Understanding parental choices related to infant sleep practices in the United States using a mixed methods approach.
BMC Pediatr
January 2025
School of Medicine, Division of General Academic Pediatrics, University of Pittsburgh, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
Background: This study aimed to gather information about parental practices, knowledge, and attitudes regarding infant sleep habits and environments, among families who practice non-recommended sleep practices.
Methods: We conducted one-on-one phone interviews with parents who had practiced non-recommended sleep methods with their infant and had or had not experienced an undesirable sleep event such as a fall. Interviews were recorded and coded with MAXQDA software.
Individual-, Hospital-, And Community-Level Factors Associated With Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Among Infants Born Preterm in 5 US States.

Division of Neonatology, Department of Pediatrics, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania.
Objective: To investigate individual-, hospital-, and community-level factors associated with sudden unexpected infant death (SUID) among infants born preterm.
Study Design: The following linked dataset from 5 states (California, Michigan, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina) from 2005 through 2020 was used: 1) infant birth and death certificates; 2) maternal and infant birth hospitalization discharge records; 3) birthing hospital data from the American Hospital Association; and 4) community-level data from the Social Vulnerability Index (SVI).) Multivariable models were used to assess the independent association between these multi-level factors and SUID, adjusting for several maternal and infant characteristics.
Potential postmortem microbial biomarkers of infant and younger children death investigation.
J Forensic Sci
December 2024
Department of Entomology, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan, USA.
Microbial communities associated with the human body are highly dynamic and reflect the host environment and lifestyle over time. Studies show death is no exception, with data demonstrating similar antemortem and postmortem microbiomes up to 48 h following death. These predictable microbial biomarkers can inform death investigation by helping to estimate the postmortem interval and build models to identify cause and manner of death.

Despite contributing less than 1% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, Small Island Developing States (SIDS) have the potential to drive global mitigation actions by advocating for ambitious emission reduction targets, promoting renewable energy solutions, and advancing sustainable development practices. The adoption of onshore-offshore wind and solar energy in 39 SIDS, which are currently experiencing the adverse effects of climate change, presents a significant opportunity. By harnessing renewable energy sources, these countries can effectively mitigate GHG emissions, enhance energy security, and build resilience.

Article Synopsis
- Disasters significantly affect children's health and wellbeing, making them key indicators of how well communities recover after such events.
- A child-centric approach to building community resilience has proven beneficial, but there's a need to adapt these models for international settings, especially in vulnerable areas like Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
- The Resilient Children, Resilient Communities Initiative, developed by Columbia University's National Center for Disaster Preparedness and Save the Children, aims to enhance child-focused resilience in communities, with ongoing adaptations for Dominica that involve assessing existing policies and improving disaster preparedness for children's needs.
