Introduction: Rapid-onset obesity concurrently with hypoventilation, hypothalamic, autonomic dysregulation (ROHHAD) is an uncommon disease that presents with multiorgan disorders during early childhood, with fewer than 100 cases reported around the world. We aim to present a case of ROHHAD syndrome admitting with rare neurologic symptoms. We also present our treatment regimen. Case Presentation: An 8-year-old boy was admitted to our department with ataxia and gait disturbance that led us to the final diagnosis after a thorough investigation. He had multiple admissions and was treated for other diagnoses. His first symptoms started from age 5 with obstructive apnea. He underwent an adenectomy surgery at that time, but the symptoms continued. A year after the surgery, he was admitted again due to his somnolence but was diagnosed only with hypothyroidism and anemia. At the age of 7 years and 8 months, he was admitted to our department with ataxia and abnormal gait from the past year with instability and numerous falls. He also had shown hyperphagia that had been resulted in 10 kilograms of weight gain in six months. He was experiencing gradual behavioral symptoms, including episodes of self and hetero aggression and impulsivity. His other symptoms included fatigue, somnolence, gastrointestinal dysmotility, hyperhidrosis, central hypothyroidism, polyuria, precocious puberty, and rapid obesity. His laboratory investigation revealed hyperprolactinemia. Conclusions: Our case indicates that ROHHAD is a complex disease with divergent signs and symptoms that needs to be kept in mind for diagnosis and should be treated with a high level of collaboration of various medical specialties. Since late diagnosis of this syndrome leads to a magnificent increase in morbidity and mortality rates, it is vital to pay extreme attention to this syndrome. The diagnosis should be considered even more in children over two years old with rapid-onset obesity, which is accompanied by other symptoms. Here, our patient's complaint was ataxia that revealed the underlying cause after investigation.

Background: Syphilis is one of the most important sexually transmitted infections (STI) and a public health problem, but the literature describing the true burden of syphilis is limited. In Iran, there are no accurate results on the prevalence of syphilis. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of syphilis in Iran. Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies published on the prevalence of Syphilis in Iran. We systematically reviewed the literature to identify eligible studies as of Sep 13, 2020, in international and national databases. The results are presented in the form of forest plots and tables. Pooled prevalence and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using Der Simonian and Laird method. Perform subgroup analysis through population, gender, city, and diagnostic tests to assess the source of heterogeneity. Results: We reviewed 1,229 papers and reports, and extracted data from 15 eligible records. The prevalence of combined syphilis in Iran is 0.1% (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.1-0.1%). The prevalence of syphilis was 0.4% in men (95% confidence interval [95% CI] -0.3, 1%) and 0.6% in women (95% confidence interval [95% CI] (0.1, 1%)). The cumulative meta-analysis showed a decline in the prevalence of syphilis between the years 1999 and 2015. Conclusion: The prevalence of syphilis in Iran is low. In the past few decades, the prevalence of syphilis across the country has declined. Syphilis infection is a small burden that needs to be revised in the implementation of high-cost screening programs.
