Abstract
Juvenile scleroderma is a rare connective tissue disease that involves the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Among all presentations of juvenile scleroderma, localized scleroderma (JLSc) is the most frequent, followed by systemic disease (JSSc) and eosinophilic fasciitis (EF). In posttransplantation chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), scleroderma-like skin involvement can occur. Systemic forms of juvenile scleroderma and GvHD can affect the internal organs, such as the lungs, the gastrointestinal tract, the heart, and kidneys and cause disability and severe, sometimes lethal, complications. Here, the authors give an overview of different presentations of juvenile scleroderma. They report their experience with the different forms and presentations of scleroderma, diagnostic workups, treatment, and outcome of all forms of childhood scleroderma in the context of the existing literature.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Platelet hyperaggregability contributes to thromboembolic events of obesity in adulthood. In obese children hyperaggregability was described in platelet rich plasma. We investigated platelet aggregation in children with obesity and lipometabolic disorders in whole blood. PATIENTS, MATERIAL, METHODS Specimens from patients with overweight (n = 35), hypercholesterolaemia and normal weight (n = 5), overweight plus combined lipometabolic disorder (n = 5) and healthy controls (n = 20) were investigated. Aggregation and ATP release were induced by ADP (20 μmol/l), collagen (1 μg/ml) and thrombin (0.5 U/ml) using a lumiaggregometer. RESULTS Overweight children and normal weight patients with hypercholesterolaemia exhibited no significant differences in platelet aggregation compared to controls. Contrastingly, in patients with obesity plus lipometabolic disorder the aggregation rate was significantly higher (p < 0.05) suggesting a hyperaggregable state. CONCLUSION Obviously in obese children a hypercoagulable state exists and the slight hyperaggregability observed in whole blood in this cohort might contribute to that. Any effort should be undertaken to avoid obesity in children especially in those countries where the prevalence of obesity in childhood is continuously increasing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The diversity of quality improvement interventions (QIIs) has impeded the use of evidence review to advance quality improvement activities. An agreed-upon framework for identifying QII articles would facilitate evidence review and consensus around best practices. AIM To adapt and test evidence review methods for identifying empirical QII evaluations that would be suitable for assessing QII effectiveness, impact or success. DESIGN Literature search with measurement of multilevel inter-rater agreement and review of disagreement. METHODS Ten journals (2005-2007) were searched electronically and the output was screened based on title and abstract. Three pairs of reviewers then independently rated 22 articles, randomly selected from the screened list. Kappa statistics and percentage agreement were assessed. 12 stakeholders in quality improvement, including QII experts and journal editors, rated and discussed publications about which reviewers disagreed. RESULTS The level of agreement among reviewers for identifying empirical evaluations of QII development, implementation or results was 73% (with a paradoxically low kappa of 0.041). Discussion by raters and stakeholders regarding how to improve agreement focused on three controversial article selection issues: no data on patient health, provider behaviour or process of care outcomes; no evidence for adaptation of an intervention to a local context; and a design using only observational methods, as correlational analyses, with no comparison group. CONCLUSION The level of reviewer agreement was only moderate. Reliable identification of relevant articles is an initial step in assessing published evidence. Advancement in quality improvement will depend on the theory- and consensus-based development and testing of a generalizable framework for identifying QII evaluations.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) remains the only proven cure for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a rare malignancy in childhood. With the excellent results induced by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) imatinib in adults in the last decade, the appropriate management of children with CML has also changed radically, and only a minority are now transplanted as a front-line treatment. Data on pediatric experiences with imatinib in CML from controlled trials remain very limited, but this review of available data describes the role of imatinib in children with CML, addressing: 1) the starting dose; 2) pharmacokinetics in childhood; 3) possible adverse effects, with a focus on the still-growing skeleton; 4) early monitoring of treatment efficacy in an attempt to avoid failure; 5) the timing of allo-SCT in children; and 6) treatment of CML relapse after allo-SCT. Because the characteristics of CML in children seem to overlap extensively with what is described in adult internal medicine, most answers and pediatric algorithms are adapted from the treatment of CML in adults. Today in 2010, allo-SCT in children should be postponed until CML becomes refractory to imatinib. The approach for young patients with suboptimal responses is unclear because data on the efficacy and safety of second-generation TKIs in childhood are almost entirely missing. Other than being included in a formal trial on second-generation TKIs, allo-SCT for patients failing imatinib remains the first choice.

