Improvement in survival has been achieved for children and adolescents with AML but is largely attributed to enhanced supportive care as opposed to the development of better treatment regimens. High risk subtypes continue to have poor outcomes with event free survival rates < 40% despite the use of high intensity chemotherapy in combination with hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Here we combine high-throughput screening, intracellular accumulation assays, and in vivo efficacy studies to identify therapeutic strategies for pediatric AML. We report therapeutics not currently used to treat AML, gemcitabine and cabazitaxel, have broad anti-leukemic activity across subtypes and are more effective relative to the AML standard of care, cytarabine, both in vitro and in vivo. JAK inhibitors are selective for acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and significantly prolong survival in multiple preclinical models. Our approach provides advances in the development of treatment strategies for pediatric AML.

Challenges Of Training And Delivery Of Pediatric Surgical Services In Developing Economies: A Perspective From Pakistan, Amir Humza Sohail, Muhammad Hassaan Arif Maan, Mohammed Sachal, Muhammad Soban

Medical College Documents

Background: As the pediatric population requiring health services rises globally, developing countries are struggling to cater to the growing burden of non-communicable diseases - particularly those requiring specialized surgical care.
Main body: Despite the literature supporting specialized pediatric surgical care, the developing world is far from meeting the American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) Manpower taskforce recommendation of at least 1 qualified pediatric surgeon per 100,000 patients (0-15 years-old). In Pakistan, there is an unmet surgical need in the pediatric population due to a multitude of short shortcomings, notably in quality and quantity of the training programs on offer, and urgent …

Permanent Junctional Reciprocating Tachycardia In Infants And Children, Ranjit I. Kylat Md, Ricardo A. Samson May 2019

Permanent Junctional Reciprocating Tachycardia In Infants And Children, Ranjit I. Kylat Md, Ricardo A. Samson

School of Medicine Faculty Research

Permanent junctional reciprocating tachycardia (PJRT) is a rare form of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). It generally presents in infants but can be difficult to diagnose. The characteristic EKG findings, response to Adenosine and persistence or frequent recurrences are helpful in making the diagnosis. It is usually difficult to manage with the initial and single medications used in SVT. Many patients are misdiagnosed and not treated effectively and end up having end stage cardiomyopathy and are diagnosed in patients referred for transplant. Hence all patients referred for a cardiac transplant with dilated cardiomyopathy need to be evaluated for this arrhythmia. If appropriate …

Manuscripts, Articles, Book Chapters and Other Papers

Introduction: Animal studies and rare human studies have suggested a negative effect of barbiturates on cardiac function. Although intravenous (IV) phenobarbital is used routinely in children in the clinical setting, studies in children are lacking. We performed a study to evaluate effect of IV phenobarbital loading on myocardial systolic function of children.

Methods: In a prospective pilot study in children without congenital heart defects, the effect of IV phenobarbital was evaluated on the left ventricular systolic function measured by ejection fraction (EF) by Simpson's method via an echocardiogram. Any child less than 18 years of age who received IV loading …
