Effect of in-line filtration in newborns: study protocol of the Intravenous Neonatal Central Access Safety (INCAS) randomized controlled trial

Trials
Background Particulate contamination due to infusion therapy (administration of parenteral nutrition and medications) carries a potential health risk for infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). This particulate consists of metals, drug crystals,

Heart Rate Variability and Respiration Signal as Diagnostic Tools for Late Onset Sepsis in Neonatal Intensive Care Units [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
Apnea-bradycardia is one of the major clinical early indicators of late-onset sepsis occurring in approximately 7% to 10% of all neonates and in more than 25% of very low birth weight infants in NICU. The objective of this paper was to determine if HRV, respiration and their relationships help to diagnose infection in premature infants via non-invasive

Cartilage‐Penetrating Framework Nucleic Acid Nanoparticles Ameliorate Osteoarthritis by Promoting Drug Delivery and Chondrocyte Uptake

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on the poor cartilage penetration of tFNA, a novel tFNA‐2WL with excellent cartilage permeability and perfect chondrocyte endocytosis properties is designed and fabricated. As a result, tFNA‐2WL has a nearly seven‐fold increase in the penetration depth into the cartilage, with the same excellent cell entry properties as tFNA.

Log-Contrast Regression with Functional Compositional Predictors: Linking Preterm Infant's Gut Microbiome Trajectories to Neurobehavioral Outcome [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) experience is known to be one of the most crucial factors that drive preterm infant's neurodevelopmental and health outcomes. It is hypothesized that stressful early life experience of very preterm neonate is imprinting gut microbiome by the regulation of the so-called brain-gut axis, and consequently, certain ...

Neuronal FGF13 Inhibits Mitochondria‐Derived Damage Signals to Prevent Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration in a Mouse Model of Parkinson's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates a novel role of FGF13 in manipulating neuronal fate via mitochondrial transfer. FGF13 is identified as a mitochondria‐stabilizing protein by interacting with mitochondrial proteins. Under stress, the decrease of neuronal FGF13 fails to retain mitochondria within the cytoplasm, leading to the release of damaged mitochondria to ...

Sex‐dependent effects of parental age on offspring fitness in a cooperatively breeding bird

Evolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 438-449, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Parental age can have considerable effects on offspring phenotypes and health. However, intergenerational effects may also have longer term effects on offspring fitness. Few studies have investigated parental age effects on offspring fitness in natural populations while also testing for sex‐ and environment‐specific effects.

An Accurate Measurement System Comprising of Wireless Thermometers for Neonate Body Temperature Monitoring [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
This paper addresses the design and implementation of a real-time monitoring system consisting of wireless thermometers for continuous recording of neonate body temperature in an intensive care unit (ICU). Each wireless thermometer incorporates an accurate semiconductor temperature sensor, a transceiver operating on ISM frequency band (i.e., 915 MHz ...

Inhibition of Heat Shock Protein 90β by Catalpol: A Potential Therapeutic Approach for Alleviating Inflammation‐Induced Cartilage Injuries in Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The schematic diagram delineates the chondroprotective effects of Ca‐bMSN in OA models. The upper portion of the diagram depicts the synthesis process of Ca‐bMSN. The lower section illustrates the post‐injection of Ca‐bMSN in joint cavity, catalpol released and subsequently mediates the reduction of oxidative stress, ECM catabolism, apoptosis, and ...

Congenital Chylothorax

The Scientific World Journal, 2009
Although pleural effusion is a rare cause of respiratory distress in newborns, being familiar with this disease is very important because of the generally favorable prognosis when the diagnosis is done early and therapy is prompt.
