Fasting serum gastrin concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay for 124 infants and children free of gastrointestinal disease. Values for the entire group ranged from 1.1 to 167.9 pg/ml (mean, 32.3 pg/ml). Mean serum gastrin levels for children who fasted eight or more hours were 22.5 ± 23.9 pg/ml while the mean serum gastrin levels for children who fasted four to eight hours ranged from 42.4 ± 33.9 pg/ml to 59.2 ± 49.6 pg/ml. The mean serum gastrin levels varied inversely with body surface area among children who fasted the same length of time.

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.

Súlyos valvularis aortastenosis miatt csecsemőkorban percutan ballondilatációt követően kialakult billentyűelégtelenség korrigálására Ross-műtét történt. A posztoperatív időben fellépett aortagyök infektív endocarditis miatt az aortagyök pótlására homograft-beültetés vált szükségessé. Tizenkét éves korára a kinőtt aortabillentyű elégtelenné vált, az elmeszesedett aortagyök cseréje Bentall szerint műbillentyűs conduittal, a bal kamra kifolyási pályájának Konno szerinti megnagyobbításával vált lehetővé. Az aortabillentyű- és aortagyök-betegségek komplex sebészi kezelést igényelhetnek, és sokszor már csecsemő- és gyermekkorban is sikeresen elvégezhetők. Ilyen típusú műtéti megoldást először végeztek Magyarországon. Orv. Hetil., 2010,41,1712–1715.
