Abstract:
This study revealed the incidence of neonatal jaundice in the Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital Jakarta to be 32.1%, i.e 42.97% in low birth weight infants and 29.70% in fulllerm infants. No pathological basis was proven in many cases. The factors which may cause pathological jaundice according to the frequency are as follows: infections, anoxia and hypoxia, hemolysis due to G6PD deficiency, multiple factors and hypoglycemia etc. This study also revealed that 69.5% of jaundiced infants had bilirubin concentration of more than 10 mg%. Analysis of the factors showed that most of them were preventable.

Abstract:
Neonatal jaundice is a common illness that affects around 80% of preterm and 50–60% of full-term newborn infants. It is one of the most common causes of neonatal death. Neonatal jaundice may be physiological or pathological. Physiologic jaundice is far more common than pathologic jaundice and accounts for most hyperbilirubinemia. Physiologic jaundice in neonates is due to greater hemoglobin breakdown compared to bilirubin clearance. While pathological jaundice occurs due to various infections, drug toxicity, inborn enzyme deficiencies, Rhesus fetal-maternal incompatibility, hypothyroidism, and congenital biliary duct obstruction diseases. In many parts of the world, midwives, and nurses perform spontaneous vaginal deliveries and they only rely on visual screening for neonatal jaundice. However, this is not reliable, especially for newborns having darker skin. Educating the mothers on screening for early detection of neonatal jaundice and seeking medical treatment in a country like Pakistan, which is considered a high-risk population, is crucial. Also, as most females give birth at home, hence, midwives’ knowledge about neonatal jaundice also needs to be improved.

Abstract
 Backgrounds: Jaundice occurs in most newborn due to increased bilirubin concentration. Jaundice is observed during the first week after birth in approximately 60% of term neonates. A high level of bilirubin is neurotoxic and may cause neonatal kernicterus, auditory neuropathy or death.
 Objectives: to compare the Rh group compatibility, serum bilirubin (total and direct), serum albumin and several liver enzymes between physiological and pathological neonatal jaundice
 Materials and Methods: A cross sectional study for one hundred neonates with jaundice divided into group 1: 50 newborns with physiological jaundice, Group 2: 50 newborns with pathological jaundice. Blood samples taken from each patient use to determination of Rh Group and blood group, serum bilirubin (total and direct, liver enzymes and albumin concentration. Results: in the present study Rh Compatibility show a significant relationship between newborns with physiological and pathological jaundice (p<0.05). Serum bilirubin (total and direct), serum albumin concentration and several liver enzymes were significantly higher when compare newborns with pathological jaundice with newborns of physiological jaundice (p<0.05).
 Conclusion: these finding demonstrate that newborns with pathological jaundice have higher concentrations of these parameters as compared with physiological jaundice .

Abstract:
Background: Neonatal jaundice is a common condition especially in the first week of life. There are various maternal and neonatal clinical characteristics that have been associated with pathological jaundice. Objectives: To describe clinical profile of pathological jaundice and to estimate its prevalence among newborns admitted at the National Referral Hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study design was used to study pathological jaundice cases admitted at the Gyaltsuen Jetsun Pema Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital (JDWNRH) from 7th November 2018 till 6th November 2019. Data was collected using a predesigned case proforma, entered and analyzed in Epidata after obtaining ethical clearance from the Research Ethics Board of Health (REBH), Bhutan. Results: Facility based prevalence rate of pathological neonatal jaundice was found to be 63.66% in our setting. The median age on presentation was 4 days. Blood group ABO incompatibility and neonates less than one week of age were found to be most common neonatal profile in this study. Significant association was found between primiparous mothers and excessive weight loss. Conclusion: The prevalence of pathological jaundice was high in our setting. ABO incompatibility, neonates less than one week of age, primigravida mothers with feeding issues should be closely followed or screened for pathological jaundice especially during the first one week of life.

