Acute kidney injury in neonatal age

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2014
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a pathology characterized by a sudden decrease in kidney function that results in the accumulation of nitrogenous waste products and alteration of the regulation of extracellular fluid volume, electrolytes, and acid-base ...

Case Report: Unusual Neurological Features of Leigh Syndrome due to m.8993T>G Pathogenic Variant in the MT‐ATP6 Gene

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The MT‐ATP6 gene m.8993T>G pathogenic variant has been associated with Leigh syndrome, especially in patients exhibiting a high degree of heteroplasmy. Although patients may present with a wide phenotypic spectrum, characteristic findings include bilateral, symmetric hyperintensities in the basal ganglia and brainstem on brain MRI ...

Deep learning in the ultrasound evaluation of neonatal respiratory status [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Lung ultrasound imaging is reaching growing interest from the scientific community. On one side, thanks to its harmlessness and high descriptive power, this kind of diagnostic imaging has been largely adopted in sensitive applications, like the diagnosis and follow-up of preterm newborns in neonatal intensive care units. On the other side, state-of-the-

A Newly Defined, Common Ophthalmologic Condition Requires Special Neurological Attention

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
A host of acquired abnormalities in visual function are known to occur in persons who suffer stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative disorders. Cerebral visual impairment occurs in children with early neurological injury or disorders, especially neonatal hypoxic‐ischemic injury.

Prader-Willi Syndrome: an under-recognized cause of hypotonia?

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2017
The “floppy infant” is a well-recognized entity characterized by general­ized hypotonia presenting at birth or in early life. Hypotonia represents a diagnostic challenge because it may be the presentation sign of numerous diseases, as central or ...

Risk of impaired cerebellar growth in preterm infants: a prospective mastoid fontanelle ultrasound study

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2014
Objectives: Recent studies realized with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed impaired cerebellar growth in follow-up of preterm infants. Cerebellar injury may contribute to impaired motor, cognitive, language and behavioral dysfunction seen among ...

Postoperative brain volumes are associated with one-year neurodevelopmental outcome in children with severe congenital heart disease [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) remain at risk for neurodevelopmental impairment despite improved peri- and intraoperative care. Our prospective cohort study aimed to determine the relationship between perioperative brain volumes and neurodevelopmental outcome in neonates with severe CHD. Pre- and postoperative cerebral MRI was acquired in

Actin Filament Pointed Ends: Assays for Regulation of Assembly and Disassembly by Tropomodulin and Tropomyosin

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Actin filaments are dynamic polymers whose length depends on regulated monomer association and dissociation at their ends. Actin barbed‐end dynamics are relatively better understood, primarily due to the approximately tenfold faster subunit on/off rates at barbed versus pointed ends.

PDA management in preterm infants: keep your hands off the ductus!

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2014
The current management of a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants is fundamentally aimed at the closure of ductus through the cyclooxygenase (Cox)-inhibitors or surgical ligation in case of failure.
