Uterine rupture is a life-threatening obstetric complication. The purpose of this study was to investigate the epidemiological features, maternal and foetal prognosis and different treatment options for uterine rupture in healthy and scarred uteri. We conducted a retrospective monocentric descriptive and analytical study of 60 cases of uterine rupture collected in the Department of Gynaecology-Obstetrics of the Center of Maternity and Neonatology, Monastir, from 2017 to 2021. Patients were classified according to the presence or absence of a uterine scar...

BACKGROUND: Early preterm (EP) born children are at risk of neurocognitive impairments persisting into adulthood. Less is known about moderately to late (MLP) preterm born children, especially after early childhood. The aim of this study was to assess neurocognitive functioning of MLP adolescents regarding intelligence, executive and attentional functioning, compared with EP and full-term (FT) adolescents. METHODS: This study was part of the Longitudinal Preterm Outcome Project (LOLLIPOP), a large community-based observational cohort study...

BACKGROUND: Inter-alpha inhibitor proteins (IAIPs) are structurally related proteins found in the systemic circulation with immunomodulatory anti-inflammatory properties. Reduced levels are found in inflammatory related conditions including sepsis and necrotizing enterocolitis, and in neonatal rodents after exposure to hypoxia ischemia. In the current study, cord blood IAIP levels were measured in neonates with and without exposure to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). METHODS: This is a prospective cohort study including infants born ≥36 weeks over a one-year period...

OBJECTIVE: Timing of administration of antibiotics and concentrations in maternal blood and the umbilical cord blood are important prerequisites for optimal intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP) of neonatal early-onset group B streptococcus (GBS) disease. This cohort study aimed to explore penicillin concentrations in mothers and infants at birth in relation to time elapsed from administration to delivery and to the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) for GBS. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Penicillin G concentrations in maternal and umbilical cord blood in relation to time and dose from administration to time of delivery...

OBJECTIVE: Identifying factors that can better predict the prognosis of neonates with hyperbilirubinemia is important. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between electroencephalography (EEG) findings and two-year prognosis in neonates with severe hyperbilirubinemia. METHODS & MATERIALS: In a cohort prospective study, we studied neonates with a total serum bilirubin level of higher than 18 mg/dL, who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of Ghaem hospital, Mashhad, Iran...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in premature newborns and is associated with high mortality. It is unclear which risk factors lead to AKI in these neonates. We aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of AKI in preterm neonates in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). They were screened and staged for AKI as per the amended neonatal criteria of Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes and followed up until discharge or death. Serum creatinine levels and urine output were measured...

INTRODUCTION: Pigs are often used to study the intestinal development of newborns, particularly as preterm pig models that mimic the intestinal growth of human preterm infants. Neonatology's study of delivery mode's impact on neonatal development is crucial. METHODS: We established 14 newborn pigs delivered via cesarean sections (C-section, at 113 days of gestational age, CS group) and 8 naturally born pigs were used as controls (at 114 days of gestational age, NF group)...

This study investigated the effects of exclusive donor milk or formula in the first 7 days after birth, on the time to full enteral feeding, growth, and morbidity of adverse events related to premature infants. This was a retrospective study carried out from July 2014 to December 2019 at the Department of Neonatology of Shanghai Children's Hospital. All infants with a birth weight < 1,500 g and a gestational age ≤ 32 who received exclusive donor milk or formula in the first 7 days after birth were included in this study...

REVIEW

Advances in neonatal medicine have allowed us to rescue extremely preterm infants. However, both long-term vulnerability and the burden of treatment in the neonatal period increase with decreasing gestational age. This raises questions about the justification of life support when a baby is born at the border of viability, and has led to a so-called "grey zone", where many professionals are unsure whether provision of life support is in the child's best interest. Despite cultural, political and economic similarities, the Scandinavian countries differ in their approach to periviable infants, as seen in their respective national guidelines and practices...

BACKGROUND: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia-associated pulmonary hypertension (BPD-PH) remains a devastating clinical complication seriously affecting the therapeutic outcome of preterm infants. Hence, early prevention and timely diagnosis prior to pathological change is the key to reducing morbidity and improving prognosis. Our primary objective is to utilize machine learning techniques to build predictive models that could accurately identify BPD infants at risk of developing PH. METHODS: The data utilized in this study were collected from neonatology departments of four tertiary-level hospitals in China...

BACKGROUND: Planned caesarean section (CS) is a risk factor for neonatal respiratory distress caused by a greater volume of airway liquid in the absence of uterine contractions.Performing a newly conceptualised knee-to-chest flexion (KCF) manoeuvre at birth, mimicking uterine contraction-induced flexion may aid in expelling excess lung liquid. OBJECTIVES: To test whether performing a KCF manoeuvre at birth is feasible in infants born after planned CS and to test whether KCF leads to visible expulsion of lung liquid...

BACKGROUND: Prechtl's General Movement Assessment (GMA) at fidgety age (3-5 months) is a widely used tool for early detection of cerebral palsy. Further to GMA classification, detailed assessment of movement patterns at fidgety age is conducted with the Motor Optimality Score-Revised (MOS-R). Inter-rater reliability and agreement are properties that inform test application and interpretation in clinical and research settings. This study aims to establish the inter-rater reliability and agreement of the GMA classification and MOS-R in a large population-based sample...

This commentary examines the future of women's health and gender-related healthcare for Women's Health Nurse Practitioners (WHNPs) within the framework of National Association of Nurse Practitioners in Women's Health's (NPWH's) mission and vision. Emphasizing the importance of addressing menopause, maternal health, and reproductive health, it discusses the significance of WHNP education, certification, and workforce contributions. Despite their critical role, challenges including recognition as maternity care providers and disseminating WHNP-specific outcomes remain...
