Steroid-Induced Osteoporosis in the Pediatric Population - Canadian Incidence Study

Steroid-Induced Osteoporosis in the Pediatric Population - Canadian Incidence Study (STOPP-CIS)

We will determine the magnitude and rate of total body, hip and lumbar spine bone mass deficits following initiation of glucocorticoid therapy, in relation to glucocorticoid dose and duration, among children with leukemia, rheumatic conditions and nephrotic syndrome. The longitudinal pattern of deficits (or gains) in bone mass will be determined for each disease state by plotting bone mass measurements taken at 6 month intervals throughout the study, with an additional 3 month measurement being recorded for patients with nephrotic syndrome.

To identify whether a glucocorticoid threshold dose exists for each of the three disease categories, above which significant deficits in bone mass are likely to occur.

To assess the frequency of atraumatic fractures in relation to glucocorticoid dose and duration for each of the three chronic illnesses.

To determine the fracture risk associated with a given reduction in bone mass from baseline, for each of the three chronic diseases.

To determine the magnitude of bone mass restitution when glucocorticoid therapy is withdrawn, and to evaluate whether recovery is age- and/or pubertal stage-dependent.

To investigate the relationship between handedness and lateralization of bone density.

An Investigation Into The Potential Roles Of Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide And Substance P In The Pathophysiology Of Plastic Bronchitis And Protein Losing Enteropathy In Children With Palliated Single Ventricle Physiology

It is anticipated that results will demonstrate significant differences in venous, arterial and /or transpulmonary levels of VIP, Substance P or both among the various subject groups reflecting etiologic factors in the development of PLE and PB in patients with Fontan physiology.

Participants (Cohort 1) received rabies vaccine at Month 0 and placebo at 6 and 12 months. Participants (Cohort 2) received placebo at 0, 6, and 12 months.

Participants (both Cohort 1 and 2) received 3 injections of the CYD Dengue vaccine, 1 Inj. each at 0, 6 months, and 12 months.

Symptomatic VCD cases were defined as acute febrile illness with fever lasting for at least 1 day (temperature >= 37.5 degree Celsius (°C) measured at least twice with an interval of at least 4 hours), confirmed by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and/or dengue non-structural protein-1 (NS1) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay antigen test, and occurring more than 28 days after the third injection. Vaccine efficacy was reported as density incidence (cases/100 person-years at risk). Density incidence was defined as the number of VCD cases divided by the cumulative person-years at risk.

Participants (both Cohort 1 and 2) received 3 injections of the CYD Dengue vaccine, 1 Inj. each at 0, 6, and 12 months.

Number of Symptomatic Virologically-Confirmed Dengue (VCD) Cases During the Active Phase Post-dose 3 Following Inj. With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

The severity of VCD cases was assessed by WHO 1999 severity assessment and IDMC clinical assessment. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) Grade I, II, III, and IV : Clinical Manifestations: a) Fever: acute onset, high and continuous, lasting 2-7 days, b) Any of hemorrhagic manifestations: petechiae, purpura, ecchymosis, epistaxis, gum bleeding, and hematemesis and/or melena, c) thrombocytopenia (platelet count=100 000/mm3 or less) d) Plasma leakage as shown by hemoconcentration (hematocrit increased by 20% or more) or pleural effusion and/or hypoalbuminemia. IDMC severity criteria: 1) Thrombocytopenia: platelet count <= 50 000/mm^3; 2) Hemorrhage that needs blood transfusion; 3) Objective evidence of capillary permeability 4) Signs of circulatory failure; 5) Visceral Manifestations. Vaccine efficacy was reported as density incidence (cases/100 person-years at risk). Density incidence was defined as the number of VCD cases divided by the cumulative person-years at risk.

Number of Severe VCD Cases During the Active Phase Post-dose 3 Following Inj. With Either CYD Dengue Vaccine or a Placebo

Symptomatic VCD cases were defined as acute febrile illness with fever lasting for at least 1 day (temperature >= 37.5°C measured at least twice with an interval of at least 4 hours), confirmed by dengue reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and/or dengue NS1 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay antigen test, and occurring more than 28 days after the third injection. Vaccine efficacy was reported as density incidence (cases/100 person-years at risk). Density incidence was defined as the number of VCD cases divided by the cumulative person-years at risk.

The observer-blind design was chosen since the products have different appearances and could be recognized. The person who performed vaccinations knew which product was administered while neither the participant nor the Investigator in charge of safety evaluation knew which product was injected. To maintain the blind and minimize the potential bias, the control group used the same route and schedule as the study vaccine.