Abstract:
Infants are important vulnerable groups in the segment of population and they are the determinants of health of nation. The future of the country depends on the care given to children. Jaundice is considered pathologic if it presents within the first 24 hours after birth, the total serum bilirubin level rises by more than 5 mg per dL (86 mol per L) per day or is higher than 17 mg per dL (290 mol per L), or an infant has signs and symptoms suggestive of serious illness. The present study aimed to assess the development among infants affected with pathological jaundice at selected hospital in puducherry. A descriptive research design was used and the study was carried out, 300 infants affected with pathological jaundice during newborn life were selected as the study sample using convenient sampling technique. The tools used for the data collection included newborn assessment tool, ages and stages questionnaire. Ages and stages questionnaire is a standardized questionnaire used worldwide to assess the development of children at all level of ages. Newborns with pathological jaundice were assessed for their growth. The newborns were followed during their regular visit to well-baby clinic, there development were assessed at 1 months (early infancy )and again at 12 months(late infancy) .On association between the early and late infants development, it was found that there was improvement in development between them which stated that there was impact of pathological jaundice on the development during early infancy whereas during late infancy they caught with the normal development showing improvement in overall domains. As per the statistical result, the calculated chisquare value was significant at 0.01 level (p<0.001).

Abstract:
Background: The objective of the present study was to investigate the predictability of pathological jaundice on cord blood albumin values.Methods: It was a prospective observation study conducted in Kurji holy family hospital on 289 healthy new-borns. Babies were divided into two groups. Group A who developed physiological jaundice and group B who developed pathological jaundice. Cord blood albumin was estimated in all new-born who were then followed up-to 5th day of life. Babies who developed jaundice requiring treatment were admitted in NICU for phototherapy. Rest where checked regularly up-to 5th day of life and value recorded on 5th day by estimation of serum albumin.Results: Incidence of pathological hyperalbuminemia in present study was 11.2%. There was statistically significant correlation between cord blood albumin and development of pathological jaundice. Gender, age, mode of delivery and birth weight has no correlation with cord albumin and the subsequent development of jaundice. Cord blood albumin <3.5mg/dl when compared with subsequent development of jaundice has high specificity (83.92%) and negative predictive value (87.35%). Cord blood value of >2.5mg/dl has high sensitivity (97.06%), specificity (99.22%), Positive predictive value (94.29%) and negative predictive value (99.61%) in predicting future development of pathological jaundice.Conclusions: The 87.35% negative predictive value in the present study suggests that in healthy term babies (Cord blood albumin ≤3.5mg/dl) cord serum albumin can help to identify those new-borns who are unlikely to require further evaluation and intervention. These new-borns can be discharged with assurance to parents. Babies with CBA level <2.5mg/dl should be followed more frequently. Thus, this study concludes that cord blood total albumin levels reliably predict the occurrence of pathological hyperalbuminemia.

Abstract:
Background: Hyperbilirubinemia is a common problem and, in most cases, a benign problem in neonates. Jaundice is observed during the 1st week of life in approximately 60% of term infants and 80% of preterm infants.Methods: In present study, total 187 newborns were enrolled prospectively over one and half year of study period from November 2015 to April 2017. Detailed patient information was taken at the time of admission in NICU. In this study all the newborns with age less than 28 days were included who had clinical jaundice, ascertained by Kramer’s criteria and confirmed by biochemical methods. The investigations done were Serum bilirubin (total, direct and indirect) complete blood picture, reticulocyte count, G6-PD estimation (qualitative), Coombs' test, peripheral smear examination, blood group (ABO,Rh) of the mother and baby, CBC,CRP, thyroid function test.Results: Total 187 newborns were enrolled for study. Maximum number of the babies have a pathological jaundice 108 (57.7%) whereas 79 (42.24%) were found to have exaggerated physiological jaundice. The commonest causes of pathological jaundice were found to be septicemia 63 (33.68%) followed by ABO incompatibility 25 (13.36%). Most of the babies had onset of jaundice between 24-72 hours (86.6%).Conclusions: Health care providers working with neonates play a key role in identifying and assessing neonates at risk for pathologic jaundice. Parents counseling is required for bringing their babies early to healthcare centre preventing acute bilirubin encephalopathy and subsequent kernicterus.

