Evidence on serological responses to vaccination in children exposed to ustekinumab (UST) or vedolizumab (VDZ) in utero is lacking. This multicentre prospective study aimed to assess the impact of prenatal exposure to UST or VDZ due to maternal inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on serological responses to vaccination and other immunological parameters in exposed children. Children aged ≥ 1 year who were exposed in utero to UST or VDZ and completed at least 1-year of mandatory vaccination were included. We assessed the serological response to vaccination (non-live: tetanus, diphtheria, and Haemophilus influenzae B; live: mumps, rubella, and measles), whole blood count, and immunoglobulin levels. The control group comprised unexposed children born to mothers without IBD. A total of 23 children (median age, 25 months) exposed to UST (n = 13) or VDZ (n = 10) and 10 controls (median age, 37 months) were included. The serological response to vaccination was comparable between the UST and VDZ groups and controls, with an adequate serological response rate of ≥ 80%. Only children exposed to UST showed a slightly reduced serological response to mumps (67% vs. 86% in controls), whereas all children exposed to VDZ showed an adequate response. The majority of the exposed children had normal levels of individual immunoglobulin classes, similar to the controls. No severe pathology was observed in any of the children.Conclusion: Despite the limited sample size, our findings suggest that in utero exposure to VDZ or UST does not significantly impair the vaccine response or broader immunological parameters in exposed children.

The Cow's Milk-related Symptom Score (CoMiSS™) is a scoring system that reflects the appearance and intensity of symptoms possibly related to consumption of cow's milk. The original tool was recently updated by changing the cut-off, and the stool scale and by adding angioedema. There is no data available regarding the natural evolution of CoMiSS in infants with no cow's milk allergy (no-CMA) or a comparison between original and updated CoMiSS values. We determined the original and the updated CoMiSS in infants not diagnosed with cow's milk allergy. The evolution of CoMiSS during the first year of life was assessed repetitively during predefined check-ups at 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 months. The original and updated scores were compared with the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. We also tested the impact of feeding type, age, gender, and order in the family on the CoMiSS. One hundred and twenty-two infants were included. CoMiSS values during the first year of life showed an inverse relation to age. The difference in CoMiSS between the original and updated versions was significant at 6,8,10, and 12 months (p < 0.001), related to the switch from the Bristol Stool Form Scale to the Brussels Infants and Toddlers Stool Scale (BITSS). The difference between both versions of CoMiSS was not significantly different in infants < 6 months (p = 0.999 at 1.5 and 4 months, and p = 0.586 at 3 months, respectively).Conclusion: CoMiSS decreases with age during the first year of life. While there is no difference between the two CoMiSS versions in healthy infants under 6 months of age, the CoMiSS value in the updated version is lower than the original 1 in infants aged 6 to 12 months. What is known? • The Cow's Milk-related Symptom Score (CoMiSS) is a validated awareness tool for cow's milk allergy (CMA). • A CoMiSS of ≥ 10 indicates a risk for cow's milk allergy. What is new? • The natural evolution of CoMiSS in infants not diagnosed with CMA (no-CMA) shows an inverse relation to age. • There is no difference between the original and the updated CoMiSS versions in no-CMA-infants under six months of age, but the updated CoMiSS is lower in infants 6-12 months than the original one.

