OBJECTIVE: To characterize the dosing and safety of off-label caffeine citrate in a contemporary cohort of extremely premature infants. STUDY DESIGN: We used electronic health records (2010-2013) from 4 neonatal intensive care units to identify infants of ≤28 weeks of gestational age exposed to caffeine citrate. Safety outcomes included death, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, necrotizing enterocolitis, spontaneous intestinal perforation, intraventricular hemorrhage, patent ductus arteriosus ligation, seizures, and arrhythmias...

The lifetime risk for adrenal insufficiency in male children with adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is estimated at 80%-86%. Prior to newborn screening, male children with ALD were identified by family history or after symptom development. These young patients with ALD and adrenal insufficiency support newborn screening for ALD.

OBJECTIVE: To improve time of surfactant administration with a surfactant replacement protocol based on semiquantitative lung ultrasound score (LUS) thresholds. STUDY DESIGN: Quality improvement (QI), prospective, before-after, pilot study. In a 6-month period surfactant replacement was based only on inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2 ) thresholds. In the second 6-month period, surfactant was given when either the FiO2 or LUS exceeded the limits. The main QI measures were the proportion of neonates receiving surfactant within the first 3 hours of life and maximal FiO2 reached before surfactant replacement...

Meconium ileus is caused by cystic fibrosis; however, mutations in the GUCY2C gene also cause this disease. We report non-cystic fibrosis meconium ileus in an infant of non-Middle Eastern origin with compound heterozygous mutations in GUCY2C.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether maternal and paternal exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) has an association with offspring healthcare use by 2 years of age. STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study was performed on 454 patients at a large suburban pediatric primary care practice whose mother (n = 374) or father (n = 156) or both (n = 123) completed an ACE survey between October 2012 and June 2014. The association between self-reported parental ACEs and healthcare use by 2 years of age, including number of missed well-child visits, sick visits, and delayed or missed immunizations, was modeled using multivariable negative binomial regression...

OBJECTIVE: To compare social connectedness factors that facilitate use of primary, dental, and mental healthcare services among transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) and cisgender adolescents. METHODS: Data from the cross-sectional 2016 Minnesota Student Survey were used to examine protective social connectedness factors associated with use of different healthcare services among matched samples of 1916 TGNC and 1916 cisgender youth. Stratified, logistic regression analyses were used to examine background characteristics and social connectedness factors (parent connectedness, connections to other nonparental adults, teacher-student relationships, and friend connections) associated with use of each healthcare service within the last year...

Long-term survivors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia develop chronic obstructive lung disease. Herein we report in vivo histopathology from bronchial biopsies of 3 adolescent survivors of severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Thickened basement membranes with lymphocytic infiltrates and signs of immature neoangiogenesis in the absence of T-helper lymphocytes or eosinophils suggest the presence of an ongoing active airway process.

OBJECTIVES: To examine elevated neonatal inflammatory and neurotrophic proteins from children born extremely preterm in relation to later childhood brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging volumes and cognition. STUDY DESIGN: We measured circulating inflammation-related proteins and neurotrophic proteins on postnatal days 1, 7, and 14 in 166 children at 10 years of age (73 males; 93 females). Top quartile levels on ≥2 days for ≥3 inflammation-related proteins and for ≥4 neurotrophic proteins defined exposure...

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the long-term impact of birth weight (BW) on thyroid function in genetically identical twins with intra-twin BW differences from birth to adolescence. STUDY DESIGN: In total, 52 monozygotic twin pairs underwent at least one analysis of thyroid function at mean ages of 10.1 years (27 pairs), 15.1 years (35 pairs), and 17.4 years (36 pairs); 18 pairs donated blood at all time points. BW difference of <1 SDS was defined as concordant, BW difference ≥1 SDS as discordant...

OBJECTIVE: To identify predictors of and factors associated with the performance of antireflux surgery during the first year of life in children born with esophageal atresia. STUDY DESIGN: All patients were included in a French registry for esophageal atresia. All 38 multidisciplinary French centers completed questionnaires about perinatal characteristics and one-year outcome for children born with esophageal atresia. RESULTS: Of 835 infants with esophageal atresia born in France from 2010 to 2014, 682 patients, excluding those with long-gap esophageal atresia, were included...

OBJECTIVE: To quantify the risk of repeat concussions for children and identify demographic and clinical aspects of the index concussion associated with repeat injury. STUDY DESIGN: For this retrospective cohort study, we queried the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia healthcare network's unified electronic health record to identify all 5- to 15-year-old patients who had their first clinical visit for an index concussion at a Children's Hospital of Philadelphia location from July 2012 through June 2013...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the hypothesis that metabolic measures (fasting glucose, insulin, and Homeostatic Model of Assessment for Insulin Resistance [HOMA-IR] levels) are inversely associated with performance on cognitive tasks using data from young (4- to 6-year-old), typically developing, healthy children. STUDY DESIGN: Data were obtained from children participating in the Healthy Start study, a pre-birth cohort in Colorado. HOMA-IR, glucose, and insulin values were centered and scaled using the study sample means and SD...

OBJECTIVE: To compare mothers' own milk (MOM) consumption by infants born extremely preterm before and after implementation of a donor human milk (DHM) program and determine healthcare provider's knowledge and practices regarding DHM. STUDY DESIGN: One hundred fifty-seven infants born at <30 weeks of gestation were enrolled during 3 time-periods. Group 1: before DHM program implementation, Group 2: the year following implementation, and Group 3: the second year after implementation...
