Immunophenotypic markers were evaluated in 110 normal pediatric subjects, divided into groups of newborn infants, infants aged 2 days to 11 months, and children aged 1 to 6 years and 7 to 17 years; results were then compared with those obtained from 101 normal adults aged 18 to 70 years. Comparisons among age groups from newborn infants through adults reveal progressive declines in the absolute numbers of leukocytes, total lymphocytes, and T, B, and natural killer (NK) cells. The percentages of T cells within the total lymphocyte population increase with age, in both CD4+ and CD8+ subsets. Percentages of B and NK cells are higher in newborn infants than in adults. The expression of the activation markers interleukin-2R and HLA-DR on T cells increases with age, as does the NK-associated expression of CD57 on CD8 cells. The proportions of B lymphocytes that coexpress CD5 or CDw78 decrease with age, whereas expression of Leu-8 and CD23 increases. The proportion of CD4 cells bearing the CD45RA and Leu-8 markers is consistently lower in adults than in children. These data may serve as a reference range for studies of pediatric subjects.

Age-related changes in human blood lymphocyte subpopulations / Frank Hulstaert in Clinical immunology and immunopathology, 70(1994)02 ([02/01/1994])

Periodicals Indexation Adolescent ; Adult ; Aging ; Antigens, CD ; Antigens, Differentiation ; Child ; Child, Preschool ; Female ; Humans ; Immunophenotyping ; Infant ; Infant, Newborn ; Journal Article ; Leukocyte Count ; Male ; Middle Aged ; T-Lymphocytes ; United States Abstract: A reference range for lymphocyte populations, with particular emphasis on T lymphocyte subsets, was obtained for normal individuals covering age cohorts from birth through adulthood. This report confirms and extends findings from a developmental reference range published earlier (1). Absolute numbers of WBC, lymphocytes, and T, B, and NK subsets decline significantly during childhood. However, differences in the rate of decline of certain lymphocyte subsets leads to discordance between absolute numbers and percentages. Those lymphocyte subsets which decline less rapidly with age than the total lymphocyte count will show an increase in percentage, whereas those which decline more rapidly will show further declines in percentage values. T cell percentages were seen to increase over time whereas B cell percentages decline. Markers of immaturity such as CD45RA on CD4 cells and CD38 on CD8 cells declined in both percentages and absolute numbers. Activation markers, such as HLA-DR on CD8 cells and IL2-R on CD3 cells, increased in percentages with time but changed inconsistently in cell number from infancy to adulthood. These findings extend the lymphocyte references range to markers thought to be informative in various disease states, including HIV infection.

An economic evaluation of varicella vaccination in Italian adolescents / Nancy Thiry in Vaccine, 22(2004)27-28 ([09/09/2004])

The scenarios were: "compulsory vaccination" of all adolescents, recommended vaccination of susceptible adolescents on the basis of an "anamnestic screening", a "blood test" or a combination of both ("both tests") and vaccination of adolescents in the private sector, at the parents' charge ("private vaccination"). Probabilities and unit costs were taken from published sources and experts opinion. The accuracy of the anamnestic screening (81.6% sensitivity and 87.3% specificity) was derived from a separate descriptive study among 344 Italian adolescents. The costs and benefits of each scenario were simulated using a Markov model and cost-effectiveness, budget-impact and cost-benefit analyses were conducted. Of all considered scenarios, "both tests" and "anamnestic screening" were the most appealing options with an estimated net direct cost of 5058 and 8929 per life-year gained (compared to no vaccination) versus 14,693-42,842 for the other scenarios. These two scenarios further resulted in substantial net savings for society (over 600,000 per cohort, BCR: 2.17). The need for a serological confirmation was highly dependent on the sensitivity of the anamnestic screening, which is believed to increase once such a program is launched. For practical considerations, "anamnestic screening" seems to be the most convenient option.

ISSN : D/2014/10.273/84 : € 0,00 Studie n° 2013-22 Languages : Dutch (nla) Descriptors: Indexation 2013-22 ; Adolescent ; Child ; Child Development Disorders, Pervasive ; Psychotherapy ; R233 ; Therapeutics Classification WS 350.8.P4 Pervasive development disorders Abstract: Autismespectrumstoornis (ASS) uit zich op veel uiteenlopende manieren en elke persoon met autisme is uniek. Omdat het gaat om een neurologische ontwikkelingsstoornis kan ASS niet worden ‘genezen’. Het komt er dus vooral op aan om de capaciteiten van een kind of jongere met autisme zoveel mogelijk te ontwikkelen, storend gedrag te vermijden of onder controle te houden en om bijkomende handicaps te voorkomen. Het bestaande zorgaanbod is zeer uiteenlopend. Het Federaal Kenniscentrum voor de Gezondheidszorg (KCE) onderzocht welke interventies wetenschappelijk onderbouwd zijn, in samenwerking met vertegenwoordigers van ouders en alle betrokken sectoren. Voor elk kind of jongere met autisme moet een geïndividualiseerd, langdurig project worden opgezet en gedeeld door alle zorgverleners. De aanpak moet vooral bestaan uit psychosociale interventies waarbij ouders, zorgverleners en leerkrachten worden betrokken. Het rapport vermeldt ook welke praktijken niet wetenschappelijk onderbouwd zijn. Contents note: VOORWOORD 1 -- SYNTHESE 2 -- INHOUDSTAFEL 2 -- 1. INLEIDING 4 -- 1.1.
