Introduction: The diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) in newborns is a critical challenge for pediatricians, as many life-threatening conditions present with non-specific and vague clinical signs (1). Although advanced antenatal diagnostic techniques have improved detection rates, a significant number of neonates with serious heart defects

Introduction: Congenital heart disease (CHD) encompasses a range of structural cardiac malformations present at birth, varying from benign conditions to life-threatening emergencies that require immediate intervention for survival (1). Although antenatal diagnostic techniques have improved, many neonates with critical heart defects remain undiagnos

Paediatric therapeutics are undergoing a fundamental transformation. The focus is shifting from symptom management and supportive care toward molecules that intervene earlier, act more precisely, and modify disease trajectories at their biological roots. Recent advances span immune-modulating therapies that delay disease onset, mechanism-based card

Introduction Pediatric clubfoot, or congenital talipes equinovarus, is a complex deformity involving the foot’s cavus, adductus, varus, and equinus components. It affects approximately 1 in 1,000 live births and, if left untreated, can result in lifelong disability. The goal of treatment is to achieve a functional, pain-free, and plantigrade foot w

Paediatrics in 2025 highlighted the power of prevention alongside persistent system gaps. RSV immunisation strategies moved into routine infant care, while pneumonia remained a leading cause of child mortality, where early diagnosis and oxygen access lagged. Digital triage tools and immunisation recovery efforts gained momentum, reinforcing that ou
