  • Cultural bias in the AAP's 2012 Technical Report and Policy Statement on male circumcision
  • 2013

    • The American Academy of Pediatrics recently released its new Technical Report and Policy Statement on male circumcision, concluding that current evidence indicates that the health benefits of newborn male circumcision outweigh the risks. The technical report is based on the scrutiny of a large number of complex scientific articles. Therefore, while striving for objectivity, the conclusions drawn by the 8 task force members reflect what these individual physicians perceived as trustworthy evidence. Seen from the outside, cultural bias reflecting the normality of nontherapeutic male circumcision in the United States seems obvious, and the report’s conclusions are different from those reached by physicians in other parts of the Western world, including Europe, Canada, and Australia. In this commentary, a different view is presented by non–US-based physicians and representatives of general medical associations and societies for pediatrics, pediatric surgery, and pediatric urology in Northern Europe. To these authors, only 1 of the arguments put forward by the American Academy of Pediatrics has some theoretical relevance in relation to infant male circumcision; namely, the possible protection against urinary tract infections in infant boys, which can easily be treated with antibiotics without tissue loss. The other claimed health benefits, including protection against HIV/AIDS, genital herpes, genital warts, and penile cancer, are questionable, weak, and likely to have little public health relevance in a Western context, and they do not represent compelling reasons for surgery before boys are old enough to decide for themselves.

  • Cytogenetics of hepatoblastoma: further characterization of 1q rearrangements by fluorescence in situ hybridization: an international collaborative study
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Medical and Pediatric Oncology. - 1096-911X. ; 34:3, s. 165-170
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Hepatoblastoma (HBT) is the most common hepatic neoplasm in children. This notwithstanding, little is known about pathogenetic factors, such as genetic abnormalities, of importance for the development and progression of this tumor type. To date, only 33 cytogenetically abnormal HBT have been published, and trisomies for chromosomes 2 and 20 have been shown to be the most frequent aberrations. Recently, unbalanced translocations involving proximal 1q have been described in several HBT, suggesting that a pathogenetically important gene maps to 1q. PROCEDURE: Six primary and one recurrent HBT were cytogenetically analyzed after short-term tissue culture. In addition, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies, using locus-specific probes, were performed on three of these pediatric HBT as well as on one previously reported adult HBT. RESULTS: Total or partial trisomy 8, gain of chromosome 20, and structural rearrangements of chromosome 1 were detected in three HBT, and overrepresentation of chromosome 2 material was found in two HBT. The adjacent chromosome bands 1q12 and 1q21 were involved in three translocations, t(1;2), t(1;4), and t(1;11), which were all unbalanced and resulted in gain of 1q material. The previously reported adult HBT displayed 1q deletions with breakpoints at 1q12-21. FISH analyses of the 1q rearrangements revealed that all breakpoints were within the heterochromatic region. CONCLUSIONS: These findings provide further support for the importance of trisomies 2, 8, and 20 and rearrangements of 1q in the development of HBT. Furthermore, the consistent localization of breakpoints within the heterochromatic segment of chromosome 1 suggests that the important pathogenetic consequence of 1q abnormalities is the resulting genomic imbalance rather than a specific gene rearrangement.

  • The state of research into children with cancer across Europe : new policies for a new decade
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: ecancermedicalscience. - : Ecancer Global Foundation. - 1754-6605. ; 5, s. 210-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Overcoming childhood cancers is critically dependent on the state of research. Understanding how, with whom and what the research community is doing with childhood cancers is essential for ensuring the evidence-based policies at national and European level to support children, their families and researchers. As part of the European Union funded EUROCANCERCOMS project to study and integrate cancer communications across Europe, we have carried out new research into the state of research in childhood cancers. We are very grateful for all the support we have received from colleagues in the European paediatric oncology community, and in particular from Edel Fitzgerald and Samira Essiaf from the SIOP Europe office. This report and the evidence-based policies that arise from it come at a important junction for Europe and its Member States. They provide a timely reminder that research into childhood cancers is critical and needs sustainable long-term support.
