The issues concerning the transfer of drugs into mothers' milk and their influence on breastfed babies have not been fully studied. Assessment of the situation should include such aspects as drug transfer into fetal blood and into mother's milk, the real risk of inhibiting lactogenesis 2 in women after birth, as well as the psychological consequences for the mother of suspending breastfeeding. The risk of feeding a newborn with formula based on cow's milk is another fateful issue. The following paper presents the pharmacokinetic characteristics of drugs which determine their transfer level through the placenta and into mother's milk during the perinatal period and lactation.

SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in breast milk of women given one & two doses of COVID-19 vaccine.
Indian J Med Res
November 2024
Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Background & objectives The COVID-19 pandemic underscores the significance of vaccination in mitigating disease spread, with Covishield and Covaxin serving as pivotal vaccines in India. Breast milk, rich in vital antibodies like IgA and IgG, plays a crucial role in enhancing the immune defence of breastfeeding infants. However, limited research exists on the antibody responses in breast milk among individuals receiving single versus double doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.

Background: The lactation period is a crucial period where the nutritional status and the mother's environment influence milk production, impacting organ differentiation, function, and structure in the baby's body.
Aim: The study aimed to determine the impact of providing lactating rats with quail egg supplements enriched with marine macroalgae on their physiological condition (blood cells, lipids, blood glucose, antioxidant activity, and prolactin hormone levels) and the growth of their offspring.
Methods: The study involved 25 lactating Sprague Dawley white rats aged 3 months old and weighing approximately 200 g divided into five treatment groups thus; T0 as the control, T1 with quail eggs enriched with commercial feed, T2 with quail eggs enriched with 3% of marine macroalgae, T3 with quail eggs enriched with 4% of marine macroalgae, and T4 with quail eggs enriched with 5% of marine macroalgae, which received one quail egg for 21 days.
Brain development using a multicomponent intravenous lipid emulsion in preterm infants.
BMC Pediatr
December 2024
Developing Brain Institute, Children's National Hospital, 111 Michigan Avenue, NW, Washington, DC, USA.
Background: Intravenous lipid emulsions are an essential component of nutritional support for very preterm infants. Many neonatal intensive care units have transitioned from traditional soybean oil-only to fish oil-containing multicomponent lipid emulsions, but the neurodevelopmental implications have not been well-explored. The primary aim of this study was to assess extrauterine third trimester brain growth in very preterm infants supported with soybean oil-only compared to fish-oil containing multicomponent lipid emulsions; white matter development and neurobehavioral regulation at term were also investigated.

Background: In Japan, three doses of vitamin K are administered to neonates as prophylactic regimens against vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of this prophylactic vitamin K regimen using the hepaplastin test (HPT) performed one, two weeks, and one month after birth. The secondary aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of HPT screening in healthy neonates.
