The relation of observed emotional reactivity and regulation in infancy to executive function early childhood was examined a prospective longitudinal sample 1,292 children from predominantly low-income rural communities. Children participated fear eliciting task at ages 7, 15, 24 months completed an battery age 48 months. Results indicated that the child negative 15 functioning dependent on emotion regulation. High levels ability were among who exhibited high this reactivity. In contrast,...
Premenstrual symptoms, including physical and mood affect a large proportion of women worldwide. Data on premenstrual symptoms across nations age groups is limited. In the present study, we leveraged international dataset to explore patterns in symptom frequency with age. A survey was administered users Flo mobile application (app), aged 18 55. The queried app about range symptoms. Respondents were asked whether they experienced each every menstrual cycle, some cycles, or never. Age also...
Thousands of pregnant people with opioid use disorder (OUD) enter US jails annually, yet their access to medications for OUD (MOUD) that meet the standard care (methadone and/or buprenorphine) is unknown.To assess availability MOUD treatment individuals in jails.In this cross-sectional study, electronic and paper surveys were sent all 2885 identifiable verified National Jails Compendium between August 19 November 7, 2019. Respondents medical custody leaders within jails.The primary outcome...
Infant–mother behavioral synchrony is thought to scaffold the development of self-regulation in first years life. During this time, infants’ and mothers’ physiological regulation may contribute dyadic and, infants, support regulation. Because sympathetic nervous system (SNS) parasympathetic (PNS) serve different regulatory functions, current study aimed elucidate relations between SNS PNS functioning synchrony. Skin conductance (SC; index), respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA; heart period...
Abstract There remains little debate that the period before birth sets stage for subsequent development, yet scant evidence exists showing continuity from characteristics of individual fetus to child. This report examines, in two studies, whether baseline and evoked fetal neurobehavioral functioning are predictive features child temperament behavior as reported by mothers when offspring were between 7 14 years old ( M = 10.1 years). Study 1 utilizes data generated 333 maternal–fetal pairs...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, the disease-causing pathogen of disease 2019 pandemic, has resulted in morbidity and mortality worldwide. Pregnant women are more susceptible to severe at higher risk preterm birth than uninfected pregnant women. Despite this evidence, immunologic effects 2 infection during pregnancy remain understudied.
Among the earliest volumes of this monograph series was a report by Lester Sontag and colleagues, esteemed Fels Institute, on heart rate human fetus as an expression developing nervous system. Here, some 75 years later, we commemorate work provide historical contemporary context knowledge regarding fetal development, well results from our own research. These are based synchronized monitoring maternal parameters assessed between 24 36 weeks gestation 740 maternal-fetal pairs compiled eight...
Abstract Importance The effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on immune responses during pregnancy have not been systematically evaluated. Objective To assess the impact inflammatory and humoral in maternal fetal samples compare antibody to among pregnant non-pregnant women. Design Immune were analyzed using from women who had either tested positive or negative for SARS-CoV-2. We measured, proinflammatory placental cytokine mRNAs, neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) expression, tetanus transfer cord blood...
Background Fetoscopic laser surgery aims to treat Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome with a single procedure. In rare cases, missed or recanalized anastomoses lead recurrent disease, either postlaser Twin Anemia Polycythemia Sequence (TAPS) (TTTS). Repeat is one possible treatment.
Abstract The current study examines the application of Pediatric-Buccal-Epigenetic (PedBE) clock, designed for buccal epithelial cells, to endothelia. We evaluate association PedBE epigenetic age and acceleration estimated from human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with length gestation birthweight in a racially ethnically diverse sample (analytic n = 333). was positively associated gestational at birth ( r 0.22, p < .001) infant weight 0.20, .001). Multivariate models revealed...
Associations between maternal salivary testosterone at 36 weeks’ gestation with birth weight and infant gain through 6 months of age were examined in a group 49 healthy, pregnant women their offspring. The diurnal decline was conserved late pregnancy, levels showed significant day-to-day stability. Elevated morning level associated lower Z -scores adjusted for gestational sex, greater months. Although did not differ by fetal relations sex-specific such that had impact on male infants; among...