Abstract:
Background: To study non-obstructive causes and laboratory profile of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Design: prospective study.Methods: Selection of cases were done from routine cases reporting to newborn unit in the department of paediatrics, with clinical evidence of jaundice in neonates. Blood group of the mother and baby, Serum bilirubin estimation, Complete blood count with peripheral smear examination, Reticulocyte count, Direct coomb’s test and C-reactive protein of the baby were done.Results: Study includes 89 cases of newborn admitted in our tertiary care institute. Out of 89 neonates, 52 (58.42%) were male while 37 (41.57%) were females. Total number of Pre-term babies was 35 (39.32%). Neonates having low birth weight were 30 (33.7%) and very low birth were 10 (11.23%). Physiological jaundice constituted majority cases. Septicemia was the commonest cause of pathological jaundice and ABO incompatibility is second commonest cause of pathological jaundice. Pre-term and low birth weight babies were having higher levels of serum total bilirubin but the difference was not significant (P >0.05). The rise in serum bilirubin level was found to be more in pathological jaundice as compare to physiological jaundice. Difference was significant statistically with p value of <0.05.Conclusions: Most of the cases were having physiological jaundice although septicemia and ABO-Rh incompatibility were not exceptional. Peak serum bilirubin levels were found to be more among the pathological jaundice. Also, prematurity and low birth weight were having higher levels of serum bilirubin. Special care must be given to them in order to avoid future complications of hyperbilirubinemia.

