Annals of Neurology, 2007 AbstractIn childhood, the risk for seizures is greatest in the neonatal period. Currently used therapies have limited efficacy. Although the treatment of neonatal seizures has not significantly changed in the past several decades, there has been substantial progress in understanding developmental mechanisms that influence seizure generation and ...

Neonatal stroke in premature neonates
Seminars in Perinatology, 2021 There are many neuro-imaging studies on the presence of brain lesions in the preterm infant, using cranial ultrasound (cUS) and/or term equivalent age MRI (TEA-MRI). These studies however tend to focus on germinal matrix-intraventricular hemorrhage (GMH-IVH) and white matter injury.

Once we were bacteria… mitochondria to infinity and beyond
Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2018 Mitochondria, cytoplasmic organelles originated from endosymbiotic bacteria, can be metaphorically described using “Janus bifrons” image, due to their involvement in life, providing cellular energy and resulting essential even for stem cells, but playing

How the health-seeking behaviour of pregnant women affects neonatal outcomes: findings of system dynamics modelling in Pakistan [PDF]
, 2019 Background: Limited studies have explored how health-seeking behaviour during pregnancy through to delivery affect neonatal outcomes. We modelled health-seeking behaviour across urban and rural settings in Pakistan, where poor neonatal outcomes persist ...

Short-Term Neurodevelopmental Outcome in Term Neonates Treated with Phenobarbital versus Levetiracetam: A Single-Center Experience [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Phenobarbital (PB) has been traditionally used as the first-line treatment for neonatal seizures. More recently, levetiracetam (LEV) has been increasingly used as a promising newer antiepileptic medication for treatment of seizures in ...
