    Background: Because of the availability of molecular techniques in clinical care, acute gastroenteritis (AGE) due to norovirus has returned to importance as a causative agent of hospitalization. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical features and evolution of patients less than 16 years hospitalized for AGE associated with norovirus. Methods: Retrospective study. Clinical information of the patients attended from November 1, 2016 to February 28, 2018 by AGE with detection of norovirus (genotype I and II) in faeces by means of polymerase chain reaction with reverse transcriptase was collected. © Boletín Médico del Hospital Infantil de México

    Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a syndrome of neurological dysfunction secondary to lack of oxygenation of the brain around birth. Therapeutic hyÂpothermia has reduced neonatal mortality and neurological disability. Objectives: To describe the clinical course of neonates with HIE treated with therapeutic hypothermia for 72 hours. Material and methods: In a five-year period, twelve neonates > 34 weeks gestational age, with moderate and severe HIE were treated with therapeutic hypothermia; eight with total body hypothermia and four with selective cranial cooling. Variables recorded were: In-hospital mortality, as well as neurological conditions at hospital discharge, both clinical and those obtained from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and neurophysiological studies. Results: The twelve neonates started therapeutic hypothermia before six hours of life, maintaining it for 72 hours. Two patients died after hypothermia. Eight patients were discharged without evidence of neurological impairment. MRI was normal in five patients; three had cerebral edema and two patients had cerebral infarcts. Auditory, visual and somatosensory potentials were normal in five patients; while the rest had alterations in the auditory pathway. Conclusions: Therapeutic hypothermia by total body hypothermia or head cooling in infants with moderate and severe EHI appear to be effective in limiting neurological damage. © 2020 Sociedad Mexicana de Pediatria.
