Purpose: Pregnant and postpartum mothers with physical disabilities face discrimination in healthcare settings and high rates of maternal and obstetric complications, as well as having higher rates of lifetime depression prior to pregnancy, potentially increasing their likelihood of experiencing postpartum depression (PPD). Some studies have found higher rates of PPD in mothers with physical disabilities than in mothers without physical disabilities, with more disabling symptoms associated with worse PPD systems; however, the literature is sparse and heterogenous. This systematic review and meta-analysis advanced this area of study by evaluating the strength of the association between PPD and physical disability.

Background: Extremely preterm infants (EPIs) often require advanced respiratory support to survive, and one such intervention is the heated, humidified, high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC). While the use of this cannula in EPIs has been studied, the relationship between its use and the length of hospital stay is an important yet unexplored research area that we aim to investigate in this study.

Methods: In a quantitative retrospective cohort study, data were extracted from an electronic database.
