Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the association between maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) levels and the risk of perinatal complications.
Study Design: This is a retrospective cohort study of 5,693 mother-child pairs born between 2019 and 2021, who completed questionnaires on maternal ACE scores and perinatal complications such as preterm birth, low birth weight infants, pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and premature rupture of membrane (PROM). Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using logistic regression according to the three ACE score groups after adjusting for confounding factors such as maternal age, child's sex, household income, and maternal education.
Article Synopsis
- Maternal social support during pregnancy plays a crucial role in the physical and mental well-being of both mothers and their children, potentially influencing child development outcomes.
- A study involving 68,442 mother-child pairs found that higher levels of social support were linked to significantly lower risks of developmental delays in various areas, such as communication and motor skills, in 3-year-old children.
- The findings indicate that regardless of factors like parental education or household income, increased maternal social support is associated with better developmental outcomes for children.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to find risk factors for delayed oral nutrition in infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and its effects on their development at 18 months.
- Researchers analyzed data from 80 patients treated between 2006 and 2020, finding that 26 experienced delayed oral nutrition, particularly linked to large defect size and prolonged ventilation.
- The results suggest that these risk factors not only delay nutrition but also increase the likelihood of developmental delay, indicating a need for proactive developmental care in affected infants.
Objectives: To evaluate the survival and intact-survival rates among preterm infants with congenital diaphragm hernia (CDH).
Study Design: Multicenter retrospective cohort study of 849 infants born between 2006 and 2020 at 15 Japanese CDH study group facilities. Multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted using inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) method was used.
Objectives: To investigate the association between providing leaflets to support pediatricians in explaining the safety of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and mother's decision to vaccinate their daughters in Japan.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we conducted a survey of mothers to evaluate the effect of leaflets that were created to support pediatricians in explaining the safety profile of the HPV vaccine. Mothers who provided consent for vaccination before receiving an explanation were excluded from the study.
Umbilical cord prolapse after preterm premature rupture of membranes.
Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol
May 2022
Objective: To investigate the incidence of umbilical cord prolapse (UCP) and its influence on infant prognosis in pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM).
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study in a single tertiary perinatal center between 2009 and 2017. Singleton pregnancies with PPROM that occurred between 22 and 33 weeks of gestation were included.
Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the association between bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) development at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age (PMA) and Gram-negative bacteria in tracheal aspirate cultures among extremely preterm infants.
Study Design: This study has a retrospective cohort. Patients were 155 infants aged less than or equal to 26 gestational weeks who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Osaka Women's and Children's Hospital from 2009 to 2018.
Purpose: To evaluate differences in the progression pattern among subtypes of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Participants: Premature infants screened for ROP.
Objective: To investigate factors associated with development of severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in extremely preterm (EP) infants.
Study Design: This retrospective cohort study included 213 EP infants (22 + 0 to 27 + 6 weeks gestation) who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Osaka Women's and Children's Hospital between 2009 and 2017. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify neonatal factors associated with severe ROP requiring treatment.
