    Abstract Neonatal seizures are associated with high morbidity and mortality, but they can be difficult to diagnose because they often present with subtle signs and symptoms. Initial management goals in the emergency department include patient stabilization, seizure cessation, and determination of the etiology; identification of life-threatening treatable causes of the seizures should be prioritized. Further management depends on the history and physical examination findings, laboratory testing results, and imaging studies. This issue reviews common presentations and causes of neonatal seizures, considerations for emergency department management, and the evidence regarding antiepileptic medications for neonates.

    Abstract Objective: Women physicians report worse work-life integration, career satisfaction, and burnout than men. No studies have evaluated work-life integration and career satisfaction in pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) or explored gender differences for these outcomes. This study aims to (1) compare work-life integration, career satisfaction, and burnout in women and men PEM physicians and (2) compare associated individual and occupational factors to distinguish modifiable factors.
    Methods: We distributed an electronic survey to assess well-being parameters in PEM physicians. We assessed career satisfaction and work-life integration with single-item measures. We used a 2-item screen to measure burnout. We performed descriptive analyses, univariate analysis to compare gender differences, and multivariate logistic regression analysis for each outcome.
    Results: Two hundred thirty-nine PEM physicians participated, yielding a response rate of 50% (57% women; age range, 30-80 years). Overall satisfaction with work-life integration was 42.9%, with 34.3% of women reporting appropriate work-life integration, compared with 55.4% of men (P = 0.001). Career satisfaction rate was 77.8%, with 71.6% of women reporting career satisfaction, compared with 86.1% of men (P = 0.008). Burnout rate was 44.5%, with 53.7% of women reporting burnout compared with 33.7% of men (P = 0.002). Modifiable factors identified include perception of unfair compensation, inadequate physical and mental health support provided by organization, feeling unappreciated, inadequate provider staffing, inadequate resources for patient care, lack of advance notice or control of work schedule, and inadequate sleep.
    Conclusions: Of PEM physicians, women have worse work-life integration, less career satisfaction, and more burnout than men. The PEM community should devote resources to modifiable occupational factors to improve gender disparities in well-being parameters.

    Abstract Objective: Women in medicine generally have higher burnout and lower career satisfaction and work-life integration compared with men. This study identifies factors that contribute to burnout, career satisfaction, and work-life integration in women pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) physicians.
    Methods: Self-identified women PEM physicians in the United States participated in a virtual focus group using Group Level Assessment methodology. Participants completed Group Level Assessment process steps of climate setting, generating, appreciating, reflecting, understanding, selecting, and action to (1) identify themes that contribute to burnout, career satisfaction, and work-life integration and (2) determine actionable factors based on these themes. Data were collected and thematically analyzed in real time through iterative processing. The group prioritized identified themes through rounds of distillation.
    Results: Seventeen women participated, representing 10 institutions (ages 30s-70s, 69% employed full-time). Participants identified 3 main themes contributing to burnout, career satisfaction, and work-life integration: (1) gender inequities, (2) supportive leadership, and (3) balance with family life. Actionable items identified were as follows: (1) development of initiatives to equalize pay, opportunity, and career advancement among genders; (2) implementation of an institutional focus on supportive and collaborative leadership; and (3) improvement of resources and supports for physicians with family responsibilities.
    Conclusions: Women PEM physicians identified gender inequities, leadership, and balance with family life as major themes affecting their burnout, career satisfaction, and work-life integration. Several action steps were identified and can be used by individuals and institutions to improve work-life integration for women PEM physicians.

    Abstract Central nervous system (CNS) involvement occurs in many pediatric systemic autoimmune diseases. These manifestations are often associated with increased morbidity and mortality and can have adverse long-term effects on neurodevelopmental, health-related, and quality-of-life outcomes. In this review, we summarize the existing literature on CNS involvement in pediatric systemic autoimmune diseases, compare diagnostic findings, and describe current treatments. CNS manifestations of pediatric systemic autoimmune disease present diagnostic and management challenges due to their relatively rare occurrence in children, the difficulty in confirming direct CNS involvement as opposed to secondary symptoms occurring as a consequence of systemic inflammation, and the need to define treatment strategies effective for CNS involvement.

    Abstract Tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) is not commonly associated in aminosalicylate-naïve patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Our case describes the initial presentation, diagnosis, and management of an adolescent presenting with TIN and underlying CD. Our case emphasizes that CD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of interstitial nephritis as not only a medication-related effect, but also as an extraintestinal manifestation of CD. We also describe successful management of undiagnosed recurring and symptomatic CD-related TIN with infliximab.
