1100A Acute Para-infectious Neurologic Disorders<br />
ASPR Symposium~Korbel 4A<br />
Target Audience: <strong>Pediatric</strong>ians and pediatric neurologists who treat children<br />
with convulsion and/or coma.<br />
Objective:<br />
- To provide participants with practical knowledge on the classification,<br />
diagnosis and treatment of acute encephalitis and encephalopathy, as well as<br />
interest in the vigorous research activity in this field<br />
Chairs: Masashi Mizuguchi, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan and Derek<br />
Neilson, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, OH<br />
Acute encephalitis and encephalopathy are the most serious complications of<br />
pediatric viral infections, such as influenza and exanthem subitum. Recently, new<br />
syndromes of acute encephalitis and encephalopathy have been established, and<br />
their pathogenetic mechanism has been elucidated. New methods of diagnosis<br />
and treatment have been introduced. Genetic background has been identified for<br />
some syndromes. This session deals with the cutting edge of clinical, laboratory,<br />
radiologic and genetic studies on acute encephalitis and encephalopathy.<br />

1105 Advances in <strong>Pediatric</strong> Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic<br />
Disease<br />
PAS Topic Symposium~Korbel 2C<br />
Target Audience: Scientists and clinicians practicing general pediatrics,<br />
adolescent medicine, immunology, gastroenterology, endocrinology, genetics<br />
and nutrition.<br />
Objective:<br />
- Understand the mechanisms of injury in autoimmune liver and pancreatic<br />
disease, evalutate children and adolescents at risk for NAFLD and review<br />
injury causing mechanisms, discuss disease specific diagnosis and pathology<br />
in metabolic liver disease<br />

Cincinnati, OH and Judith O’Connor, University of Arkansas, Arkansas<br />
Children’s Hospital, Little Rock, AR<br />
Liver disease in children results from many causes that include infectious,<br />
inflammatory, metabolic, and drug and toxin induced. Metabolic causes can<br />
result from a single gene defect or as a genetic susceptibility induced by a<br />
trigger such a drug or a metabolic derangement associated with visceral obesity<br />
(Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease/NAFALD). Taken individually single gene<br />
defects are rare but account for up to 10% of pediatric liver transplantations.<br />
NAFALD and associated NASH (Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis) is a world wide<br />
problem of childhood and is the most common cause of liver disease in the<br />
age group. Inflammatory disorders such as autoimmune hepatitis, sclerosing<br />
cholangitis and autoimmune pancreatitis are chronic disorders resulting from<br />
immune dysregulation. This course will review and discuss mechanisms of liver<br />
injury, diagnosis and treatment of common causes of liver disease in children<br />
and adolescents.<br />