Abstract
PURPOSE Stem cell transplantation (SCT) can definitely cure chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a rare disease in childhood. We prospectively evaluated the results of early SCT in pediatric CML after standardized pretreatment with hydroxyurea+/-interferon. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1995 and 2004, 200 children (median age: 12.4 years) were enrolled and stratified: given the availability of an HLA-matched related donor (MRD), SCT was scheduled within 6 months and otherwise from an unrelated donor (UD) within 12 months following diagnosis. RESULTS 176 patients underwent SCT; from MRD within median 4 months and from UD within median 11 months after diagnosis. At SCT, 158 patients were in chronic phase (CP1 or CP2), 9 patients were in accelerated phase and 9 patients were in blast crisis (BC). The conditioning regimen - total body irradiation or busulfan - exerted no different impact on overall survival (OS). Probability of OS at 5 years was 87+/-11% if grafted from a sibling (n=41), 52+/-9% from matched UD (MUD, n=71), and 45+/-16% from mismatched donors (MMD, n=55), respectively. A trend for better OS in CP1 was observed if SCT was performed within 6 months (n=49; 74+/-9%), compared to 7-12 months (n=52; 62+/-15%), and >12 months (n=43; 62+/-17%) after diagnosis, respectively (p=0.157). Probability of relapse at 5 years was 20+/-12%. Transplant-related mortality and graft-versus-host disease mainly contributed to the inferior outcome in UD and HLA-mismatched SCT. CONCLUSION These data from the first prospective trial on CML restricted to children and adolescents might be considered for decision making when balancing the risks of SCT against the increasing use of imatinib as upfront treatment for CML.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The Aspirin-like defect (ALD) is caused by defects in the intraplatelet arachidonic acid (AA)-metabolism. We here present the characteristics of a larger cohort in a single centre. PATIENTS, METHODS Based on 17 ALD index patients bleeding symptoms, agonist-induced platelet aggregation and closure times in the PFA-100 test were analysed in a family cohort of altogether 52 individuals from 17 families. Absent aggregation to AA (maximal aggregation <or= 10%) was the main diagnostic criterion. A mild ALD was diagnosed when aggregation was 11-40%. RESULTS In addition to 17 ALD index patients, 13 family members displayed ALD. 4 family members were diagnosed with a mild ALD. Epistaxis, easy bruising, menorrhagia and perioperative hemorrhage were the most common bleeding symptoms, whereas three quarters of ALD patients presented with >or=1 bleeding symptoms. CONCLUSION In case of a bleeding tendency diagnostic procedures should rule out primary haemostatic defects. Hereditary platelet function defects including ALD are an important differential diagnosis. Family studies are reasonable.

Abstract
Due to the recent changes in the indication to allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), we retrospectively analyzed 1,716 patients with different CML stages who received an allograft from related (n = 767) or unrelated donors (n = 938) within the German Registry of Stem Cell Transplantation (DRST) from 1998 to 2004. Myeloablative conditioning was performed in 724/871 cases (83%), dose-reduced conditioning in 147/871 (17%). Annual transplantations were decreasing from 357 to 98 (28%) in the period of study, but the proportion of advanced cases was increasing from 32% (112/346) to 53% (50/94) of all SCTs. Stage of disease, intervals from diagnosis, and patients' age were independent prognostic parameters, while peripheral stem cells and unrelated transplantation seemed equal to bone marrow/related transplantation. This study demonstrates that allo-SCT still has an important role in advanced CML, which emphasizes the need for optimized transplantation strategies for these high-risk patients.

Abstract
Allogeneic haematopoietic SCT (HSCT) induces CRs in most patients with CML. With the excellent short-term treatment results induced by imatinib (IMA), attitudes have changed and only a minority of children are now transplanted upfront. This review addresses the role of IMA in children with CML, focusing on the starting dose of IMA, possible adverse effects, timing of HSCT in children, duration of IMA treatment and monitoring of treatment efficacy to unravel failure of early treatment of IMA as well as treatment of CML relapse after HSCT. As the paediatric experience with IMA is still very limited, many answers and algorithms are adapted from CML in adults. Basically, HSCT should be postponed to achieve an optimal tumour cell reduction by IMA treatment. Children with a low-risk EBMT score should undergo HSCT within 2 years after diagnosis to avoid prolonged exposure and unknown late effects of IMA. Without a perfectly HLA-matched donor, HSCT may be postponed until CML becomes refractory to IMA. As realized in the presently activated international trial CML-paed II, this approach represents a risk-adapted therapy with the benefit of being tailored to the needs and profile of an individual patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The characteristic chromosomal translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11) in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) mainly results in the two different BCR/ABL fusion transcripts b2a2 or b3a2. Both transcript variants can occur simultaneously due to alternative splicing of the b3a2 transcript. Conflicting results have been reported on the influence of the transcripts on haematological findings at diagnosis and the course of the disease in adults while data concerning these topics on childhood CML are still missing. This paper reports on a correlation of BCR/ABL transcript variants with patients' characteristics in childhood CML. DESIGN AND METHODS Transcript types were determined in 146 paediatric patients with CML enrolled in trial CML-paed-I. Fifty-five patients (38%) expressed b2a2, 53 patients (36%) b3a2 and 38 patients (26%) both transcripts, respectively. These findings were correlated with patients' characteristics (sex, age, WBC, Hb, platelet count, hepatosplenomegaly, etc.) assessed at diagnosis. RESULTS While the co-expression of both transcripts was evenly distributed among genders [b2a2 + b3a2: 22 females (28%), 16 males (24%)] a highly significant difference (P = 0.007) was found concerning the expression of the b2a2 transcript [34 male (51%) vs. 21 female (27%)] and vice versa of the b3a2 transcript [17 male (25%) vs. 36 female (45%)]. High platelet counts and the combination of high platelet counts in conjunction with pronounced leukocytosis were observed more often in patients expressing the b3a2 transcript. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrate that in children like in adults specific BCR/ABL transcript types present at diagnosis are associated with distinct haematological alterations (e.g. a high platelet count with the transcript b3a2). However, the sex-dependent skewed distribution of the BCR/ABL transcript types observed so far in this paediatric cohort only deserves further investigation.
