BackgroundNumerous studies reported connection between papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and thyroid autoantibody in adults, but few of them have investigated whether there is a similar link in children and adolescents. The purpose of this research was to explore the relationship between clinicopathological features, prognosis and preoperative thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) as well as thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) status in children and adolescents with PTC.MethodsThis study retrospectively reviewed 179 patients of PTC who underwent a thyroidectomy from January 2000 to June 2021 at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital. We compared preoperative TgAb and TPOAb status with the clinicopathological features and prognosis of children and adolescents with PTC in different age groups.ResultsPatients with positive preoperative TPOAb and TgAb had lower recurrence rate in the younger group (P = 0.006, 0.047, respectively). Patients with positive TPOAb preoperatively had normal level of preoperative Tg and less cervical LNM than patients with negative TPOAb in children and adolescents (P < 0.05). Positive TPOAb preoperatively of PTC patients had a longer median DFS (113.4 months) than negative TPOAb (64.9 months) (P = 0.009, log-rank). Univariate analyses showed age, maximal tumor size, T stage, multifocality, lateral LNM and N staging were predictors for cancer recurrence in children and adolescents (P<0.05). Cox regression analysis found younger age (HR 0.224, P < 0.001), lateral LNM (HR 0.137, P = 0.010), N stage (HR 30.356, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for recurrence.ConclusionsOur study found that presence of preoperative TPOAb and TgAb could serve as novel prognostic factors for predicting recurrence of PTC in children.

Background: Suicidal Behaviors and Thoughts are a relevant public health issue that includes suicidal ideation, non-suicidal self-harm, attempted suicide, and failed suicides. Since there is a progression of suicidal behaviors, whereby suicide is more likely to be completed if there have already been previous behaviors or attempts to harm oneself, WHO has highlighted the need to detect early predictors of such suicidal behaviors, which can help identify individuals at risk, plan prevention strategies and implement specific therapeutic interventions, particularly in young people, thus reducing the number of deaths. This retrospective observational study aimed to identify early predictors of suicidal risk in 237 inpatients admitted for Suicidal Behaviors and Thoughts at Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Emergency Unit of the Meyer Children's Hospital, Florence, Italy. Methods: The study was subdivided into three phases: data collection, statistical analysis, and neural network. For each patient, we collected epidemiological and psychopathological data. We stratified the inpatients into two groups: “suicidal volition patients” and “suicidal motivation patients.” Results: The hospitalization rate for suicidal behaviors and thoughts showed a growing trend from 2016 to 2020 (27.69 to 45.28%). Under 12 years of age, diagnosis of disruptive, impulse-control and conduct disorder, previous specialist care, history of attempted suicide, and intoxication as methods of suicide were statistically correlated to an increased risk of suicidal behaviors. Artificial intelligence, with an accuracy of 86.7%, confirmed these risk factors. Limitations: The most important limitation of the study is its retrospective nature. Conclusions: Our study identifies new early predictors of suicidal risk: age less than 12, diagnosis of disruptive, impulse-control and conduct disorder. In addition, suicidal volition behavior emerges as an important and underestimated risk factor. The use of artificial intelligence methods could be supporting the clinician in assessing suicidal risk.

“…Age and gender are thought to play an important role in the development of PTSD in children who develop after a disaster ( 6 , 9 , 10 ). Some studies have indicated that younger children have less capacity to deal with trauma, which may result in them having more PTSD symptoms than older children ( 11 ). However, other studies have shown that older children had more severe symptoms than younger children ( 12 ).…”

Changes Over Time in Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Among Children Who Survived the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake and Predictive Variables

et al. 2021

Background: This study examines changes over time in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among children who survived the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake and the relevant predictive variables.Methods: A total of 203 children and adolescents were investigated 24 months after the earthquake, and 151 children and adolescents completed the 1-year follow-up study. Participants completed the Children's Revised Impact of Event Scale (CRIES-13), the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC). Hierarchical linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the predictors of changes in PTSD severity.Results: Eighty percent of the children still had some PTSD symptoms 2 years after the Wenchuan earthquake, and 66.25% of the children had symptoms that lasted 3 years. In the model predicting PTSD symptom severity, the loss of family members and child burial explained a significant 21.9% of the variance, and depression explained a significant 16.7% of the variance. In the model predicting changes in PTSD severity, the change scores for resilience and depression explained a significant 18.7% of the variance, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) explained a significant 33.6% of the variance.Conclusions: PTSD symptoms in children and adolescents can persist for many years after trauma. In addition to using psychological interventions to improve PTSD symptoms, improvements in depression and resilience should also be considered.
