The author reported clinical characteristic features and risk factors for acute intestinal infections in 225 children (140 boys and 85 girls, mean age 1.5 years old). 90 (40%) patients aged up to 12 months, 101 (44.9%) were from 1 to 2 years old, and 34 (15.1%) were more than 2 years old. Most children were hospitalized in the first week of illness and had moderate severe course of disease. Severe forms of illness reliably more often were noted in children being on artificial feeding. Toxicdystrophic condition, severe forms and perinatal encephalopathy were prevailed in boys. Factorial analysis revealed 20 most significant factors with factorization fullness 70.8%. The most significant factors were F1( factor of hyperthermia duration) with 8.5% effect, F2 (factor of pain syndrome) 5.8%, F3 (factor of normal enzymatic activity of colon bacillus) 4.9%, F4 (etiological factor) 4.6%, as well as F5( factor of opportunistic flora of the intestine) 4.4%, respectively., Mukarram Shadjalilova, and Literatura
Zlomeniny v dětském věku se liší od zlomenin dospělých. Kost je u dětí pružná, roste do délky, má velkou remodelační schopnost. U dětí se vyskytuje například suprakondylická fraktura, která se v dospělosti nevyskytuje. Vedle skiagramu, CT, MR vyšetření je možné i UZ vyšetření poranění, zejména u neosifikovaného skeletu. Zlomeniny lze u dětí rozdělit do několika typů: porodní traumata, fraktury batolat, epifyzeolýzy, inkompletní fraktury, suprakondylické zlomeniny., Fractures in children differ from fractures in adults. The bones are more flexible in children, grow in lenght, has good remodeling ability. Some fractures are typical in childhood, do not occur in adults (supracondylar fracture), Besides X-rays, CT, MRI, the ultrasound examination of the trauma is also possible, especially in nonossified skeleton. Fractures in children can be divided into some types: birth (delivery) trauma, toddlers fractures, epiphyseolysis, incomplete fractures, stress fractures, supracondylar fractures., Jarmila Skotáková, Vladimír Bartl, Marcela Charvátová, Zdeňka Ráčilová, Lucie Dohnalová, and Literatura

Aim: The principal aim was to establish reference paediatric data for the serum homocysteine levels in Czech children and adolescents. Methods and Results: 144 children either healthy or not sufferig from acute or chronic inflammation, autoimmune disorders including rheumatic diseases, inflammatory musculoskeletal disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, epilepsy, chronic renal failure, aged 0–19.9 years (0–6.9 years, n = 40; 7–10.9 y, n = 28; 11–15.9 y, n = 45; 16–19.9 y, n = 31) had their blood samples collected and the serum homocysteine level (S-homocysteine) was evaluated by chemiluminescence. A significant age dependence of the S-homocysteine levels was observed (R = 0.35, p < 0.01); with highest values of upper reference range in the 11–15.9 and 16–19.9 years’ group, respectively. Conclusion: The establishment of S-homocysteine reference Czech pediatric values is a potentially useful tool for proper evaluation of elevated homocysteine levels and corresponding risks in childhood., Vladimír Němec, Eva Bočkayová, Štěpán Kutílek, and Literatura 30
