Ventilation-induced changes correlate to pulmonary vascular response and VEGF, VEGFR-1/2, and eNOS expression in the rat model of postnatal hypoxia

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2018
Neonatal asphyxia occurs due to reduction in oxygen supply to vital organs in the newborn. Rapid restoration of oxygen to the lungs after a long period of asphyxia can cause lung injury and decline of respiratory function, which result from the activity ...

Correlating Thompson score and cardiac dysfunction in neonates suffering from perinatal asphyxia – A prospective observational study

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Perinatal asphyxia continues to be a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality worldwide. It causes multiorgan failure with brain involvement as the major organ of concern (hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy). Cardiac dysfunction is also

Clinical Prediction Models for Acute Kidney Injury in Neonatology—A Systematic Review and Modelling Analysis

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects up to one‐third of neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). NICUs are highly data‐rich environments, offering opportunities to develop clinical prediction rules (CPRs) that use clinical and demographic data to estimate AKI risk.

Brain sparing in fetal growth restriction: The double‐edged sword of fetal hypoxaemia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The double‐edged sword of brain sparing. Fetal hypoxaemia triggers a coordinated adaptive response characterised by redistribution of cardiac output toward essential organs, including the brain, and a reduction in overall metabolic activity to preserve oxygen supply.