Ustekinumab is an effective therapy for adult Crohn's disease (CD), but data in paediatric CD patients are scarce. The aim of the study was to describe the real-life effectiveness and safety of ustekinumab in paediatric CD. This is a multicentre review of children with Crohn's disease treated with ustekinumab. The aim of our study was to describe the effectiveness and safety of ustekinumab in paediatric real-life practice. This is a study of the Paediatric IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) Porto group of ESPGHAN. Corticosteroid (CS)- and exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN)-free remission, defined as weighted Paediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (wPCDAI) < 12.5, and physician global assessment (PGA) were determined at weeks 12 and 52. A total of 101 children were included at a median age of 15.4 years (IQR 12.7-17.2) with a median follow-up of 7.4 months (IQR 5.6-11.8). Ninety-nine percent had received prior anti-TNF, 63% ≥ 2 anti-TNFα therapies and 22% vedolizumab. Baseline median wPCDAI was 39 (IQR 25-57.5) (71 (70%) patients with moderate-severe activity). Weeks 12 and 52 CS- and EEN-free remission were both 40.5%. Clinical response at week 6, iv induction route and older age at onset of ustekinumab treatment were predictive factors associated with clinical remission at week 12. Seven minor adverse events probably related to ustekinumab were reported. One patient died from an unrelated cause. Conclusion: Our results suggest that ustekinumab is effective and safe in children with chronically active or refractory CD. What is Known: • Ustekinumab is an effective therapy for adult moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD). • Off-label use of ustekinumab in children is increasing especially in anti-TNF refractory CD. What is New: • Is the largest cohort of real-world use of ustekinumab in paediatric CD to date. • Clinical response at week 6, iv induction and older age at onset of ustekinumab were predictive factors associated with clinical response at week 12.

PURPOSE: Gastric residual measurement is routinely performed in premature infants prior to feeding despite a lack of evidence of benefit. We aimed to evaluate if the exclusion of routine gastric residual measurement and evaluation has an impact on the time taken to achieve full enteral feeding in preterm neonates. METHODS: International multi-centre randomised controlled trial. Clinically stable, appropriate for gestational age infants between 26+0 and 30+6 weeks of gestation and less than 1.5 kg birth weight were eligible. Infants were randomised to the intervention arm (no monitoring of gastric aspirates) or control arm (routine care). Primary outcome was the achievement of enteral feeds of 100 ml/kg/day by day 5 of life. RESULTS: Ninety-five infants were recruited with 88 included in an intention-to-treat analysis, 45 in the intervention arm and 43 in the control arm. There was no imbalance in baseline characteristics. Thirty-three (73.3%) infants in the intervention group and 32 infants (74.4%) in the control group reached full feeds by day 5 of life (p = 0.91) with no difference in median time to full feeds. There were no statistically significant differences in survival or the major morbidities of prematurity. CONCLUSION: There was no difference in time to attainment of enteral feeds of 100 ml/kg/day in premature infants when gastric residuals were not monitored. In the absence of a clinical benefit to routine monitoring, it may be appropriate to discontinue this practice and only monitor residuals when clinical concern of feeding intolerance or gastrointestinal pathology arises in this group of patients. TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT03111329- https://clinicaltrials.gov/ . Registered 06/04/2017. WHAT IS KNOWN: • Previous randomized trials have shown little benefit to the performance of routine assessment of gastric residuals in preterm infants. Despite this, they continue to be performed due to concerns from observational data regarding development of NEC. Meta-analysis to date has failed to answer the question regarding NEC. WHAT IS NEW: • In very low birth weight infants who are fed using modern feeding practice of faster feed advancement, to minimize use of central access and parenteral nutrition, exclusion of routine checks of gastric residuals did not increase the proportion of infants reaching full enteral feeds by day 5. No harm was seen when residual checks were not performed. • In the absence of a clinical benefit to the routine performance of gastric residuals in very low birth weight infants, it may be appropriate to discontinue their use and instead check residuals when clinical concern of pathology arises.

