Abstract
OBJECTIVE The etiology of early-onset diarrhea of neonates and small infants that persists despite bowel rest is heterogeneous. Two different categories of disorders presenting with diarrhea in the first weeks of life can be distinguished: constitutive intestinal epithelial disorders (microvillus atrophy [MVA] or epithelial dysplasia [ED]) and immune-inflammatory disorders, (autoimmune enteropathy [AIE] or inflammatory colitis [IC]). We aimed to evaluate in a prospective manner the use of fecal inflammatory markers in the differential diagnosis of severe persistent diarrhea. MATERIAL AND PATIENTS Twenty-five patients (17 males) were enrolled in this study (median age 8 months). Fourteen children had a constitutive enterocyte disorder (group 1: MVA = 8, ED = 6), and 11 patients had an immuno-inflammatory disease (group 2: AIE = 5, IC = 6). Stool samples were collected at the time of diagnosis and stored at -80 degrees until tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and calprotectin were measured by enzyme-linked immunoadsorbent assay. RESULTS No significant differences in age at onset of diarrhea or in stool volumes were observed between both groups. In group 1, fecal TNF-alpha was undetectable/normal in 14 of 14 children, whereas group 2 showed dramatically elevated TNF-alpha levels (mean 3,104, range 237-18,078 pg/g) in 8 of 11 patients. Similarly, calprotectin levels were undetectable/normal in 14 of 14 patients in group 1 and highly raised in 11 of 11 patients in group 2 (median 1,145, range 375-3,095 mug/g), P < 0.01. Under therapy, these inflammatory parameters normalized. CONCLUSIONS Determination of fecal inflammatory markers is a simple method helping to distinguish constitutive from immuno-inflammatory etiologies of severe persistent diarrhea. These data also suggest that constitutive enterocyte disorders are not accompanied by an inflammatory mucosal reaction.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This retrospective study aims to analyze the outcome, the prognosis factors and the long-term growth of children after extensive small bowel (SB) resection in the neonatal period. PATIENTS AND METHODS 87 children, born between 1975 and 1991 who had undergone extensive neonatal small bowel resection, were followed up over a mean period of 15 years. Anatomical data influencing PN dependency and duration were analyzed. Data on height and weight were collected and compared using growth standards. Final heights were studied for patients who achieved their puberty and compared to predicted height based on Tanner's formula. Patients were analyzed according to PN weaning and growth: children still receiving PN (group A), patients weaned from initial PN but requiring PN once again or enteral feeding (group B), and children with permanent intestinal autonomy (group C). RESULTS The overall survival is 89.7 %, depending on the date of birth. The duration of PN-dependency varies according to the intestinal length and the presence of the ileocaecal valve (ICV). All patients who remain PN dependent had less than 40 cm of small bowel and/or the absence of ICV. Patients in group B had a mean small bowel length of 35 +/- 19 cm, resection of the ICV in 50 % of cases, and a PN duration of 47.4 +/- 23.8 months. There was a significant decrease in height and weight gain within the 4 years after cessation of PN, requiring enteral or parenteral feeding. Patients in group C had a mean small bowel length of 57 +/- 19 cm, presence of ICV in 81 % of cases and a PN duration of 16.1 +/- 11.4 months. After PN weaning, they grow up normally with normal puberty and final height as predicted from genetic target height. CONCLUSION PN duration is influenced by the length of residual SB and the absence of ICV. With good anatomic prognosis factors and short duration of initial PN, normal long-term growth may be predicted. Conversely, poor anatomical factors and protracted initial PN require careful monitoring of growth and may sometimes require nutritional support to be restarted. The last group, permanently dependent on PN, might be candidates for intestinal transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lamina propria T lymphocytes (LPL) of the intestinal mucosa are chronically activated in Crohn's disease (CD). Defective apoptosis of activated LPL was