British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Levofloxacin is a widely used antibiotic included in rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis (RR‐TB) treatment. Data describing levofloxacin concentrations in breastmilk and infant exposure are limited. We analysed data from two South African studies of breastfeeding women receiving levofloxacin (750–1000 mg daily) for RR‐TB.

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Aims Amoxicillin, a widely used β‐lactam antibiotic, requires improved pharmacokinetic characterization during breastfeeding. This study used a population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) approach to model amoxicillin concentrations in breast milk, identify variability sources and estimate infant exposure, applying worst‐case scenarios.

Early‐Life Clinical Factors Shape Cerebellar Structure in Preterm‐Born Children
Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Preterm birth alters typical brain development due to complex exposures related to neonatal illness, pain management, and brain injury. Despite an increased understanding of neonatal brain injury on developmental outcomes, the association of cerebellar maturation with school‐age motor and cognitive function remains incompletely ...

Fetal Pain Perception: Legislative Assertions and Developmental Neuroscience
Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Pain perception is a conscious experience, but neither pain nor consciousness is defined in the developing human fetus. Emergent consciousness may be regarded as a phenomenon that ultimately arises from an essential minimum of functional neuronal connectivity. Proposed U.S.
