Postpartum Depression and Maternity Blues in Immigrants

, 2012
A number of studies identify significantly elevated levels of psychological distress among immigrants than non-immigrant population (Mirsky, 2008, Taloyan et al, 2008). International migration has been characterized as a stressful life-event that causes an overburdening of the ‘psychosomatic adjustment capacity’, leading to higher emotional distress ...

Insights into ANKRD11‐related epilepsy from 163 people

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Ankyrin repeat domain 11 gene (ANKRD11) is the key disease gene for autosomal dominant KBG syndrome, and a subset of affected individuals develop epilepsy. However, comprehensive characterization of epilepsy‐related phenotypes and genotype–phenotype correlations in ANKRD11 variant carriers remains limited.

Timing is everything: The effect of early‐life seizures on developing neuronal circuits subserving spatial memory

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus‐dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents.

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Neonatal seizures and GABAergic drugs: Scylla and Charybdis?

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Neonates have a high incidence of seizures that are frequently difficult to control with conventional first‐line anti‐seizure medications, which are gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists. The reasons for this clinical problem are multifold but are likely related to the unique physiology of the immature nervous system. Specifically, the early

Triggered Calcium Lightning Programs Cochlear Development

Exploration, EarlyView.
Summary: Before the onset of hearing, the developing inner ear generates spontaneous calcium signals that are thought to guide maturation. In this study, we discovered a rapid and widespread calcium flash—dubbed “Ca2+ lightning”—originating from supporting cells beneath the sensory hair cells, which triggers coordinated calcium waves across the entire ...

Health and Economic Impacts of an Early Labor Induction Policy for High‐BMI Mothers

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We expand the literature on marginal returns to birth interventions by studying a common intervention: early induction of labor for a growing share of pregnancies, high‐Body Mass Index (BMI) women. We exploit Danish guidelines which recommend routine induction at 7 days after the expected due date instead of 10–13 days after for mothers with a

Prevalence and risk factors for postpartum depression and stress among mothers of preterm and low birthweight infants admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit in Accra, Ghana

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 131-137, April 2025.
Abstract To determine the prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) and postpartum stress (PPS) and identify associated risk factors among mothers of preterm and low birth weight (LBW) infants. We conducted a secondary analysis of data collected from 255 mothers with preterm and LBW infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at Korle ...

MicroRNA‐210 level as a biomarker for pre‐eclampsia severity: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Pre‐eclampsia is a serious pregnancy‐related syndrome lacking accurate prognostic markers. MicroRNA‐210, overexpressed in the circulation of women with pre‐eclampsia, has recently emerged as a promising biomarker. Objectives We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis to evaluate the relationship between miR‐210 levels and ...
