Immaturity of Oculomotor Capabilities During a Reading Task in Children Born Prematurely: An Eye Tracker Study.

To our knowledge, there are no studies recording the reading eye movements of children born prematurely. We examined the oculomotor patterns during reading of 23 children born prematurely ( age = 7.8, = 0.

Treatment outside the Recommended Guidelines for Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP): Prevalence, Characteristics, and Issues.

This study aims to assess the prevalence and characteristics of preterm infants with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) treated outside the recommended guidelines. In this retrospective monocentric cohort, we included all premature children treated in our department for ROP by laser photoablation or anti-VEGF intravitreal injection. The main outcome was treatment of both eyes for ROP less severe than pre-threshold type 1, treated outside ETROP guidelines.

Immature brain structures were associated with poorer eye movement performance at 8 years of age in preterm born children.

Aim: Eye movements have rarely been explored in preterm born children. The aim of this study was to compare horizontal eye movements in children born preterm and full term when they reached 8 years of age.

Methods: Eye movements were recorded in 24 preterm born children (18 boys) and 26 matched controls (19 boys), recruited by a French hospital, using an eye tracker.

[Enoxaparin and tinzaparin in pediatrics: Impact of recommendation on prescription quality and anti-Xa levels].

Objectives: A protocol has been written and distributed in May 2017 to all prescribers in a pediatric hospital to standardize and to secure the prescriptions of enoxaparin and tinzaparin considered as two high risk medications. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the protocol on those prescriptions in a pediatric population.

Methods: This is a monocentric retrospective study comparing prescriptions of this two low-molecular-weight heparins for patients under 18 years old in 2016 and 2018, thus before and after the protocol redaction.
