BACKGROUND: The neonatal mortality rate is a main indicator of the health and development of a country. Having insight into the cause of neonatal deaths may be the first step to reducing it. This paper depicts the cause of newborn deaths in Iran. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was performed on data from the national Iranian Maternal And Neonatal network to investigate all neonatal deaths in the country during the year 2019. The cause of death data were reported according to categories of birth weight, gestational age (GA), death time and place...

BACKGROUND: Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) modalities minimize the requirement for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in preterm neonates, therefore improving neonatal outcomes, as IMV is linked to increased complications. However, NIV has demonstrated an elevated likelihood of failure, for which various studies have been done, but very little research is available addressing the factors that are responsible for NIV failure in resource-limited areas of developing nations. Understanding the underlying factors and their association with NIV failure in very and moderately preterm neonates at a tertiary care hospital would be important in devising targeted strategies to increase NIV success and newborn outcomes...

INTRODUCTION: Robust evidence revealed the impact of antenatal corticosteroid (ACS) administration on lower mortality and short-term neonatal outcomes in singleton preterm infants. We aimed to investigate the impact of ACS therapy on morbidity and mortality in preterm twin infants. METHODS: We conducted this retrospective single-center study from to the records of twin babies of 24-30 weeks of gestation admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit. The study population was grouped based on the exposure to ACS 1-7 days before birth as received or not...

OBJECTIVE: To report pregnancy outcomes for women with kidney transplantation and investigate whether different intervals after transplantation have different effects on pregnancy outcomes. METHODS: A single-center retrospective study was performed. Based on intervals after transplantation, pregnant women with kidney transplantation are divided into two groups: intervals <5 years and ≧5 years. The maternal and neonatal outcomes were compared between the two groups...

BACKGROUND: Cesarean delivery (CD) is associated with increased maternal and neonatal morbidity compared to vaginal delivery, particularly in cases classified as emergency procedures or when there are multiple CDs. This retrospective cohort study aims to examine the incidence of maternal and neonatal complications in women with multiple CDs. METHODS: This study used data from a national perinatal database obtained from a single tertiary maternity care hospital. Women who delivered a singleton live birth after 24 weeks of gestation by CD were stratified into five groups based on the number of CDs, with the last group having five or more CDs...

BACKGROUND: Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) is a leading cause of death in premature infants. There are different clinical/ biochemical markers associated with the RDS. One of the potential biochemical markers is cortisol in cord blood. PURPOSE: This study aims to correlate cortisol levels in preterm neonates with RDS and to establish whether cord blood cortisol is a reliable predictor for RDS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective analytical study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital over nine months among fifty preterm neonates...

BACKGROUND: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a vasculoproliferative disorder of immature retina, seen in preterm babies. Multiple risk factors attribute to this condition. Our aim was to correlate the role of any early neonatal surgeries with low gestational age (GA) and birth weight (BW) on preterm babies as a risk factor on the progression of ROP. METHODS: A prospective, cohort study conducted in a hospital in South India over 3 years, including 600 babies with GA <35 weeks and BW <2500 g...

INTRODUCTION: Early targeted surfactant therapy for preterm infants is recommended but the best criteria to personalize treatment are unclear. We validate a previously published multivariate prognostic model based on gestational age (GA), lung ultrasound score (LUS), and oxygen saturation to inspire oxygen fraction ratio (SatO2/FiO2) using an independent data set. METHODS: Pragmatic, observational study in 10 Italian and Spanish NICUs, including preterm babies (250 and 336 weeks divided into 3 GA intervals) with clinical signs of respiratory distress syndrome and stabilized on CPAP...

PURPOSE: Children's Hospital of Philadelphia retinopathy of prematurity (CHOP ROP) model can be used to predict ROP, a leading cause of childhood blindness, using risk factors such as postnatal weight gain, birth weight (BW), and gestation age (GA). The purpose of this study was to determine the usefulness of the CHOP ROP for the prediction of treatable ROP. METHODS: This was a prospective observational study. Babies <34 weeks of GA, BW <2000 grams, and GA 34-36 weeks with risk factors such as respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) were included; ROP screening, follow-up, and treatment were performed based on national guidelines...

Preterm infants are at risk of hypoxia and hyperoxia because of the immaturity of their respiratory and antioxidant systems, linked to increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a single administration of the SLAB51 probiotic formula in improving oxygenation in respiratory distress syndrome (RDS)-affected premature babies, thus reducing their need for oxygen administration. Additionally, the capability of SLAB51 in activating the factor-erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2) responsible for antioxidant responses was evaluated in vitro...

Presuming that the incidence of cerebral palsy (CP) in Korea is decreasing due to medical advances, we analyzed the trends and risk factors of CP in changing circumstances. We identified all women who delivered a singleton between 2007 and 2015 using the Korea National Health Insurance (KNHI). Information on pregnancy and birth was obtained by linking the KNHI claims database and data from the national health-screening program for infants and children. The 4-years incidence of CP decreased significantly from 4...

AIM AND OBJECTIVE: To determine the efficacy of antenatal corticosteroids given in the late preterm period. METHODOLOGY: We conducted a retrospective case-control study on patients with singleton pregnancies who were at a risk of delivering in the late preterm period (34 weeks to 36 weeks 6 days). A total of 126 patients who had received antenatal corticosteroids (prenatal administration of either betamethasone or dexamethasone, minimum one dose) during the late preterm period were taken as cases, and 135 patients who had not received steroids antenatally due to various reasons, for example, who were clinically unstable, presented with active bleeding, non-reassuring foetal status that obligated an imminent delivery and those in active labour were included as controls...

Background Globally, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) has infected millions of people to date. The morbidity and mortality associated with SARS-CoV-2 are higher in diabetics than those with chronic kidney disease and in the elderly. In pregnant women, it causes an increased risk for preeclampsia/eclampsia, infections, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, maternal mortality, and preterm birth. In neonates, SARS‑CoV‑2 infection has been found to cause stillbirths, growth retardation, premature delivery, increased neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission, and need for oxygen support...

Caudal regression is a rare complex disorder impacting the formation of the caudal segment of the spine and spinal cord. We report a preterm newborn baby who was referred to us due to respiratory distress syndrome and bilateral knee contracture. A clinical examination and a radiographic skeletal survey revealed a short spinal cord with complete agenesis of the lumbar, sacrum and coccygeal spine, and hypoplastic iliac bones with bilateral knee contractures. The mother did not have diabetes. The long-term outcome is not well-known in our set-up...