UNLABELLED: We would like to provide an updated comprehensive perspective and identify the components linked to chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) without specific triggers in autoimmune atrophic gastritis (AAG). AAG is an organ-specific autoimmune disease that affects the corpus-fundus gastric mucosa. Although we lack a unified explanation of the underlying pathways, when considering all paediatric patients reported in the literature, alterations result in gastric neuroendocrine enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell proliferation and paracrine release of histamine. Several mechanisms have been proposed for the pathogenesis of CSU, with much evidence pointing towards AAG and ECL cell responses, which may be implicated as potential factors contributing to CSU. The excessive production/release of histamine into the bloodstream could cause or trigger exacerbations of CSU in AAG, independent of Helicobacter pylori; thus, the release of histamine from ECL cells may be the primary modulator. CONCLUSION: Considering the understanding of these interactions, recognising the respective roles of AAG in the pathogenesis of CSU may strongly impact the diagnostic workup and management of unexplained/refractory CSU and may inform future research and interventions in the paediatric population. WHAT IS KNOWN: • Autoimmune atrophic gastritis is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease characterised by the destruction of the oxyntic mucosa in the gastric body and fundus, mucosal atrophy, and metaplastic changes. • Autoimmune atrophic gastritis in paediatric patients is important because of the poor outcome and risk of malignancy and possibly underestimated entities primarily reported in single-case reports. WHAT IS NEW: • Upper gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders, independent of H. pylori, have been implicated as potential inducing factors in the development of chronic spontaneous urticaria. • If a paediatric patient presents with symptoms such as anaemia, reduced vitamin B12 levels, recurrent urticaria with no other detectable aetiology, positive anti-parietal cell antibodies, and elevated gastrin levels, autoimmune atrophic gastritis should be considered a possible cause of chronic urticaria.

The Cow's Milk-related Symptom Score (CoMiSS) is an awareness tool for evaluating cow's milk-related symptoms. Previous studies have focused on providing CoMiSS values for healthy and symptomatic infants aged 0-6 months. However, there is a notable gap in the literature concerning CoMiSS values for infants older than 6 months. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine CoMiSS values in presumed healthy infants who have completed 6 months and are up to 12 months old, hereafter referred to as 6 to 12 months old. Physicians from six European countries prospectively determined CoMiSS values in infants attending well-child clinics. Exclusion criteria included preterm delivery, acute or chronic disease, and the consumption of a therapeutic formula, dietary supplements (except vitamins), or medication. The following information was collected: gestational age, gender, age, type of feed (breast milk or infant formula), and complementary feeding. Descriptive statistics were summarized with mean and standard deviation for normally distributed continuous variables, median and IQR for non-normally distributed variables, and differences in CoMiSS values were analyzed with appropriate tests. Data from 609 infants were obtained. The overall median (Q1-Q3) CoMiSS values were 3 (1-5). Significant differences were found across age groups (p < 0.001), but not across groups based on gender (p = 0.551) or feeding type (p = 0.880). Conclusions: This study provided CoMiSS values in presumed healthy infants aged 6-12 months. Additional studies should be conducted to establish the use of CoMiSS to assess cow's milk-related symptoms in infants 6 months and older. What is Known: • The Cow's Milk-related Symptom Score (CoMiSS) is an awareness tool for evaluating symptoms related to cow's milk. • CoMiSS values for presumed healthy infants aged 0-6 months infants are already available. What is New: • CoMiSS values in European infants aged 6-12 months are provided. • These CoMiSS values differed across various age groups but not across groups based on gender or feeding type.

The worldwide outbreak of the novel 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has led to recognition of a new immunopathological condition: paediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome (PIMS-TS). The Czech Republic (CZ) suffered from one of the highest incidences of individuals who tested positive during pandemic waves. The aim of this study was to analyse epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory characteristics of all cases of paediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome (PIMS-TS) in the Czech Republic (CZ) and their predictors of severe course. We performed a retrospective-prospective nationwide observational study based on patients hospitalised with PIMS-TS in CZ between 1 November 2020 and 31 May 2021. The anonymised data of patients were abstracted from medical record review. Using the inclusion criteria according to World Health Organization definition, 207 patients with PIMS-TS were enrolled in this study. The incidence of PIMS-TS out of all SARS-CoV-2-positive children was 0.9:1,000. The estimated delay between the occurrence of PIMS-TS and the COVID-19 pandemic wave was 3 weeks. The significant initial predictors of myocardial dysfunction included mainly cardiovascular signs (hypotension, oedema, oliguria/anuria, and prolonged capillary refill). During follow-up, most patients (98.8%) had normal cardiac function, with no residual findings. No fatal cases were reported.Conclusions: A 3-week interval in combination with incidence of COVID-19 could help increase pre-test probability of PIMS-TS during pandemic waves in the suspected cases. Although the parameters of the models do not allow one to completely divide patients into high and low risk groups, knowing the most important predictors surely could help clinical management.

