The paper presents the results of an anonymous questionnaire survey among the physicians of 7 children's health care facilities, who should assess and prevent pain in neonatal infants from 5 Russia's cities (Moscow, Cheboksary, Kursk, Novosibirsk, and Kyzyl). The questionnaire survey has indicated that all responding physicians agree with the statement that a neonate senses pain, but the severity of pain being uncontrolled and the pain syndrome unevaluated, pain analgesia and prevention are inadequately applied by comfort measures, particularly the use of glucose through a nipple, a pacifier, diapering, when procedures are performed. All the physicians are unanimous that analgesics or comfort measures should be more frequently used during any manipulations and procedures irrespective of whether they are performed for a long or short period.

Under-five mortality and social determinants in africa: a systematic review.
Eur J Pediatr
January 2025
Global Health and Tropical Medicine, GHTM, LA-REAL, Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical, IHMT, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal.
Purpose: Under-five mortality is a key public health indicator, highly responsive to preventive interventions. While global efforts have made strides in reducing mortality rates in this age group, significant disparities persist, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study aimed to systematically review the factors influencing under-five mortality in Africa, focusing on sociodemographic factors and health-related determinants.

Background: Unbound bilirubin (UB) was measured on day 5 ± 1 in 1101 ELBW newborns in the Aggressive vs Conservative Phototherapy randomized controlled trial. We accessed this dataset to quantify the UB-mediated risk of severe neurodevelopmental impairment (sNDI) in extremely low birthweight (ELBW) newborns.
Methods: UB levels were standardized within laboratories as z-score percentiles.
Sex-specific association between maternal childhood adversities and offspring's weight gain in a Brazilian cohort.

Maternal adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are linked to negative health and developmental outcomes in offspring. However, whether maternal ACEs influence infant weight gain in the first months of life, and if this effect differs by infant sex, remains unclear. This study included 352 full-term newborns from low-risk pregnancies and their mothers in low-income settings in Brazil.

Changes in adrenomedullin in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid with chorioamnionitis in a sheep-based model.
J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med
December 2025
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, G d'Annunzio University of Chieti, Italy.
Background: Adrenomedullin (AM) is a potent angiogenic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory peptide protecting the developing lung from injury due to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) of the preterm infant. At this stage, no data on the potential effects of chorioamnionitis (CA) occurrence and glucocorticoids (GC) administration on AM in developing lungs are still lacking.
Objective: to investigate, in a sheep-based model, the positive/side-effects of combined exposure to CA and GC on AM concentrations measured in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).
