<p>Beta-galactosidase-1 deficiency is rare lysosomal storage disorder which is also called as GLB1 deficiency or Landing disease. It is an autosomal recessive disorder whose age of onset is usually child hood. Deficiency of beta – galatosidase enzyme due to mutations of GLB1 gene results in toxic accumulation of gangliosides in either body tissues or particularly in the central nervous system which ultimately ends up in neurovisceral, ophthalmological and dysmorphic features. The types of GM1 gangliosidosis is based on the age of onset; infantile form which is severe and rapidly progressive, a late infantile or juvenile form with onset usually from seventh month to 3 years of age accompanied with delayed motor and cognitive development and thirdly an adult or chronic form with late onset characterized by generalized dystonia. The severity of disease depends on the level of beta – galactosidase activity. Due to the wide spectrum of disease, the diagnosis may be difficult. Facial coarsening, hypertrophic gums, cherry -red macula, visceromegaly, dysostosis and psychomotor are some signs of storage disorders which may help to diagnose GM1 gangliosidosis. The confirmative diagnosis is biochemical assay of beta – galactosidase activity by molecular genetic testing. GLB1 molecular analysis can be done either by chorionic villus or amniotic cells as prenatal diagnosis. There is no specific treatment for GM1 gangliosidosis; treatment is symptomatic as well as supportive. Extremely poor prognosis found in severe infantile form.</p>Samundy KumbhakarArvind Kumar Singh

http://matjournals.co.in/index.php/JPPNN/article/view/5125
<p>Background: Caesarean section is the delivery of a baby by surgery also known as abdominal birth. Cesarean section is one of the major surgeries where both mother and a newborn can be at risk. Aims: to Estimate the pattern of cesarean complications encountered among Primiparous versus Multiparous during Puerperium. Researchdesign: A prospective study designed adopted for this study. Setting: This study was conducted in the postpartum wards of Obstetrics Department, Women's Health Center, Assiut University Hospital, Egypt. Tool: Structured interviewing questioner and follow-up sheet used for data collection Results: more than half of women in both groups had an emergency cesarean section (69.1% vs. 54.5%) with a significant statistical difference. Fetal distress was the most common indication for cesarean section in primiparous, While repeated cesarean section was at the top of the list in multigravida, Incidence of complications encountered among both group nearly equal, there were no associations between the type of Cesarean Section and postoperative complications (p=0.736) and there was no significant statistical difference between both groups as regarding to intraoperative or postoperative cesarean complications. Conclusion: There was no significance statistically difference regarding Caesarian Section Complications encountered among puerperal women either during intraoperative or postoperative among Primiparous Versus Multiparous. Recommendations: implementation of the training program for nurses to improve their knowledge and skills regarding the prevention, assessment, and management of cesarean section complications. A list of counseling hotlines or health-care centers should also be included. Nurses and childbirth educators are in an ideal situation to discuss postpartum issues.</p>Ayat M., OmarSalihSH.A.

<p>The focus of this study to evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding management and prevention of dermatitis in children among mothers in selected urban areas at Tumkur’’. Children's health incorporates the physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being of children starting from infancy through adolescence as healthy children become healthy adults. People who are responsible enough to create better lives for themselves, their communities and their countries. Improving the health of the world's children is a core UNICEF objective. Prevalence of dermatitis in children has<br>increased over the past 30 years, although the reasons for this increase are unknown. The current prevalence worldwide is estimated to be between 10.0% to 15.6%. A related inclination has been observed in India over the past 30 years. In an Indian study from Bihar in 2003, AD comprised 28.46% of the total paediatric skin diseases. The disease starts early with 35% to 60% of symptoms manifesting in the first year of life and 47% to 85% by 5 years of age.</p>Mrs. Ashwini M S2Prof. Nisha ClementDr. I. Clement

http://matjournals.co.in/index.php/JPPNN/article/view/5128
<p>Immunization is one of the most cost effective intervention to reduce burden of childhood mortality and morbidity provided used optimal and judiciously. Currently it is estimated that immunization save the lives of 3 million children a year but 2 million more lives could be saved by existing vaccines. Prevention of disease is one of the most important goals in child care, during infancy and childhood, preventive measures against certain infection diseases are available. In recent years relatively low immunization level in age group have occasioned scattered out breaks of certain diseases. For this reason nation effort is being made towards<br>improving the immunization levels of all children. Transmitted in airborne droplets when infected people sneeze or cough, rubella is an acute, usually mild viral disease traditionally affecting susceptible children and young adult’s worldwide. Rubella infection just before conception and in early pregnancy may result in miscarriage, fetal death, or congenital defects known as congenital rubella syndrome (CRS), which is characterized by multiple defects, particularly to the brain, heart, eyes, and ears. The highest risk of CRS is found in countries with high rates of susceptibility to rubella among women of childbearing age, and worldwide an estimated 110,000 babies are born with CRS every year.</p>Ms. Amrita ThapaProf. (Dr.) Mrs. Beny Susan ChackoProf. Kavimani AdavanProf. Nisha ClementDr. I.

http://matjournals.co.in/index.php/JPPNN/article/view/5123
<p>Introduction: Visually handicapped children unable to carry out normal activities because of defects of vision, including blindness the aim of the study was to evaluate levels of dependency of doing daily Living Skills and self-care capacity among Visually Impaired child Aim: To evaluate levels of dependency of doing daily Living Skills and self-care capacity among Visually Impaired child. Research design: A descriptive design was used in this study. Setting: This study was conducted in El Noor schools of visual handicap at Tanta city sample: It contains (9) class room with the total number of (86) students with visual handicap. Tools of Data collection: Two tools were used to collect the required data, 1:-Structured interview schedule and structured observational check list. The results: It was revealed that there were statistically significant difference between the total score of self-dependence in relation to the socio-demographic variables such as Age in years and Educational level Conclusion & Recommendations: There was a highly statistically significant relationship between total score of self-dependence and socio-demographic factors as regards to age, educational level and residence. This may be due to lack of mother's knowledge, lack of supervision, follow up of child and lack of motivation resources and facilities that affect children knowledge and performance. Therefore the study recommended in service training programs and workshops should be conducted for those children to improve their knowledge and performance, health education to mothers about self-care management to child and program about care of their child.</p>Samya M , HegazAyat M., OmarIntisar E., Mohamed
