				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Caring for children with type 1 diabetic can create caregiving pressure for parents. This pressure can lead to high levels of stress, depression, and low self-efficacy in caregivers. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between caregiving burden and self-efficacy in mothers of children with diabetes.Methods: This study is a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study conducted on 167 mothers of children with type 1 diabetes who were referred to the type1diabetes clinic at Taleghani Educational and Medical Center in Gorgan, Northern Iran, Golestan Province in 2023. Data collection was done using a random sampling method proportional to the volume. Demographic characteristics and caregiving burden questionnaires were utilized, along with the Zarit and Berkeley self-efficacy questionnaires. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics version 23. Given the distribution of data, t-tests or Mann-Whitney tests were used to compare caregiving burden and self-efficacy between two groups. In cases of more than two groups, one-way analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis test was employed. The relationship between variables was measured with Spearman&#039;s correlation coefficient, and the significance level was set at 0.05.Results: The findings revealed that the average age of mothers was 38.98±6.38, with mean caregiving burden and self-efficacy sources of 30.01±11.10 and 83.91±8.33, respectively. This suggests that they experienced a mild caregiving burden and high self-efficacy. A moderate inverse correlation was found between caregiving burden and mothers&#039; self-efficacy (r= -0.378, P=0.000). Significant differences were observed in mothers&#039; caregiving based on their employment (P=0.048) and education (P=0.027). Additionally, there was a weak inverse correlation between caregiving burden and child age (P=0.001, r= -0.264) as well as mother&#039;s age (P=0.002, r= -0.177). Furthermore, statistically significant differences were found in mothers&#039; caregiving burden (P&lt;0.001) and self-efficacy (P=0.025) based on ethnicity.Conclusion: The findings of this study revealed that slightly over half of the participants experienced a mild caregiving burden and most mothers had high self-efficacy. There was a moderate inverse correlation between caregiving burden and self-efficacy among mothers of children with diabetes. Therefore, it is necessary to pay special attention to these variables in mothers of children with type1diabetes so that they can effectively care for their children.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Non-thyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS) is defined as a condition that occurs during acute illness. In this study, we evaluated thyroid function tests in pediatric patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection who were admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and compared them with children admitted to the PICU due to other disordersMaterials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study where all patients between the ages of 1 month and 16 years admitted to the COVID-19 referral Hospital PICUs were evaluated over a 6 month period. A checklist was used to gather patient information. Thyroid hormones evaluated included; measurements of free T3, T3, T4 and TSH on the first day of admission Data was analyzed using the SPSS 21 statistical package.Results: A total of 73 patients were evaluated during the 6 month study period. 40 (54.8%) of them were male and 53(45.2%) were female. The mean age of the study population was 5.9±4.3 years.13 patients were admitted due to SARS-Cov-19 infection.Thyroid function consistent with Non thyroidal illness syndrome was observed in 25(34.2%) of these patients. The level of T3 and FT3 in patients with COVID-19 were significantly lower than in patients without COVID-19 infection (P&lt;0.05). Body temperature in patients with abnormal thyroid tests was significantly higher than in patients with normal thyroid tests (P=0.040).Conclusion: We found that one-third of children admitted to the PICU had NTIS. We suggest that FT3 can be a marker of COVID-19 patient severity, as its lower levels were observed in pediatric patients admitted to the PICU.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Chickenpox is a common viral illness in children, typically mild, but it can lead to severe complications and even death. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and related social, healthcare, and environmental changes may have altered disease patterns and outcomes.Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study examined hospitalization trends and complications in 390 children under 18 years admitted with chickenpox between 2017 and 2024 (1396–1403). Demographics, clinical complications, treatment interventions, and discharge outcomes were extracted from the Hospital Information System (HIS) and analyzed using SPSS v26.Results: Before the pandemic, hospitalizations and complications were infrequent, reflecting generally mild disease. After the pandemic, both the number of hospitalized children and the severity of complications increased markedly, with nearly half of patients in 2023 (1402) experiencing significant complications. Common complications included cellulitis (21%), pneumonia (14%), and arthritis (3.3%). Approximately 15% required intensive care, with an average intensive care unit (ICU) stay of 3.96 days, and several children developed rare but serious conditions such as toxic shock syndrome. Notably, 10% had underlying immunodeficiency, increasing their vulnerability.Conclusion: These findings highlight a concerning post-pandemic shift, emphasizing the human cost of delayed vaccination, healthcare access challenges, and environmental and viral factors. Early identification of high-risk children, vigilant clinical monitoring, and strengthened preventive measures are essential to reduce morbidity and mortality, safeguarding the well-being of vulnerable pediatric populations.