proposed as a key pathogenic mechanism. In fact, increased expression of antiapoptotic molecules was observed in CD LPL. In the present work, we aimed to analyse the effects and underlying molecular mechanisms of 5-amino salicylic acid (5-ASA) and derivatives on apoptosis of LPL and peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) in patients with CD compared with ulcerative colitis (UC) and in non-inflammatory controls. METHODS PBL and LPL were isolated by Ficoll-Hypopaque gradient centrifugation and the EGTA-collagenase method, respectively. PBL/LPL were stimulated with FasL, 5-ASA, sulphapyridine, and sulphasalazine for 24/48 hours and apoptosis was quantified by flow cytometry (annexin V- propidium iodide method) and immunofluorescence. The molecular mechanisms of drug induced apoptosis were analysed in wild-type and FADD-/- Jurkat T cells using western blots and caspase assays. RESULTS While PBL displayed a normal apoptosis pattern after Fas stimulation in patients with active CD, LPL from inflammatory areas were highly resistant. Comparable resistance to apoptosis was observed in LPL of UC patients. In contrast with 5-ASA, which did not induce apoptosis in lymphocytes, sulphasalazine proved to be a potent proapoptotic agent. Sulphasalazine induced T lymphocyte apoptosis was independent of the Fas pathway but associated with marked downregulation of antiapoptotic bcl-xl and bcl2, activation of the mitochondrial apoptosis signalling pathway, and subsequent activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3. CONCLUSION The beneficial effect of sulphasalazine in treating inflammatory bowel disease is at least in part attributable to its proapoptotic effects on LPL which allows potent downregulation of lymphocyte activation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether long-term consumption of a fermented infant formula could influence the incidence of acute diarrhea and its severity in healthy infants. METHOD Nine hundred seventy-one infants, ranging in age from 4 to 6 months, were included in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial during a period of 5 months. They consumed daily either a fermented infant formula (FF) (fermentation with Bifidobacterium breve C50 and Streptococcus thermophilus 065) or a standard infant formula (SF) of the same nutritional composition. EVALUATION CRITERIA Number and duration of acute diarrhea episodes were evaluated. Severity of the episodes was determined by the number of hospital admissions, incidence of dehydration, number of medical consultations, number of oral rehydration solution prescriptions, and number of formula switches. RESULTS Growth of the infants and acceptability of the formulas were identical in the two groups. Incidence, duration of diarrhea episodes, and number of hospital admissions did not differ significantly between groups. Episodes were less severe in the FF (fermented formula) group. There were fewer cases of dehydration 2.5%versus 6.1% (P = 0.01), fewer medical consultations (46%v 56.6%, P = 0.003), fewer ORS prescriptions 41.9%v 51.9% (P = 0.003) and fewer switches to other formulas (59.5%v 74.9%, P = 0.0001) in FF infants compared to SF. CONCLUSION A fermented formula may reduce the severity of acute diarrhea among healthy young infants. This outcome may be linked to the bifidogenic effects of fermentation products and their interactions with the intestinal immune system.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Peritoneal tuberculosis is an uncommon presentation of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis in children. It usually presents as ascites, abdominal pain, anorexia and weight loss. CASES REPORT We report two adolescent patients who presented with ascites, fever, weight loss and abdominal distension. In one case, the diagnosis was late, and confirmed by ascites culture. In the second case, a laparoscopy was performed and showed whitish nodules involving the entire abdominal cavity, compatible with peritoneal tuberculosis, later confirmed bacteriologically. CONCLUSION Peritoneal tuberculosis presents with nonspecific symptoms. Because laboratory investigations may not be helpful, diagnosis may be difficult. Peritoneal-fluid adenosine deaminase (ADA) determination and coelioscopy seem to be the best way to make a rapid diagnosis.