Abstract:
In hierdie studie word die etiologiese verband tussen verstadigde neurologiese integrasie en latere leerproblematiek by kinders met klinies betekenisvolle neonatale bilirubienmetings ondersoek. Resente navorsing dui aan dat kinders met klinies betekenisvolle bilirubienmetings tydens die neonatale fase ‘n groter risiko loop om later verstadigde neurologiese integrasie te vertoon, veral weens die kwesbaarheid van die neonatale brein vir toksiene. Hierdie navorsingsresultate suggereer ‘n verband tussen klinies betekenisvolle neonatale bilirubienmetings en latere leerproblematiek, aangesien spesifieke breinareas wat deur neonatale bilirubien aangetas word ook vaardighede medieer wat belangrik is vir prestasie in sekere leerareas, te wete lees, skryf en reken. Neonatale fisiologiese geelsug is nie altyd met die blote oog sigbaar nie, en derhalwe word simptome soos oormatige slaperigheid en ingekorte behoefte aan voeding dikwels deur onervare moeders geïgnoreer, omdat die baba nie opmerklik “geel” is nie. Verder word neonatale fisiologiese geelsug nie altyd as sodanig gediagnoseer nie, weens verskeie faktore soos ontoereikende primêre gesondheidsorgdienste op die afgeleë platteland, tuisgeboortes en vroeë ontslag van moeders en babas uit klinieke en hospitale, veral gesien in die lig daarvan dat neonatale geelsug piekvlak tussen dag drie en dag sewe bereik. Bilirubienmeting is nie standaard prosedure by afgeleë klinieke nie, en waar ‘n rowwe skatting deur die klinieksuster op ‘n klinies betekenisvolle bilirubientelling dui, word moeders dan dikwels aangeraai om natuurlike fototerapie (sonlig) toe te pas. Verdermeer vind opvolgkonsultasies by ‘n klinieksuster dikwels eers plaas nadat die baba ongeveer een maand oud is, en voorligting aan die moeder rakende moontlike kwesbaarhede wat verband hou met klinies betekenisvolle neonatale bilirubienmetings is gebrekkig. Sodanige ouers kan dus heeltemal onbewus wees van die potensiële skade wat aangerig kan word aan die ontwikkelende brein, en intervensie vind gevolglik nie tydig plaas nie. Betekenisvolle duidinge wat uit hierdie navorsingsprojek mag voortvloei, kan derhalwe benut word ten einde spesifieke kwesbaarhede in kinders met klinies betekenisvolle neonatale bilirubienmetings tydig te kan identifiseer; en hoë-risiko leerders se moontlike latere leerproblematiek deur tydige intervensie tydens die voorskoolse jare te ondervang, voordat pobleme in die grondslagfase manifesteer. ‘n Empiriese ondersoek is uitgevoer waarby 37 deelnemers betrek is. Gebaseer op die resultate van die data-analise en interpretasie van die resultate word die hipotese aanvaar. Relevante aanbevelings met betrekking to praktykverbetering en verdere navorsing word gemaak. ENGLISH: With this study the etiological link between delayed neurological integration, high neonatal bilirubin measures and learning difficulties were investigated. Recent research findings suggest that children with high neonatal bilirubin measures are at a greater risk for delayed neurological integration later on, especially because of the susceptibility of the neonatal brain for toxins. The results of this research project suggest an etiological link between neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and learning difficulties at a later stage, since specific brain-areas which are affected by the bilirubin do mediate skills important for performance in certain learning areas, e.g. reading, writing and arithmetic. It is not always possible to notice neonatal physiological jaundice; hence, inexperienced mothers tend to ignore symptoms like sleepiness and lack of appetite, merely because their babies do not appear “yellowish”. Neonatal physiological jaundice is often misdiagnosed due to various factors like inadequate primary health care services in rural areas, home births and early discharge from hospitals - particularly in light of the fact that jaundice peaks between day three and day seven after birth. Measurement of neonatal bilirubin levels is not a standard procedure at rural clinics, and mothers are often advised to make use of natural phototherapy (sunlight) when the baby appears “yellowish”. Follow-up consultation often occurs when the baby is already one month old; hence mothers often receive inadequate information concerning neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Parents might therefore be totally unaware of the potential vulnerability and harm to the developing brain, and intervention often does not take place. Significant indicators of this research project can be used to identify well in advance specific vulnerabilities in learners with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, as well as potentially high-risk learners during the pre-school years, before such vulnerabilities escalate during the foundation phase. An empirical study with 37 participants was conducted. Based on the data analyses and interpretation of the results, the hypothesis was accepted. Relevant recommendations concerning best practice and further research were done.<br>Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2008.<br>Educational Psychology<br>unrestricted

Abstract:
Hepatobiliary cancers, including liver and bile duct malignancies, present significant global health challenges. Imaging modalities such as MRI and CT are pivotal for diagnosis, while percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) aids in both diagnosis and treatment guidance under fluoroscopic control. Interventional radiology (IR) plays a crucial role in hepatobiliary cancers across diagnostic, palliative, and therapeutic domains. Diagnostic Interventional Radiology: In IR diagnostics, imaging modalities like CT, MRI, and ultrasound are employed to characterize liver lesions and guide biopsies. Fine needle biopsy, utilizing a 21-25 gauge needle, offers rapid, cost-effective sampling with low complication rates. Core biopsy, using a 16-18 gauge tru-cut system, provides more detailed pathological information despite slightly higher risks. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) assists in visualizing bile duct involvement and obtaining biopsies when endoscopic access is inadequate. Palliative Interventional Radiology: For palliation in obstructive jaundice from biliary obstructions (often due to malignancies), procedures aim to restore bile flow using endoscopic or percutaneous drainage. Biliary stenting may follow drainage, with self-expanding metallic stents preferred for durability and efficacy. These interventions improve quality of life by alleviating symptoms and preparing patients for further treatment. Therapeutic Interventional Radiology: Thermal ablation techniques like radiofrequency (RFA), microwave (MWA), and cryoablation (CrA) offer curative options for liver tumors ≤5 cm, sparing healthy tissue and minimizing complications. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and transarterial radioembolization (TARE) target tumors via hepatic artery access, delivering chemotherapy or radiation internally to enhance efficacy and reduce systemic side effects. Conclusion: Interventional radiology serves as an essential adjunct to traditional oncological approaches in hepatobiliary cancers, offering diagnostic clarity, palliative relief, and curative treatment options. Advancements in IR techniques continue to expand therapeutic possibilities, improving outcomes and quality of life for patients worldwide.

