ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN PRETERM BIRTH, SMALL-FORGESTATIONAL AGE, AND NEONATAL MORBIDITY AND COGNITIVE FUNCTION AMONG SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN IN NEPAL

The long term consequences of low birth weight (LBW), preterm birth, small-for-gestational age (SGA, defined as birth weight for given gestational age less than the 10th percentile of the reference), and early newborn morbidity on functional outcomes are not well described in low income settings.

user manuals [21,36]. For the HADS, missing data were accommodated for individuals who had responded to five or more of the seven items of HADS-A or HADS-D [30]. Descriptive analyses (mean, standard deviation [SD], range) were used. Simple and multiple linear regression analyses were used to[r]

Neonatal sepsis, one of the leading causes of mortality in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) of developing countries like Nepal, is often not extensively studied. In order to decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with neonatal sepsis, neonatologists should have a keen knowledge of the e[r]

Globally, about 15 million neonates are born preterm and about 85% of global preterm birth occurs in Asia and Africa regions. We aimed to estimate the incidence and risk factors for preterm birth in a rural Bangladeshi cohort.

Few population-based studies have assessed relationships between body weight and motor skills in young children. Our objective was to estimate the association between obesity and motor skills at 4 years and 5-6 years of age in the United States.

Special attention was given to age-group-specific distributions of antibiotic subgroups, since comparison in this regard between countries is[r]

Malnutrition remains to be a major public health problem in developing countries, particularly among children under-5 years of age children who are more vulnerable to both macro and micro-nutrient deficiencies.

Preterm-born or asphyxiated term-born children show more emotional and behavioral problems at preschool age than term-born children without a medical condition. It is uncertain whether parenting intervention programs aimed at the general population, are effective in this specific group.

With improvements in treatment of cancer, more men of fertile age are survivors of cancer. This study evaluates trends in birth rates among male cancer survivors and mortality rates of their offspring.

A substantial proportion of the school-age population experience cognitive-related learning difficulties. Not all children who struggle at school receive a diagnosis, yet their problems are sufficient to warrant additional support.

The relationship between birth weight and blood pressure has not been well explored in Chinese children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between birth weight and childhood blood pressure in China.

Neonatal hypothermia is a global health problem and a major factor for neonatal morbidity and mortality, especially in low and middle-income countries.

Children born at low gestational ages face a range of risks and number of neonates surviving very preterm birth is increasing. We present the objectives and methods of a French national cohort of very and moderately preterm children, the EPIPAGE 2 study.

This review paper aims to highlight characteristics, causes and prevention of preterm birth. Preterm birth rates are increasing in almost all countries with reliable data. It has become a significant public health concern and a leading cause of infant mortality and morbidity worldwide and often cont[r]

Catechol-O-Methyltranferase (COMT) plays a crucial role in the removal of cortical dopamine and is strongly implicated in human executive function. Numerous studies have reported associations of the COMT Val158Met (rs4680) polymorphism with executive function in healthy subjects. However, little wor[r]