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Children&#039;s height growth is a crucial indicator of health, influenced by parents&#039; beliefs and practices regarding nutrition, physical activity, and sleep. This research aimed to explore parental views on height growth beliefs in families to identify misunderstandings for targeted health education.Methods: This cross-sectional observational study took place from March to August 2024 at a pediatric outpatient clinic in Mashhad, Iran, involving 200 parents (100 fathers and 100 mothers) of children aged 1 month to 15 years. Data were gathered using a 10-item checklist evaluating beliefs about sports, sedentary activities, sleep, genetics, and nutrition. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics and chi-square tests to explore the relationship between beliefs and demographic characteristics, such as age and education level.Results: The majority of parents showed a correct understanding of the benefits of sleep, team sports, and dairy for height growth. However, misconceptions were common, such as associating certain sedentary activities and gymnastics with negative effects on height. Over half believed excess red meat harms growth, and many dismissed the importance of afternoon naps. Fathers’ academic education was linked to beliefs about meat, but no significant links were found for mothers’ education or age.Conclusions: Significant gaps exist between evidence-based knowledge and the beliefs of even highly educated Iranian parents. While they value sleep and team sports, misconceptions persist about specific physical activities, red meat consumption, and age-appropriate rest. These findings highlight the need for targeted, culturally sensitive educational interventions to correct misconceptions and promote optimal child growth.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Uncooperative behavior in pediatric dentistry remains a significant barrier to effective care. While the correlation between maternal and child anxiety is established, the biological mechanisms moderating this relationship specifically the interaction between attachment styles and genetic susceptibility remain unexplored. This study investigated the combined predictive power of mother-child attachment and polymorphisms in the Oxytocin Receptor (OXTR) and Serotonin Transporter (SLC6A4) genes on children’s behavior during dental treatment.Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted with 200 mother-child dyads (children aged 4–8 years). Maternal attachment was assessed using the Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) questionnaire. Child cooperation was rated during restorative procedures using the Frankl Behavior Rating Scale. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples. Genotyping for the OXTR rs53576 polymorphism was performed using the Amplification Refractory Mutation System (ARMS-PCR), and the 5-HTTLPR region was amplified via standard PCR.Results: Secure maternal attachment was significantly associated with positive child cooperation (p&lt;0.001). Genetically, children carrying the Short (S) allele of 5-HTTLPR exhibited lower cooperation scores (p=0.04). A hierarchical regression model revealed a significant Gene-Environment interaction (β=−0.38, p&lt;0.01), indicating that children with the &#039;risk&#039; genotype (S-carriers) were significantly more vulnerable to the effects of insecure maternal attachment than children with the protective genotype (L/L).Conclusion: The child&#039;s behavioral phenotype in the dental operatory is shaped by a complex interplay of maternal emotional availability and the child&#039;s genetic stress sensitivity. These findings support a move toward personalized behavioral management strategies based on psychosocial and biological risk profiling.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background: Caustic ingestions are a significant clinical issue worldwide, especially in children, leading to accidental esophageal injury. One of the most serious and delayed complications after corrosive ingestions is the formation of esophageal strictures. Management often involves therapeutic endoscopy and esophageal balloon dilation. Acute gastric dilation is a very uncommon but potentially lethal condition. Due to its rare incidence its etiology and clinical management have remained understudied.Case Presentation: Here, we present a case of acute gastric dilation following balloon endoscopy in a 15-year-old girl who was admitted to our emergency department two weeks after ingesting of a household cleaning agent.Conclusion: In this case, we highlight the importance of early recognition and prompt treatment of acute gastric dilation. Early initiation of abdominal decompression is vital to prevent fatal outcomes.]]></abstract>
