Maternal perinatal anxiety and infant primary care use in 1998-2016: a UK cohort study.

Background: There is some evidence that perinatal anxiety (PNA) is associated with lower rates of infant vaccinations and decreased access to preventative infant healthcare, but results across studies have not been conclusive.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between maternal PNA and infant primary care use.

Methods: Cohort study of mother-infant pairs identified between 1998 and 2016 using IQVIA Medical Research Database (IMRD).

The first 100 days after childbirth: cross-sectional study of maternal clinical events and health needs from primary care.

Background: The first 100 days after childbirth are important for women recovering from pregnancy and birth.

Aim: To describe the most common clinical events or health needs documented in women's primary care records in the first 100 days after childbirth.

Design And Setting: Cross-sectional study using electronic health records from UK primary care data.

Association of Recent Fatherhood With Antidepressant Treatment Initiation Among Men in the United Kingdom.

Importance: There is some evidence that men may be at higher risk of depression directly following the birth of their child and that approximately 1 in 10 men will experience depression in the year after birth, but less is known about men's antidepressant treatment during this time. Likewise, few direct comparisons have been made with antidepressant treatment in men who have not recently become fathers.

Objectives: To determine whether recently having a child was associated with increased odds of antidepressant treatment in men.

Maternal Postnatal Depression and Completion of Infant Immunizations: A UK Cohort Study of 196,329 Mother-Infant Pairs, 2006-2015.

To examine the relationship between maternal postnatal depression and completion of infant vaccinations. We conducted a cohort study using data from The Health Improvement Network (THIN), a large UK primary care electronic health record database. We identified 196,329 mother-infant pairs in which the infant was born between 2006 and 2015.

Postnatal checks and primary care consultations in the year following childbirth: an observational cohort study of 309 573 women in the UK, 2006-2016.

Objective: To describe women's uptake of postnatal checks and primary care consultations in the year following childbirth.

Design: Observational cohort study using electronic health records.

Setting: UK primary care.

Nasopharyngeal colonisation with Streptococcus pneumoniae in malnourished children: a systematic review and meta-analysis of prevalence.

Background: Streptococcus pneumoniae is an intermittent commensal organism in the nasopharynx. Colonisation is a prerequisite for disease and malnourished children are especially susceptible to severe infection. This systematic review examines published prevalence rates of pneumococcal colonisation in the upper respiratory tract of chronically malnourished children <5 y of age.

Use of the robust design to estimate seasonal abundance and demographic parameters of a coastal bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus) population.

As delphinid populations become increasingly exposed to human activities we rely on our capacity to produce accurate abundance estimates upon which to base management decisions. This study applied mark-recapture methods following the Robust Design to estimate abundance, demographic parameters, and temporary emigration rates of an Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus) population off Bunbury, Western Australia. Boat-based photo-identification surveys were conducted year-round over three consecutive years along pre-determined transect lines to create a consistent sampling effort throughout the study period and area.

Evaluation of the quantitative capability of a high-resolution positron emission tomography scanner for small animal imaging.

Objective: The quantitative capability of a positron emission tomography scanner for small animal imaging was evaluated in this study.

Methods: The microPET P4 (Concorde Microsystems, Knoxville, TN) scanner's capability for dynamic imaging and corrections for radioactive decay, dead time, and attenuation were evaluated. Rat brain and heart studies with and without attenuation correction were compared.
