Neonatal microglia-organized scar-free spinal cord repair
It is thought that spinal cord injury triggers scar formation with little axon regeneration in mammals1–4. Here we report that in neonatal mice, a crush injury to the spinal cord leads to a scar-free healing that permits the growth of long projecting ...

Hydranencephaly is characterized by severe dysgenesis of the cerebral hemispheres, with relative preservation of the thalamus, cerebellum and brainstem. Modern neurological imaging techniques have demonstrated that the affected regions are usually localized within the territories of the middle cerebral arteries.

A Rapid Assessment of the Quality of Neonatal Healthcare in Kilimanjaro Region, Northeast Tanzania. [PDF]
While child mortality is declining in Africa there has been no evidence of a comparable reduction in neonatal mortality. The quality of inpatient neonatal care is likely a contributing factor but data from resource limited settings are few. The objective

Mediation Analysis Supports a Causal Relationship between Maternal Hyperglycemia and Placental DNA Methylation Variations at the Leptin Gene Locus and Cord Blood Leptin Levels. [PDF]
Changes in fetal DNA methylation (DNAm) of the leptin (LEP) gene have been associated with exposure to maternal hyperglycemia, but their links with childhood obesity risk are still unclear.
