Motor pathway injury in patients with periventricular leucomalacia and spastic diplegia [PDF]
Periventricular leucomalacia has long been investigated as a leading cause of motor and cognitive dysfunction in patients with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. However, patients with periventricular leucomalacia on conventional magnetic resonance imaging do not always have motor dysfunction and preterm children without neurological abnormalities may ...

Motor Pathway Injury with Periventricular Leukomalacia and Spastic Diplegia
The relationship between motor pathway injury and motor impairment was investigated by voxelwise correlation analysis in 43 patients (median age 12 years) with periventricular leucomalacia and spastic diplegia at Yonsei University College of Medicine ...

Nystagmus in periventricular leucomalacia [PDF]
Periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) is a lesion in the immature brain involving the optic radiation. Children with PVL have visual problems including crowding, visual field defects, strabismus, and visual perceptual/cognitive deficits, together with nystagmus.

Biallelic COL4A2 Variants Associated With Brain Small Vessel Disease and Brain Malformations. [PDF]
Biallelic COL4A2 variants cause a spectrum of brain abnormalities such as brain small vessel disease (BSVD). We describe two cases—one with cerebrovascular disruption and one with cortical malformations—expanding the recessive phenotype. Protein modeling reveals destabilization by p.(Arg179Cys), reinforcing its pathogenic role and highlighting collagen

Providing very low-birth-weight infants with fast enteral feeding reduced how long they needed a central venous catheter. [PDF]
Abstract Aim To determine the impact of the protocol change from slow to fast enteral feeding progression on duration of central venous catheter placement, and the rates of late‐onset sepsis and necrotising enterocolitis. Methods We compared the evolution of all very low‐birth‐weight infants admitted on their first postnatal day in neonatal intensive ...

Correlation of Transcutaneous pCO<sub>2</sub> and Capillary pCO<sub>2</sub> in Newborn Patients Depending on Gestational Age: A Secondary Data Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Transcutaneous monitoring of CO2 partial pressure (tcpCO2) provides continuous information about the CO2 partial pressure in the blood (pCO2). However, the deviation of tcpCO2 from pCO2 is variable. Our aim was to assess whether this deviation depends on gestational age in the first postnatal week.

Adverse outcomes after red blood cell transfusion in very low birth weight infants in a resource-restricted hospital. [PDF]
Abstract Background Red blood cell transfusions (RBCTs) in preterm infants are associated with various adverse outcomes including transfusion‐associated necrotizing enterocolitis (TANEC) and transfusion‐related late‐onset sepsis (TR‐LOS). This study aimed to determine the adverse outcomes of RBCTs in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) at a resource ...
