A retrospective review of the casenotes of 403 children admitted to hospital with febrile convulsions was performed to estimate the frequency of symptomatic urinary tract infection and examine medical practice in making this diagnosis. A total of 228 (56%) children had urine cultured: 150 bag
A robust version of residual maximum likelihood estimation for Poisson log-linear mixed model is developed, and the method is extended to k-component Poisson mixture with random effects. The method not only provides the robust estimators for the fixed effects and variance component parameters but
UNASSIGNED
Febrile seizure is the most common type of seizure among children. Identification of factors involved in febrile seizure is highly critical. The present study was conducted to determine the association between children's urinary tract infection and febrile seizure.

OBJECTIVE
To determine the incidence of bacteremia, urinary tract infections, and unsuspected bacterial meningitis in a cohort of children diagnosed with febrile seizures.
METHODS
We assembled a retrospective, consecutive case series of patients who presented to an urban tertiary care pediatric
OBJECTIVE
Anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) is the most common surgical procedure for refractory temporal lobe epilepsy. When scalp electroencephalography cannot adequately identify an epileptogenic site, electrode implantation may be used to monitor epileptic activity and localize a target focus
Case series summary Four cats that presented with severe cluster seizures developed neurogenic urinary retention in the postictal phase. None of the cats had previous seizures. Micturition was reported as normal in all cats for 3 or more years before seizure onset. All cats required a continuous
The seizure-inducing potential of carbapenems has been debated since the introduction of imipenem/cilastatin over 20 years ago. Doripenem is a new carbapenem, recently approved in the US for the treatment of adults with complicated urinary tract infections (cUTI) or complicated intra-abdominal
OBJECTIVE
A large retrospective database study was conducted to assess the incidence rate of treatment-emergent renal impairment/failure, seizure, and hemolytic anemia in doripenem and imipenem intravenous (IV)-exposed patients treated for complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI) and complicated
Sixty-seven elderly patients (61 female, six male) with a mean age of 82 years (range 67-95) were orally treated for 4-14 days with enoxacin (200 or 400 mg bd) for urinary tract infections in a non-comparative open study. Fifty-three patients had features of pyelonephritis, and 17 had indwelling
OBJECTIVE
To determine the frequency of low serum zinc level in children presenting with febrile seizures at The Children's Hospital and the Institute of Child Health (CH/ICH) Multan.
METHODS
This is an observational cross sectional study conducted at the Department of Pediatric Medicine, The
Objective. To report one case of seizure following administration of ofloxacin. Case Summary. A 38-year-old woman with alcohol dependence but no prior history of seizure disorder admitted in our inpatient alcohol detoxification program was prescribed ofloxacin four days after admission for a lower
In a 12-month prospective study in 1984, blood and urinary cultures were obtained as a routine from 307 children who presented with fever and convulsions to the Mater Misericordiae Children's Hospital, Brisbane, and the results were compared with data from 1981-1983 when cultures were not taken as a
OBJECTIVE
Febrile seizures (FS) are the most common type of convulsive events in children. FS are suggested to result from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. However, the pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying FS remain unclear. Using an animal model of experimental FS, it was
OBJECTIVE
To describe the rates of serious bacterial illness (SBI) in children presenting to emergency departments (EDs) with first-time uncomplicated febrile seizures.
METHODS
The ED visits from seven Chicago metropolitan area hospitals (two tertiary pediatric EDs, five community general EDs) for
