Since December 2019, there has been an outbreak of novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infection in China. Two cases of neonates with positive 2019-nCoV tests have been reported. Due to the immature immune system and the possibility of vertical transmission from mother to infant, neonates have become a high-risk group susceptible to 2019-nCoV, which emphasize a close cooperation from both perinatal and neonatal pediatrics. In neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), to prevent and control infection, there should be practical measures to ensure the optimal management of children potentially to be infected. According to the latest 2019-nCoV national management plan and the actual situation, the Chinese Neonatal 2019-nCoV expert working Group has put forward measures on the prevention and control of neonatal 2019-nCoV infection.

Can maternal serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 to placental growth factor levels at term anticipate adverse pregnancy outcomes?

J Obstet Gynaecol Res

January 2025

Pregnancy Research Centre, Department of Maternal Fetal Medicine, the Royal Women's Hospital, Parkville, Victoria, Australia.

Aim: To evaluate if maternal serum soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1) to placental growth factor (PlGF) ratio levels at term can anticipate the following adverse pregnancy outcomes: small for gestational age neonates; operative delivery for suspected fetal welfare compromise; and neonatal compromise.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of a single hospital database containing antenatal soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 to placental growth factor (sFlt-1/PlGF) ratio results together with associated demographic, clinical and investigative information. Subjects with antenatal sFlt-1/PlGF measurements taken ≥37 weeks' gestation were analyzed.

Therapeutic hypothermia in preterm infants under 36 weeks: Case series on outcomes and brain MRI findings.

Eur J Pediatr

January 2025

Neonatology Department. Hospital Sant Joan de Déu, Center for Maternal Fetal and Neonatal Medicine. Neonatal Brain Group, Universitat de Barcelona. Hospital Clínic, Universitat de Barcelona. BCNatal - Barcelona, Institut de Recerca Sant Joan de Déu, Barcelona, Spain.

Purpose: Perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a significant cause of neonatal brain injury. Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is the standard treatment for term neonates, but its safety and efficacy in neonates < 36 weeks gestational age (GA) remains unclear. This case series aimed to evaluate the outcomes of preterm infants with HIE treated with TH.

Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder, characterized by the partial or total deletion of one X chromosome, resulting in various karyotypes that presumably lead to different phenotypes. However, most studies find it difficult to predict phenotypes from karyotypes due to the presence of mosaicism. The purpose of this study is to clarify the relationship between karyotype and phenotype in Turner syndrome with non-mosaic X chromosome structural rearrangements.

Prenatal toxicity of L-mimosine in Wistar rats.

Toxicon

December 2024

Department of Pathology, School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, University of São Paulo, São Paulo, S.P., Brazil; Institute of Environmental, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Federal University of São Paulo (ICAQF-UNIFESP), Diadema, S.P., Brazil. Electronic address:

L-Mimosine is the main active component of the plant Leucaena leucocephala. Due to its metal-chelating mechanism, it interacts with various metabolic pathways in living organisms, making it a potential pharmacological target, although it also leads to toxicity. The present study aimed to investigate the transplacental passage of L-mimosine and its effects on embryofetal development.
