Evaluating predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate for adverse newborn outcomes among term‐births in northern Uganda: A cross sectional analytical study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 408-420, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Birth asphyxia is one of the leading causes of death for neonates worldwide. Lack of an objective cost effective test to predict poor newborn outcomes at birth affects the ability to respond appropriately. This study determined predictive values of umbilical cord arterial lactate in relation to adverse neonatal outcomes. Methods This

Born too early and too small: higher order cognitive function and brain at risk at ages 8–16 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Prematurity presents a risk for higher order cognitive functions. Some of these deficits manifest later in development, when these functions are expected to mature. However, the causes and consequences of prematurity are still unclear.

The association of umbilical cord blood neurofilament light with non‐reassuring fetal status: A prospective observational study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Early detection of hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in neonates is critical. We conducted a pilot cohort study to determine the feasibility of collecting umbilical cord blood samples for neurofilament light (NfL) and to assess the association of NfL with non‐reassuring fetal status and other cord biomarkers. We aimed to address (

Prevalence of perinatal asphyxia and its associated factors among live birth in Khartoum, Sudan: a hospital-based cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics
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,

Neuroprotective effect of 3,3’-Diindolylmethane against perinatal asphyxia involves inhibition of the AhR and NMDA signaling and hypermethylation of specific genes

open access: yesApoptosis, 2020
Each year, 1 million children die due to perinatal asphyxia; however, there are no effective drugs to protect the neonatal brain against hypoxic/ischemic damage.

Risk factors associated with the development of perinatal asphyxia in neonates at the Hospital Universitario del Valle, Cali, Colombia, 2010-2011

open access: yesBiomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2017
Introduction: Perinatal asphyxia is one of the main causes of perinatal mortality and morbidity worldwide and it generates high costs for health systems; however, it has modifiable risk factors. Objective: To identify the risk factors associated with the