Abstract:
Hyperbilirubinemia or jaundice refers to excessive levels of bilirubin in the serum of newborn infants. It is of interest to developmentalists, since serum bilirubin can cross the blood–brain barrier and, in high levels, may cause brain damage, particularly in the globus pallidus, substantia nigra reticulata, subthalamic nucleus, brainstem auditory structures (vestibular and cochlear), oculomotor nuclei, the hippocampus, and the cerebellum. Very high levels of bilirubin can cause the classic acute and chronic bilirubin encephalopathies. Controversy exists as to whether lower levels cause minor neurological, cognitive, or behavioral deficits. Hyperbilirubinemia develops in neonates primarily due to their physiologic immaturity, although other conditions and factors may play a role. Bilirubin is a yellow pigment that results from the breakdown of hemoglobin from red blood cells. In routine clinical practice, bilirubin is measured as total serum bilirubin (TSB). Many healthy full-term infants develop a mild degree of jaundice usually termed “physiologic” jaundice or jaundice not attributable to pathologic factors or disease. The number and rate of breakdown of red cells is higher in the newborn and leads to an increased release of bilirubin to the circulation. The newborn’s liver has reduced capacity to take up bilirubin due to immaturity. Additionally, loss of water in combination with reduced intake of fluid prior to establishment of breast feeding may make the infant jaundiced because of dehydration (Stevenson et al. 2004). Although most neonatal jaundice is physiologic, Table 33.2 lists some of the more common ‘‘pathologic’’ mechanisms causing jaundice in newborns (Stevenson et al. 2004). In actuality, all healthy, full-term infants develop some level of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia as a consequence of physiological immaturity in metabolizing bilirubin, mild dehydration, and/or factors in the breast milk (if they are breast-feeding) (Davidson 1941; Maisels et al. 1986). Clinical jaundice is visible at serum bilirubin levels of approximately 5–7 mg/dL, and approximately 50% (Palmer and Mujsce 2001) of all normal newborns appear jaundiced during the first week of life.

Abstract:
Abstract Exposure of the mother during pregnancy or of the child after birth to any type of toxin may result in acute or chronic intoxication of the fetus and various forms of short- and long-term impairment during childhood. One example of an intoxication during pregnancy is toxemia of pregnancy (gestosis), which is presumed to result from a variety of pathological conditions. These are essentially metabolic disturbances in the mother that may cause nausea, vomiting, gastric pains, headache, hypertension and edema (pre-eclampsia), and sudden convulsions and even coma (eclampsia).Another maternal intoxication, neonatal jaundice (hyperbilirubinemia, kernicterus), occurs because of blood type incompatibility between the mother and fetus. Other intoxications by environmental pollutants, such as carbon monoxide, DDT, mercury, lead, arsenic, quinine and so on, were described in Chapter 8 as they relate to critical periods of gestation. The thalidomide tragedy focused attention on intoxication with prescribed and nonprescribed drugs (Stimmel 1982), including the use of multiple antiepileptics (Dodson 1989), barbiturates, and psychotropic drugs (Boer and Swaab 1985). The fetal alcohol syndrome and the teratogenic effects of smoking during pregnancy also have been studied in detail. Although many of these effects have been known for a long time, it was usually assumed that the placenta functioned as a protective barrier and that all potentially toxic material would be filtered out.
