    Abstract (1) Introduction: This pilot study aimed to analyze neurofilament light chain levels in cerebrospinal fluid (cNfL) in a cohort of children with different acute nontraumatic neurological conditions. (2) Methods: This prospective observational cohort study consisted of 35 children aged 3 months to 17 years and was performed from November 2017 to December 2019. Patients' clinical data were reviewed, and patients were assigned to the following groups:

    Abstract Background/objective: Serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) is a specific biomarker of neuronal damage. Elevated sNfL levels have been reported in numerous neurologic diseases in adults, whereas data on sNfL in the pediatric population are incomplete. The aim of this study was to investigate sNfL levels in children with various acute and chronic neurologic disorders and describe the age dependence of sNfL from infancy to adolescence.
    Methods: The total study cohort of this prospective cross-sectional study consisted of 222 children aged from 0 to 17 years. Patients' clinical data were reviewed and patients were assigned to the following groups: 101 (45.5%) controls, 34 (15.3%) febrile controls, 23 (10.4%) acute neurologic conditions (meningitis, facial nerve palsy, traumatic brain injury, or shunt dysfunction in hydrocephalus), 37 (16.7%) febrile seizures, 6 (2.7%) epileptic seizures, 18 (8.1%) chronic neurologic conditions (autism, cerebral palsy, inborn mitochondrial disorder, intracranial hypertension, spina bifida, or chromosomal abnormalities), and 3 (1.4%) severe systemic disease. sNfL levels were measured using a sensitive single-molecule array assay.
    Results: There were no significant differences in sNfL levels between controls, febrile controls, febrile seizures, epileptic seizures, acute neurologic conditions, and chronic neurologic conditions. In children with severe systemic disorders, by far the highest NfL levels were found with an sNfL of 429 pg/ml in a patient with neuroblastoma, 126 pg/ml in a patient with cranial nerve palsy and pharyngeal Burkitt's lymphoma, and 42 pg/ml in a child with renal transplant rejection. The relationship between sNfL and age could be described by a second order polynomial with an R
    Conclusions: In this study cohort, sNfL levels were not elevated in children with febrile or epileptic seizures, or various other neurologic diseases. Strikingly high sNfL levels were detected in children with oncologic disease or transplant rejection. A biphasic sNfL age-dependency was documented, with highest levels in infancy and late adolescence and the lowest levels in middle school age.

    Abstract Background: Previous studies in children with innocent murmurs have shown that parental concern is common. Our aim was to assess the level of anxiety among parents of children referred for cardiology evaluation because of an innocent heart murmur and investigate their perceptions about innocent murmurs.
    Methods: A questionnaire was completed by parents before and after consultation. The questionnaire included a six-item short form of the state scale of the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. After the echocardiogram, a detailed consultation was offered including a thorough explanation that the results were normal, as well as a written report.
    Results: A total of 417 questionnaires were completed by parents of 340 children. Almost half of the parents believed that a heart murmur signifies heart disease or may interfere with child's ability to exercise; 21% of them stated that the siblings should also be investigated irrespective of the presence of a murmur. The mean Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory questionnaire score before pediatric cardiology consultation was 17.1 ± 4.3 and increased to 22.6 ± 2.8 after the consultation (Wilcoxon P < 0.001).
    Conclusions: Parents of infants and children with innocent murmurs exhibit moderate levels of anxiety and this condition can be ameliorated significantly after pediatric cardiology consultation. Focused parental education is of paramount importance and the role of pediatric cardiologists is crucial and decisive.
