The article provides an overview of current neuro-ophthalmological diagnostic capabilities in patients with perinatal lesions. The main attention is paid to the diagnosis of patients with periventricular leukomalacia and peri- and intraventricular hemorrhages. The most relevant methods of neuro-ophthalmological diagnosis in hypoxic-ischemic CNS lesions are covered. The functions and peculiarities of blood supply of the germinal matrix are described. The importance of the use of optical coherence tomography and visual evoked potential recording in full-term and premature infants with visual pathway and/or visual cortex lesions in brain lesions is discussed. The conclusion emphasizes the need for an interdisciplinary approach in the examination of children with perinatal CNS lesions.

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

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.

Perinatal hypoxia and/or hypoglycemia (PHH) is a serious condition leading to many neonatal deaths worldwide. It causes motor and cognitive deficits, visual disturbances, and seizures in survivors. There is limited information on the clinical course of seizures, EEG and MRI findings in adults.

Unplanned admissions are associated with worse clinical outcomes and increased hospital resource utilization. We hypothesized that children with congenital heart disease (CHD) from lower-income neighborhoods have higher rates of unplanned hospital admissions and greater resource utilization. Utilizing the Kids' Inpatient Database (2016 and 2019), we included children under 21 years of age with CHD, excluding newborn hospitalizations.

Objective: To investigate the frequency of epileptiform discharges associated with self-limited focal epilepsy (EDSelFEC) in children who have undergone a hemispherotomy and to evaluate whether patients with coexistence of EDSelFEC and structural hemispheric epilepsies differ from patients without coexistence of EDSelFEC and whether there are differences between the two groups with regard to preoperative management and postoperative outcome.
Methods: Data on 131 children who underwent a hemispherotomy between January 1999 and January 2015 were retrieved from the Epilepsy center's epilepsy surgery database. Children with EDSelFEC were compared with children without EDSelFEC with respect to epileptogenic hemispheric pathology, family history, age at epilepsy onset, timing of surgery, lesion laterality, preoperative cognitive function, response to sodium channel blocker antiepileptic medication, and surgical outcome.
Predicting cardiac and pregnancy outcomes in women with adult congenital heart disease using the Anatomic and Physiological (AP) Classification System: How much does physiology matter?

Background: Pregnancy in women with congenital heart disease (CHD) is associated with an increased risk of adverse maternal and fetal events. Despite the physiological impact of CHD on pregnancy, current risk stratification scores primarily consider anatomical lesions. We assessed the performance of the novel American Heart Association Anatomic and Physiological (AP) classification system in predicting adverse maternal cardiac, obstetric and fetal events, and compared it with established risk models.
