Perinatal asphyxia and Alzheimer's disease: is there a correlation? [PDF]
The perinatal development period is critical for the formation of brain structures responsible for cognitive functions. Disruptions during this phase, such as perinatal asphyxia, characterized by impaired gas exchange and hypoxia, can lead to long ...

Perinatal asphyxia and hypothermic treatment from the endocrine perspective [PDF]
IntroductionPerinatal asphyxia is one of the three most important causes of neonatal mortality and morbidity. Therapeutic hypothermia represents the standard treatment for infants with moderate-severe perinatal asphyxia, resulting in reduction in the ...

Prevalence of perinatal asphyxia and its associated factors among live birth in Khartoum, Sudan: a hospital-based cross-sectional study [PDF]
Background Perinatal asphyxia is one of the leading causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality in the world. While there is much published data on the epidemiology of perinatal asphyxia in African countries, there is a lack of data on this topic in Sudan,

Assessment of the urinary uric acid-to-creatinine ratio as a diagnostic marker for perinatal asphyxia in a resource-poor setting: a case control study [PDF]
Background The lack of simple but effective and affordable diagnostic tools presents a challenge for the management of perinatal asphyxia, especially in low- to middle-income countries. Current diagnostic tools, such as arterial blood gas estimation, are

Divergent epigenetic responses to perinatal asphyxia in severe mental disorders [PDF]
Epigenetic modifications influenced by environmental exposures are molecular sources of phenotypic heterogeneity found in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and may contribute to shared etiopathogenetic mechanisms of these two disorders.
