Background : Neonatal Respiratory Disease Syndrome (NRDS) still become the most cause of neonatal’s mortality and morbidity especially in premature infants. Antenatal betamethasone has positive effect on preventing NRDS. Objectives : We sought to perform a systematic review of the use of bethametasone in women at risk of preterm delivery associated with the incidence of NRDS articles over the past fifty years. Methods: A systematic review was performed on PubMed and Scopus search term “Pediatrics” and “Pregnancy”. Results: Four articles identified between 2016 and 2019 specifically addressed for the use of betamethasone in women at risk of preterm delivery associated with the incidence of NRDS. A total 1800 patients were included in these four studies. The success rate range from 87,4% to 100%. Conclusion: Overall, the use of betamethasone in women at risk of preterm delivery decrease the incidence of respiratory distress syndrome in newborn significantly.
Background : Ocular injuries are the most common cause of acquired monocular blindness in children. Eye injuries in childhood are largely preventable but unfortunately remain common. Objectives : We sought to perform a systematics review of demography ocular trauma in children over the past fifth years. Methods: A systematic review was performed on PubMed and Scopus search term “Pediatrics” “Trauma” and “Ocular”. Results: Four articles identified between 2017 and 2021 specifically addressed ocular trauma in pediatrics. A total of 1039 patients were included in these four studies. The incidence of close globe injury is higher than open globe injury, two journals claim that the most incidence of ocular trauma occurs in the home, the two others claim that outside/street is the most commonplace, the incidence in the male group is higher than female and incidence ocular trauma mostly occur in 2-14 years old age group. Conclusion: Overall, the average close globe injury incidence is 65,8% and the average of open globe injury is 22,4%. The most common injury that occurs in pediatric trauma is close globe injury.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
