Neglected populations: safeguarding the health of street-involved children in Ghana.

Abstract:

:Ensuring the health of street-involved children is a growing public health challenge. These children are vulnerable, neglected, and rarely a priority for basic service providers and governments. Sizable populations of street-involved children are present in major urban areas worldwide and current trends in urbanization suggest these populations will grow in the coming years. Although migration offers employment and training opportunities, the health and wellbeing of children is negatively impacted by their interactions with the streets. However, systemic barriers may also prevent these children from achieving an adequate health status. The situation of street-involved children in Ghana, West Africa will be discussed.

  • Benefits of methylated cyclodextrins in the development of midazolam pharmaceutical formulations.

    abstract::Midazolam (MDZ) is a benzodiazepine commonly administered in preanesthesia of children by oral or by sublingual routes. To mask its bitter taste and enhance its aqueous solubility, we already developed a 0.2% (w/v) MDZ oral solution containing γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD), which proves to be better accepted by children in pe...
