Ethical Biobanking in Extremely Preterm Infants: Lessons From the EPITOP Study
ABSTRACT Aim The Extremely Preterm Infant Target Optimise and Prevent (EPITOP) study aimed to develop an ethical and practical approach to biobanking salvaged residual blood samples from extremely preterm infants (< 28 weeks gestational age, GA) for biomarker research while minimising clinical risks and addressing ethical concerns. Methods Initiated in

Deep Learning Fundus Image Analysis for Diabetic Retinopathy and Macular Edema Grading [PDF]
Diabetes is a globally prevalent disease that can cause visible microvascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy and macular edema in the human eye retina, the images of which are today used for manual disease screening. This labor-intensive task could greatly benefit from automatic detection using deep learning technique.

Severe Neonatal Morbidity Across Gestational Age: Monitoring Infants at High Risk of Mortality
ABSTRACT Aim This study aimed to quantify temporal trends in severe neonatal morbidity (SNM) and examine its association with neonatal mortality, stratified by gestational age. Methods This study included all live births in Sweden from 2007 to 2021.

Profile of asymmetrical retinopathy of prematurity in twins
Background: In twin births, both babies have the same gestational age and pre-natal conditions. However, twins may develop a varied retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) course depending on birth weight and other systemic factors.

Improved Microaneurysm Detection using Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
In this work, we propose a novel microaneurysm (MA) detection for early diabetic retinopathy screening using color fundus images. Since MA usually the first lesions to appear as an indicator of diabetic retinopathy, accurate detection of MA is necessary for treatment.

ABSTRACT Aim To compare less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) and intubation‐surfactant‐extubation (INSURE) in infants born before 28 weeks gestational age (GA) by the need for mechanical ventilation (MV). Methods LISA was introduced in 2017 in our unit without formal prior LISA‐specific training as an equal alternative to INSURE.

Adversarial Vessel-Unveiling Semi-Supervised Segmentation for Retinopathy of Prematurity Diagnosis [PDF]
Accurate segmentation of retinal images plays a crucial role in aiding ophthalmologists in diagnosing retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and assessing its severity. However, due to their underdeveloped, thinner vessels, manual annotation in infant fundus images is very complex, and this presents challenges for fully supervised learning.
