Dr. A. Ertugrul has recently drawn attention in this journal to a new electrocardiographic observation in infants and children with hypothyroidism. This new electrocardiographic feature, emphasized by Dr. Ertugrul is the disappearance of the S-T segment and the dome-shape of the T waves. Accordingly, the relationship of these observed changes with the serum calcium level must be investigated; actually in hypercalcemia the electrocardiogram commonly reveals the absence of the S-T segment, dome-shaped T waves with shortening of the Q-T interval.

The article on "Iron Intake, Hemoglobin, and Physical Growth" (Pediatrics, 30:518, 1962) merits special comment. Although this represents years of careful observation of healthy infants and children, the hematologic data offered on them are meager. They do not clearly support the authors' contention that iron intake does not appear to be directly reflected in hemoglobin levels at 2 years of age. At 1 year this relationship certainly does not hold true from an analysis of their own data. As a matter of fact, 1 year of age is a more critical time to evaluate the relationship of iron to hemoglobin, because during the first year, growth is more rapid and dietary inadequacies are more likely to occur.

This chapter explores the question of whether infants and children produce prototypic emotional facial expressions in emotion-eliciting situations. Investigations of both infants and children are described. These include a natural observation study of a single infant during routine caregiving activities, a systematic experiment in which infants were presented with elicitors of fear and anger, a seminaturalistic experiment during which mothers and children discuss a topic of disagreement, and a study of children’s responses to a fear stimulus presented in the context of an Internet prank. Together these studies show that prototypic expressions are sometimes produced when it is unlikely that the corresponding emotion is experienced and often are not produced when the corresponding emotional experience seems likely. Overall findings suggest that the relationship between emotion and facial expression is more complex than portrayed within contemporary discrete emotion theories.

The effectiveness of amplification for infants and children can be mediated by how much the child uses the device. Existing research suggests that establishing hearing aid use can be challenging. A wide range of factors can influence hearing aid use in children, including the child's age, degree of hearing loss, and socioeconomic status. Audiological interventions, including using validated prescriptive approaches and verification, performing on-going training and orientation, and communicating with caregivers about hearing aid use can also increase hearing aid use by infants and children. Case examples are used to highlight the factors that influence hearing aid use. Potential management strategies and future research needs are also discussed.
