Rapid whole-genome sequencing decreases infant morbidity and cost of hospitalization

npj Genomic Medicine, 2018
Genetic disorders are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in infants. Rapid whole-genome sequencing (rWGS) can diagnose genetic disorders in time to change acute medical or surgical management (clinical utility) and improve outcomes in acutely ill

Infant cognition [PDF]

Current Biology, 2010
SummaryUntil fairly recently, young infants were thought to be as cognitively incompetent as they were morally innocent. They were epistemological ‘tabulae rasae’, helpless ‘bundles of reflexes’ who spent all of their time sleeping, crying and sucking. In the famous words of William James, infants lived in “one great blooming, buzzing confusion”.

Automatic Infant Respiration Estimation from Video: A Deep Flow-based Algorithm and a Novel Public Benchmark [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Respiration is a critical vital sign for infants, and continuous respiratory monitoring is particularly important for newborns. However, neonates are sensitive and contact-based sensors present challenges in comfort, hygiene, and skin health, especially for preterm babies.

The linked survival prospects of siblings : evidence for the Indian states [PDF]

, 2008
This paper reports an analysis of micro-data for India that shows a high correlation in infant mortality among siblings. In 13 of 15 states, we identify a causal effect of infant death on the risk of infant death of the subsequent sibling (a scarring ...

Mitochondrial DNA disorders in neuromuscular diseases in diverse populations

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromuscular features are common in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders. The genetic architecture of mtDNA disorders in diverse populations is poorly understood. We analysed mtDNA variants from whole‐exome sequencing data in neuromuscular patients from South Africa, Brazil, India, Turkey and Zambia. In 998 individuals, there were two definite

Cost of illness due to respiratory syncytial virus acute lower respiratory tract infection among infants hospitalized in Argentina

BMC Public Health
Background Information is scarce regarding the economic burden of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease in low-resource settings. This study aimed to estimate the cost per episode of hospital admissions due to RSV severe disease in Argentina. Methods

Invariant Representation Learning for Infant Pose Estimation with Small Data [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Infant motion analysis is a topic with critical importance in early childhood development studies. However, while the applications of human pose estimation have become more and more broad, models trained on large-scale adult pose datasets are barely successful in estimating infant poses due to the significant differences in their body ratio and the ...

The role of negative maternal affective states and infant temperament in early interactions between infants with cleft lip and their mothers [PDF]

, 2012
OBJECTIVES: The study examined the early interaction between mothers and their infants with cleft lip, assessing the role of maternal affective state and expressiveness and differences in infant temperament.

Meta-analysis of effects of exclusive breastfeeding on infant gut microbiota across populations

Nature Communications, 2018
Previous studies on the differences in gut microbiota between exclusively breastfed (EBF) and non-EBF infants have provided highly variable results. Here we perform a meta-analysis of seven microbiome studies (1825 stool samples from 684 infants) to ...
