A Calibration Device to Compare Body Plethysmographs Among Pediatric Lung Function Laboratories
Multi-center studies in specific airway resistance have shown significant inter laboratory variability. Comparison of plethysmographic equipment using a lung model easily transportable from one site to another should be of help to international normative

Abstract Objectives High protein intake during infancy has been linked to accelerated weight gain and increased obesity risk. This study aimed to examine the effects of a low‐protein formula during the first 6 months of life on blood metabolic and hormonal markers during early childhood. Methods Formula‐fed infants (<45 days) were randomized to receive

Body composition at 2 years of age in moderate and late preterm infants
Abstract Objectives Moderate and late preterm infants (MLPTI, gestational age 32 0/7–36 6/7 weeks) have altered body composition compared to term‐born infants, but data beyond infancy are lacking. This study aimed to assess body composition at 2 years corrected age for prematurity (CA) in MLPTI, compare it to the literature on term‐born infants, and ...

Evaluating Sleep Apnea: In‐Lab Versus at‐Home Recording Time and the Impact of Positional Disease
We evaluated the minimum recording time needed for in‐lab polysomnography (PSG1) and home sleep apnea test Type 3 portable monitoring (HSAT) to accurately reflect the full‐night apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) in patients with suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Effects and Correction of Patient Bulk Motion in Cranial DENSE MRI
ABSTRACT Purpose Applications of DENSE to measure cardiac driven brain tissue pulsations are highly sensitive to bulk patient motion due to the sub‐millimeter displacement encoding required, limiting its accuracy, reproducibility, and use in pediatric and aging populations.
