Knowledge of food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome among general pediatricians.
In this study, investigators examined knowledge of food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome among general pediatricians. They created a 32-question survey, collecting information regarding participants’ experience with FPIES and knowledge of FPIES diagnosis and management. Investigators found that many pediatricians had a basic but incomplete understanding of FPIES diagnosis and initial management.

Effectiveness of fundoplication or gastrojejunal feeding in children with neurologic impairment.
Gastroesophageal reflux (GER), aspiration, and secondary complications lead to morbidity and mortality in children with neurologic impairment (NI), dysphagia, and gastrostomy feeding. Fundoplication and gastrojejunal (GJ) feeding can reduce risk. A comparison of GJ to fundoplication using first-year postprocedure reflux-related hospitalization (RRH) rates found that in children with NI, GER, and dysphagia,:fundoplication and GJ feeding have similar RRH outcomes.

Seasonality and pediatric inflammatory bowel disease.
The researchers sought to determine whether disease activity in pediatric-onset inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with a seasonal pattern. Studying 1325 patients with Crohn disease and 587 patients with ulcerative colitis, their findings do not support any strong associations between season of the year and disease activity in pediatric IBD.
