Comparing the effects of 5-minute premature infant oral motor intervention with 15-minute Fucile treatment in term infants with feeding difficulties: A multi-arm randomised clinical trial.

Purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate whether term infants with feeding difficulties who received either a 5-minute premature infant oral motor intervention (PIOMI) or a 15-minute Fucile treatment had different outcomes, compared to term infants in a nontreatment group.

Method: Stable term infants ( = 51) born between 37-41 weeks of gestational age with feeding difficulties were randomly assigned into one of two intervention groups and a control group. One intervention group received PIOMI and the other group received Fucile treatment once a day for seven consecutive days; the control group received usual care only.

Dataset on neonatal and maternal factors influencing neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants: A study focused on the healthcare context of Mashhad, Iran.

This dataset offers an insight into the neurodevelopmental trajectories of preterm infants, encapsulating a wide array of neonatal and maternal factors. The data variables include demographic details alongside a detailed account of maternal health during pregnancy, encompassing aspects and other complications. Furthermore, the dataset documents neonatal health conditions.

Investigating the impact of Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccination on antibody response in pregnant women and their newborns.

This study aims to investigate the levels of receptor-binding domain (RBD), spike, and neutralizing antibodies in pregnant women who received the Sinopharm vaccine and their newborns. A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary center, Mashhad, Iran. We included 88 pregnant women who had received at least two doses of the Sinopharm vaccine.

Predicting neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants: A comprehensive evaluation of neonatal and maternal risk factors.

Objective: This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm infants (≤ 34 weeks gestational age) in the NICU.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 89 preterm infants admitted to the NICU of Ghaem hospital, Mashhad, between 2016 and 2020. Data on neonatal and maternal factors were collected.

Neonates with Covid-19 infection: Is there any different treatment process?

This study was designed to investigate the neonates with COVID-19 admitted to two hospitals in Neyshabur and Mashhad, Iran. In this study, 17 neonates are introduced with positive nasopharyngeal COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test who admitted to two hospitals in Iran. Perinatal information, contacts with a person with COVID-19 infection, clinical signs at the time of admission, laboratory tests, radiological evaluations, pulmonary and extra pulmonary complications, and short-term outcome have been reported.

Comparison of birth weights of neonates of mothers receiving vs. not receiving zinc supplement at pregnancy.

Background: Zinc is an essential element for normal embryogenesis and embryonic and neonatal development. Therefore, we compared the birth weights of neonates born to mothers who consumed zinc supplement during pregnancy with that of neonates born to mothers who did not.

Methods: In a cross-sectional study, we divided 200 pregnant mothers into two groups: case group (mothers receiving zinc supplement during pregnancy) and control group (mothers not receiving zinc supplement during pregnancy) Then, the neonate's cord zinc level and mother's serum level were measured and neonate's growth charts (weight, height and head circumference)were completed.

The vitamin D level in umbilical cord blood in premature infants with or without intra-ventricular hemorrhage: A cross-sectional study.

Background: Intra-ventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is acute cerebral complications of premature infants which may lead to the long-term problems.

Objective: According to the role of vitamin D in the stability of the blood vessels, the present study was carried out in order to compare the vitamin D level in the premature infants with or without IVH.

Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 180 premature infants in the Ghaem Hospital, Mashhad, Iran 97 infants without IVH (53.

Serum level of vitamin D in preterm infants and its association with premature-related respiratory complications: a case-control study.

Background And Aim: Prematurity and related problems, especially respiratory distress, are one of the main challenges for neonatal medicine. The aim of this study was to compare vitamin D levels in preterm infants with, and those without respiratory distress.

Methods: This case-control study was conducted in Ghaem and Emam Reza Hospitals in Mashhad (Iran) from 2015 to 2016.

Effects of intravenous administration of fentanyl and lidocaine on hemodynamic responses following endotracheal intubation.

Objectives: To compare the effects of intravenous fentanyl and lidocaine on hemodynamic changes following endotracheal intubation in patients requiring Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) in the emergency department (ED).

Methods: A single-centered, prospective, simple non-randomized, double-blind clinical trial was conducted on 96 patients who needed RSI in Edalatian ED. They were randomly divided into three groups (fentanyl group (F), lidocaine group (L), and fentanyl plus lidocaine (M) as our control group).

SEROLOGICAL RESPONSE TO VACCINES IN CHILDREN WITH DIABETES.

Objective: Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are more susceptible to infections. Deficiency in some domains of immune system could be one of the main reasons, which increases the risk of infections. The aim of this study was to assess antibody responses to vaccines in a group of children with diabetes and in the controls.
