance compared to the control group. The study also revealed that infantile colic is a biorhythm disorder and suggested a new perspective for treatment.

Summary: This study reviewed the treatment experience for infantile fibrosarcoma (IFS) and found that most patients achieved complete remission after initial treatment, with myelosuppression being the main short-term adverse effect. After a median follow-up of 3.5 years, 9 patients were alive and 2 patients died, with a 3-year overall survival rate of 93.5%.

Summary: This article summarizes various aspects of the clinical management of infantile esotropia, including the most effective type of intervention and the optimal timing of intervention. Through the analysis of two studies, the authors found that surgical treatment may increase the incidence of treatment success, while there was no evidence of an important difference between bilateral and unilateral surgeries. However, due to insufficient evidence, the controversies regarding the type of surgery, non-surgical intervention, or age of intervention remain unresolved. Therefore, there is a need for high-quality trials to improve the evidence base for the management of infantile esotropia.

Summary: Our study identifies an unmet demand for POCUS training among general pediatricians and trainees. Despite the majority of respondents not being POCUS users, our results can guide future research on the role of POCUS in general pediatrics and the development of pediatric curricula.

Summary: The study found that general developmental and autism-specific screenings are not consistently administered in primary care practices. Provider self-efficacy in autism identification and screening, as well as previous autism training, were associated with increased autism screening rates. This suggests a need for increased training and dissemination of information on screening implementation for practicing PCPs.
