Neonatal mortality in the developing world [PDF]

This paper examines age patterns and trends of early and late neonatal mortality in developing countries, using birth history data from the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS). Data quality was assessed both by examination of internal consistency and by

Reducing neonatal mortality in rural Ghana: understanding current newborn care practices and their cultural context [PDF]

Dramatic improvements have been made in child survival over the last 30 years. However, despite the gains of the child survival revolution, neonatal mortality rates have stagnated as infant and child mortality has decreased. Every year 4 million newborns

Astrocyte‐Associated ABCA1/APOE Responses Accompany Hippocampal Lipid Remodeling and Ectopic Neuronal Accumulation During Epileptogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During kainic acid‐induced epileptogenesis, astrocyte‐associated ATP‐binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) responses accompany ectopic neurons and exploratory lipid alterations. In separate cohorts, bexarotene pretreatment and treatment on days 14–21 are associated with fewer ectopic hilar neurons and lower chronic seizure

Astrocytic Ketogenesis Protects Central Nervous System Injury via CPT1A Stabilization and Epigenetic Regulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A distinct astrocyte subpopulation, enriched at the lesion border, drives CNS repair through enhanced ketone body metabolism. This process promotes neuronal survival and axonal sparing via CPT1A stabilization and H3K9bhb‐dependent epigenetic reprogramming, positioning astrocytic ketogenesis as a promising therapeutic target for tissue regeneration ...

Infant mortality in Italy: large geographic and ethnic inequalities

Italian Journal of Pediatrics
Background Neonatal and infant mortality rates are among the most significant indicators for assessing a country's healthcare and social development. This study examined the trends in neonatal, post-neonatal, and infant mortality in Italy from 2016 to ...

Macrophage GLUD1 is Essential for Redox Balance and Immune Homeostasis in Cardiac Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Excessive free radical production and dysregulated immune responses are key contributors to myocardial ischemia‐reperfusion (IR) injury. Macrophage GLUD1 activity safeguards against HIF‐1α accumulation and maladaptive responses to IR‐induced ROS production.

Suggested health services research action to achieve reduction of neonatal mortality in India [PDF]

, 2011
Despite several national programs to reduce infant mortality, India had repeatedly failed to achieve its set targets for infant mortality. There are approximately one million neonatal deaths in India each year which accounts for nearly two-thirds of the ...

Melatonin Mitigates Doxorubicin‐Induced Cardiotoxicity by Targeting the USP18/PKM2 Axis Without Compromising Antitumor Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Melatonin engages MT1/MT2 receptors to suppress STAT1‐driven USP18 upregulation, thereby redirecting PKM2 ubiquitination from K33‐linked autophagic degradation toward K27‐linked nuclear translocation. This prevents PKM2‐mediated proinflammatory gene expression in the heart, alleviating doxorubicin‐induced cardiotoxicity without compromising antitumor ...

A Novel Bioactive Component, Efoba, From Aged Garlic Targets CTSC to Suppress NET‐Driven Neuroinflammation and Ameliorate Secondary Brain Injury After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Efoba, a novel bioactive component derived from aged garlic, confers neuroprotection against intracerebral hemorrhage. It acts on microglia to suppress CTSC release, inhibits NET‐mediated neural injury, and blocks pathological microglia‐neutrophil crosstalk. This study provides a highly promising lead compound for hemorrhagic‐stroke therapy.

Systematic Cardiac Phenotyping of Patients With Copy Number Variants in the 15q11.2 Breakpoint 1 to Breakpoint 2 Region: A Retrospective Cohort Study From Nine Pediatric Cardiac Centers

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microdeletions impacting 15q11.2 breakpoint (BP) 1 to BP2, adjacent to the Prader–Willi critical region, have previously described neuropsychiatric associations, with potential low penetrance presentations of congenital heart disease (CHD) also identified.
