Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare, Helsinki and Oulu, Finland.
People born preterm have reduced bone mineral density, subnormal peak bone mass, and an increased risk of osteoporosis. Whether this translates to increased risk of bone fractures is uncertain. We assessed fracture risk from childhood to early adulthood in relation to gestational age and sex by conducting a nationwide register-linkage cohort study comprising all 223 615 liveborn (1/1987- 9/1990) singletons (9161, 4.

The patient was referred to our endocrine clinic following childbirth. Blood tests revealed a life-threatening low level of serum phosphate, normal 25-hydroxy vitamin D concentration, low TmP/GFR ratio, and elevated FGF23 levels.

September 2024
Department of Pediatrics, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut.
Article Synopsis
- A study revealed that the cases of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) have significantly increased, with this research focusing on the hospital readmission rates of affected infants compared to those without NOWS.
- Analyzing U.S. hospital records from 2016 to 2020, the study found that 0.6% of newborns had NOWS, and infants with this condition had higher readmission rates within 90 days (4.2% vs. 3.0%).
- Key findings included that infants with NOWS were more likely to be readmitted for conditions like seizures, failure to thrive, and confirmed maltreatment, with significantly elevated odds ratios for these outcomes.