Abstract
In children who depend on long-term parenteral nutrition (PN), a major goal is to obtain optimal growth. The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze growth in children on long-term cyclic nocturnal home PN, over at least 8 years before puberty. Nine boys and 7 girls were studied. Their mean age at the time of study was 11 years with a mean PN duration of 10.5 (8.6-16.4) years. Diseases were short bowel syndrome (5), intractable diarrhea (4), chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (4) and long segment Hirschsprung's disease (3). In each child, periods of at least 2 years were analyzed: either periods of regular growth (R: height gain >50th percentile), or slow growth (S: height gain < or =25th percentile). Results were expressed as mean +/- SD. Comparisons were performed using either Student's test for unpaired data or Wilcoxon's test for paired data. PN provided a mean of 224 +/- 80 mg nitrogen/kg/day and 43 +/- 14 kcal/kg/day equivalent to 50% of recommended supplies. At the time of study, the population presented with weight (W) = -0.7 +/- 0.8 SD and height (H) = -1.5 +/- 1.3 SD. The difference between W and expected W for H (W/H) was significant (p < 0.002). W/H ratio was 105 +/- 11%. For the total PN duration, weight gain was +0.2 +/- 1.5 SD and height loss was -0.75 +/- 1.4 SD. An excess weight gain occurred in parallel with the deflection of height gain. Of the 16 children, regular prepubertal growth was achieved in 4 only. The other 12 showed alternate periods of R and S. In 8 of them, 26.5 years of R and 33.5 years of S were compared, each child being his own control. PN nitrogen and energy supplies were significantly higher during R periods than during S periods. In the absence of any disease or treatment explaining the failure to thrive, inadequate PN supplies, especially in terms of nitrogen supply, are thought to be responsible for a negative nitrogen balance and slowed growth. In case of any deflection away from the individual growth curve, it is recommended to adjust the PN supply early, especially nitrogen supply.

Abstract
In order to examine the presentation and course of Crohn's disease (CD) with an onset of CD before the age of 10 and to assess indications and effects of surgery, a retrospective study was performed in 18 children. One hundred and twenty-two children with CD have been followed over the last 22 years in our institution. Thirty of them had the first onset of disease before 10 years of age. Eighteen out of these 30 underwent intestinal resection (IR). The mean age at the onset of CD was 6.4 years and the average duration of follow-up was 11.1 years. Most common symptoms were abdominal pain (72 %), diarrhoea (72 %), and growth retardation (50 %). Colon and ileum were the most frequently involved areas. Most of the children (94.5 %) received extensive medical and or nutritional treatment before surgery. We performed 26 IRs and 14 other operations in 18 patients. Indications for IR were chronic intestinal obstruction (13 cases) and chronic intestinal disability (13 cases). Improvements in the general clinical state were obtained in 17 cases out of 18. IR is beneficial for chronically ill children with ineffective medical therapy. A disease-free interval after surgery may provide an important time for improved growth and pubertal development and a return to nearly normal life for a long time.

Abstract
UNLABELLED No study has yet compared the respective psychological impact of corticotherapy and enteral nutrition in the treatment of Crohn's disease, and especially, the psychological problems linked to the wearing of a nasogastric tube 24 hours a day. The goal of this study was to collect comparative information regarding the real-life experience and the feeling of these two treatments. PATIENTS AND METHODS From September 1997 to February 1998 at the clinic of inflammatory bowel diseases of the hospital Necker-Enfants malades, 51 patients aged 12 to 18 (average 15) participated in this study. Thirty [15 on corticotherapy (CT); 15 on enteral nutrition (EN)] answered a questionnaire inspired by a similar Canadian questionnaire (Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire), and 21 passed Spielberger's anxiety tests, Beck's depression tests and a psychological interview. RESULTS TREATMENT According to the 30 questionnaires the appreciation of the therapeutic results was similar in the two treatments, the majority of patients respected their treatment (only one patient on EN ate secretly and two on CT stopped their corticotherapy). Of the 15 EN questionnaires: nine out of 15 patients responded well to the suspension of oral feeding, two were hungry, nine experienced cravings and ten avoided meals during their treatment. From a cosmetic point of view, six/14 (43%) found it difficult putting up with the nasogastric