Cystic kidney diseases such as autosomal recessive or dominant polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD and ADPKD) are associated with high prevalence of arterial hypertension. On the contrary, studies on hypertension in children with renal cysts and diabetes (RCAD) syndrome caused by abnormalities in the HNF1B gene are rare. Therefore, the primary aim of our study was to investigate the prevalence of high blood pressure in children with RCAD syndrome due to HNF1B gene abnormalities and secondary to search for possible risk factors for development of high blood pressure. Data on all children with genetically proven RCAD syndrome from three pediatric nephrology tertiary centers were retrospectively reviewed (office blood pressure (BP), ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), creatinine clearance, renal ultrasound, echocardiography, albuminuria/proteinuria). High blood pressure was defined as BP ≥ 95th percentile of the current ESH 2016 guidelines and/or by the use of antihypertensive drugs. Thirty-two children with RCAD syndrome were investigated. Three children received ACE inhibitors for hypertension and/or proteinuria. High blood pressure was diagnosed using office BP in 22% of the children (n = 7). In the 7 performed ABPM, 1 child (14%) was diagnosed with hypertension and one child with white-coat hypertension. Creatinine clearance, proteinuria, albuminuria, body mass index, enlargement, or hypodysplasia of the kidneys and prevalence of HNF1B-gene deletion or mutation were not significantly different between hypertensive and normotensive children.Conclusion: High blood pressure is present in 22% of children with RCAD syndrome. What is Known: • Arterial hypertension is a common complication in children with polycystic kidney diseases. What is New: • High office blood pressure is present in 22% and ambulatory hypertension in 14% of children with renal cyst and diabetes (RCAD) syndrome.

Studies showing a substantial frequency of dermatologic complications in paediatric Crohn's disease (CD) patients on anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy preferentially include patients treated with infliximab. We aimed to identify risk factors for the cumulative incidence of skin complications in a paediatric cohort receiving either adalimumab or infliximab and found an association between current skin complications and the patient's current clinical condition. This study retrospectively evaluated dermatologic complications in an inception cohort of 100 paediatric CD patients receiving the first anti-TNF (Motol PIBD cohort). Patient data were collected every 3 months. The lesions were classified as psoriatic, atopic dermatitis, or others. We used Cox regression to evaluate the association between predefined variables and the time to complication and a generalised linear mixed model to assess the association between the patient's current condition and the occurrence of complications. Among the 89 included children, 35 (39%) presented with dermatologic lesions. The only predictor associated with any complication was infliximab (versus adalimumab) therapy (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.07; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03-4.17; p = 0.04). Infliximab therapy (HR: 5.5; 95%CI: 1.59-19.06; p = 0.01) and a family history of atopy (HR: 3.4; 95%CI 1.35-8.57, p = 0.002) were associated with early manifestation of atopic dermatitis. Lower C-reactive protein levels (odds ratio [OR], 0.947; 95% CI, - 0.898 to 0.998; p = 0.046) and infliximab (versus adalimumab) were associated with the occurrence of any dermatologic complications (OR, 5.93; 95% CI, 1.59-22.07; p = 0.008).Conclusion: The frequency of skin complications seems high in paediatric CD patients treated with anti-TNF and is even higher in those treated with infliximab. What is Known: •The dermatologic complications occur during treatment with anti-tumour necrosis factor. •The frequency of skin complications in paediatric patients with Crohn's disease is high. What is New: •Infliximab (vs. adalimumab) was identified as a strong risk factor for the cumulative incidence of skin complications. •Lower C-reactive protein levels were associated with the current occurrence of dermatologic complications.
