- W2080931572 abstract "I am delighted to present another issue of Therapy dedicated to pediatrics. We bring you state-ofthe-art reviews on a ‘potpourri’ of pediatric topics in this issue of the journal. We have included overviews of several medications as well. Children with chronic diseases and their parents/caretakers have a significantly lower health-related qualityof-life. Normal social functioning, daily activities, vitality and positive emotions are adversely affected. Hence, appropriate management of complex issues by a multidisciplinary team addressing various aspects is the key. Such an approach is of utmost importance in the management of an entity such as obesity. Overweight and obesity have increased dramatically in prevalence for both adults and children since the mid-1970s. The growing obesity epidemic is a major public health concern, as obesity and being overweight are associated with Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, coronary heart disease, stroke, sleep apnea and osteo arthritis. Indeed, it is not an overstatement to refer to this worldwide trend as ‘the obesity pandemic’. Therefore, diet, exercise or drugs, how do you manage it? There is no single best option; however, the only approved medication for use in adolescents is discussed by Dr Chanoine [1]. Another common condition associated with obesity is nonalcoholic fatty-liver disease. Its diagnosis and management as reviewed by Dr Dahshan et al., confirms the need for a multifactorial approach [2]. It is important to make the families realize that there are no quick fixes for these issues, and early involvement in programs to alter lifestyles, along with close follow-up, are essential. Dr Miller further expands our horizons on the morbidities secondary to obesity, and shares the data on the epidemiology and healthcare burden of this chronic ailment [3]. Neonatal jaundice has been known since time immemorial and usually indirect hyperbilirubinemia ref lects a normal transitional pheno menon. However, the persistence of neonatal jaundice mandates a diagnostic evaluation to differentiate between indirect versus cholestatic etiology. There may be a sinister outcome if cholestatic jaundice is undiagnosed. Dr Best and Dr Gourley discuss the management of potential complications of direct hyperbilirubinemia [4]. Dr Kiessling reviews the important condition of pediatric hypertension [5]. Hypertension is now commonly discovered in children. The long-term health risks to these children with hypertension may be substantial." @default.