tube 24 hours a day, and eight/15 (53%) on CT found the facial swelling difficult to bear. According to the 21 psychological interviews, eight patients deemed EN efficient, while only four felt the same about CT. Of the 11 EN psychological interview, no adolescent patients were hungry, eight had cravings and nine avoided meals during their treatment, seven mentioned they felt different and seven described how EN had upset the family's routine. Nine (82%) talked about how difficult it was to put up with the nasogastric tube 24 hours a day from a cosmetic standpoint while eight/ten (80%) on CT found the facial swelling difficult to live with. Seven complained that they had been the victims of verbal abuse. Quality of life: According to the 30 questionnaires, eight/15 patients on EN missed an average of 15 days of school against five/15 patients on CT, ten patients judged that EN restricted their daily lives and nine mentioned the daily difficulties to wear a tube 24 hours a day. TESTS Spielberger's test of anxiety revealed that on average, the 11 patients on EN who were interviewed suffered the first level of anxiety, while the ten patients on CT felt the second level. As for the Beck's depression test, the 11 patients on NE suffered the first level of depression on average, while those on CT were subject to the second level. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that EN was perceived as being more disruptive to patients daily lives than CT and defines the difficulties linked to the suspension of oral feeding and the wearing of a naso-gastric tube. The study also describes the difficulties involved in coping with the side effects of CT, one example being facial swelling which can be as unpleasant from a cosmetic point of view as wearing of a naso-gastric tube.

Abstract
For many years soy bean-based formulas (SBBF) were the only dietary product used for infants with cow's milk intolerance. At the present time, their place in infant nutrition is reduced as a result of the availability of new dietary products without lactose and/or cow's milk proteins and the recognition of soy bean protein allergy. There is no evidence that SBBF have any efficiency in infant colic. SBBF have no indication in the prevention of allergy, nor in premature infants' nutrition. Their main indication is the feeding of infants of vegetarian parents who do not want to use cow's milk products. Studies have shown that SBBF contain large quantities of phytoestrogens, particularly isoflavone. Because of experimental data suggesting a possible deleterious effect of phytoestrogens on the neuroendocrine maturation, the reduction of their content in SBBF must be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100, a dominantly inherited form of hypercholesterolemia caused by a single Arg3500Gln mutation, is silent in childhood but may confer a high risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. The objective was to determine the prevalence of familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 in hypercholesterolemic French children and to provide a basis for targeting screening efforts in this population. METHODS One hundred ninety children attending 13 pediatric clinics distributed throughout France were included based on the presence of type IIa hypercholesterolemia with a plasma low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol level of more than 130 mg/dL. The Arg3500Gln mutation was detected in dried blood spots using a polymerase chain reaction assay combined with enzymatic restriction. RESULTS Three hyperlipidemia phenotypes were found: monogenic dominant pure hypercholesterolemia (n = 117), polygenic hypercholesterolemia (n = 43), and combined hyperlipidemia (n = 11). Three unrelated children were heterozygous for the Arg3500Gln mutation; all three had monogenic dominant pure hypercholesterolemia (3/94 families; 3.2%), yielding a prevalence of 1.83% (3/164) in hypercholesterolemic children, which is similar to prevalences reported in European adults. CONCLUSIONS The familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 mutation was common (1/31) in children with a phenotype of familial hypercholesterolemia, supporting screening in this population with the goal of preventing premature cardiovascular events.

Abstract
We report on a 15-year-old girl with severe pre- and post-natal growth retardation, poorly muscled build, micrognathia, ulnar ray oligodactyly, absent clavicles, abnormal scapulae, humeroradial fusion, hip dislocation, small iliac wings, slender tubular bones and normal intelligence. An extensive search has failed to ascribe this association to a known condition. This child shared some clinical and radiological features with the Yunis-Varon syndrome but the normal intelligence and the ulnar ray oligodactyly of our patient does not support this diagnosis.
