Disease relevance of Only Child

• Nearly all the pediatricians (90%) do some cholesterol screening, with the majority (58%) screening only children with a strong family history of coronary heart disease [1].

Psychiatry related information on Only Child

• Variables consistently unrelated to TV/video viewing were sex, other indicators of socio-economic status, body fatness, cholesterol levels, aerobic fitness, strength, other indicators of fitness, self-perceptions, emotional support, physical activity, other diet variables, and being an only child [2].

High impact information on Only Child

• Among children only receiving one dose of measles vaccine at age 9 months, 100,000 IU vitamin A increased antibody concentrations, especially for boys [3].
• The only child of the propositus, a daughter, showed a similar relative resistance, confirming that this family is the third to be reported with hereditary resistance to warfarin [4].
• METHODS: In 198 children (with two kidneys, single kidney, or renal transplant) and 116 adults (single kidney and transplanted), we measured inulin clearance and creatinine clearance and calculated Cockcroft-Gault, MDRD and, in children only, Schwartz [5].
• METHODS: This study was undertaken at a tertiary children's hospital, The Children's Hospital at Westmead, The Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children, Westmead, Sydney, Australia. Only children with severe acute asthma as determined by the National Asthma Campaign guidelines criteria and pulmonary index were included [6].
• In the French MDH 90 trial, 15% of children failed to reach ECR after four cycles; in these children only, anthracyclines plus alkylating agents were given and the dose of radiotherapy increased, improving the results observed in the previous trial [7].

Associations of Only Child with chemical compounds

• These findings raise questions about the current practice of screening only children with a family history of cardiovascular disease to identify those with elevated total cholesterol and LDL-C levels [8].
• Twenty children only received an initial loading dose of 3 mg/kg intravenous propofol [9].
• A 14-year-old boy, an only child, with the phenotypical dysmorphic features of the King-Denborough Syndrome developed a severe hyperthermic episode during anesthesia which responded to the administration of sodium dantrolene [10].
• EEG spikes were confirmed in one child only; the corresponding laudanosine Cmax was 720 ng ml(-1) [11].
• The diagnosis was supported by technetium micro aggregate lung perfusion scans in three of the children and in the fourth, the only child to die, by autopsy [12].

Gene context of Only Child

• Interestingly, the only child infected with a multitropic virus carried a defective CCR5 allele [13].
• Nine (2.2 %) Kenyan and 12 (6.6 %) of the Sudanese children only were carriers of variants within the coding sequence of the GJB2 gene [14].
• Urinary IGFBP-2, IGFBP-3 and ALS were detectable in the SDNS children only [15].
• CONCLUSION: Although only children with ADHD are characterized primarily by "attention deficit," sustained attention deficit is common to a certain extent to all children with psychiatric disorders [16].
• CONCLUSIONS: Asthma is related to atopy in pre-selected children only from the age of 7 years [17].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Only Child

• The only child with normal findings on laryngoscopy exhibited a pathological GER at both sensors [18].
