Purpose: To analyze the correlation between the results obtained on the SEAL and the Bayley III Scale and compare babies with and without delay in language acquisition at 24 months concerning the performance obtained by them and their mothers on the SEAL from 3 to 24 months.
Methods: The SEAL collection consists of 15-minute footages of 45 babies aged from 3 to 24 months old in interaction with their mothers, who were assessed by two trained speech therapists for the use of the SEAL. At 24 months, the 45 babies were assessed using the Bayley III Scale and the item language was selected to classify them with and without delay. These results were statistically analyzed through a Pearson's correlation test and a Fisher's exact test.
Results: In average, eighteen signs of typical development as we obtained, while a mean of 12 delay signs were found. By comparing the presence and absence of signs between the groups with and without delay in language acquisition, eight signs from the baby and one from the mother differed statistically in the sample. The analysis using the SEAL for cases of delay showed that the maternal factor was as important as the infant factor to understand the babies' language functioning.
Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between the SEAL performance from 3 to 24 months and the language outcome at 24 months assessed by the Bayley III Scale in this sample.

Purpose: This study examined parenting stress and child special healthcare needs to child neurocognitive development (NCD).
Design And Methods: This secondary analysis used data from the primary study, a longitudinal cohort study of mother-child dyads. Multivariable regression models examined the associations between parenting stress and child special healthcare needs with NCD.

Background: With the increasing use of developmental screening tools, there is a growing need to validate parental screening methods for the early detection of developmental difficulties in children, regarding their psychometric properties.
Methods: This study evaluates the convergent validity of the S-PMV11 parental screening tool by comparing its outcomes with the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (Bayley-III), the gold standard for direct assessment.
Results: We analyzed data from 30 children and found significant correlations between S-PMV11 scores and Bayley-III assessments across cognitive, language, and motor skill domains.

Introduction: Maternal undernutrition and inflammation in utero may significantly impact the neurodevelopmental potential of offspring. However, few studies have investigated the effects of pregnancy interventions on long-term child growth and development. This study will examine the effects of prenatal nutrition and infection management interventions on long-term growth and neurodevelopmental outcomes of offspring.

Aim: To describe the cortical brain development and full-IQ performance in middle school age children after extremely preterm (EPT) birth considering discrete white matter abnormalities (WMA). In addition, to assess possible early motor predictors of cortical brain development and full-IQ in children born EPT with and without discrete WMA diagnosed at 10 years.
Methods: T1-weighted MRI images from fifty-one children born before 27 weeks' gestation and 40 full-term born controls (M=10.

Unlabelled: The objective of this study is to evaluate whether early hypoglycemia is an independent risk factor for 2-year cognitive (COG) impairment in small for gestational age (SGA) preterm infants with gestational age (GA) < 32 weeks. We retrospectively reviewed data of 1364 preterm infants with a GA 24-31 weeks. Infants were classified based on blood glucose concentrations within the first 6 h of life (HOL) as < or ≥ 40 mg/dL (Glyc < 40 and Glyc ≥ 40, respectively) and subsequently by birth weight z-score as SGA or appropriate for gestational age (AGA).
