Article Synopsis
- * Traditional treatment methods like therapeutic hypothermia are often ineffective in these regions due to resource limitations.
- * Intranasal therapies offer a promising alternative due to their low cost and ease of administration, but further research and human clinical trials are needed to develop these treatments for HIE.
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in neonates causes mortality and neurologic morbidity, including poor cognition with a complex neuropathology. Injury to the cholinergic basal forebrain and its rich innervation of cerebral cortex may also drive cognitive pathology. It is uncertain whether genes associated with adult cognition-related neurodegeneration worsen outcomes after neonatal HIE.

Study Design: This is a case-control study of 93 newborns and 186 controls ≥35 weeks' gestation. All were discharged from the Mother-Baby unit of an urban academic center and subsequently readmitted for hyperbilirubinemia.
Background: In high-risk newborns indirect hyperbilirubinemia can lead to acute bilirubin encephalopathy and kernicterus. Despite the current therapeutic modalities, preventing or reversing the neurotoxicity cannot be achieved in all infants.
Objective: To investigate the neuroprotective effects of hypothermia on bilirubin-induced toxicity in primary mouse neuronal cell cultures.
