Objectives: In survivors of illnesses or surgeries requiring PICU admission, there is a risk posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We aimed to estimate PTSD prevalence and potential contributing factors in admission. Data Sources: performed PROSPERO registered systematic review (CRD42022348997; Registered August 2022) using MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) databases, 2000 2022, with no language restrictions. Study Selection: Observational...
Prenatal depression is common, underrecognized, and undertreated. It has negative consequences on child behavior brain development, yet the relationships among prenatal depression, behavior, children's structure remain unclear. The aim of this study was to determine whether altered connectivity mediates between maternal depressive symptoms behavior. This included 54 human mother-child pairs. Mothers completed Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale during second third trimesters pregnancy 3...
Background Evidence-based clinical care guidelines improve medical treatment by reducing error, improving outcomes and possibly lowering healthcare costs. While some data exist on individual guideline compliance, no overall compliance to multiple nuanced in a paediatric intensive setting. Methods Guideline was observed measured with prospective cohort at tertiary academic medical-surgical unit. Adherence 19 evidence-based evaluated 814 patients, reasons for non-compliance were noted along...
Abstract Chronically elevated levels of glucocorticoids increase food intake, weight gain, and adiposity. Similarly, ghrelin, a gut-secreted hormone, is also associated with adiposity, increased feeding. Here we sought to determine if corticosterone-induced metabolic behavioral changes require functional ghrelin receptors (GHSR). To do this, treated male C57BL mice chronic corticosterone (CORT) mixed in their drinking water for 28 days. Half these received the GHSR antagonist JMV2959 via...
Abstract Prenatal depression is a common, underrecognized, and undertreated condition with negative consequences on child behaviour brain development. Neurological dysfunction of the amygdala, cingulate cortex hippocampus are associated development stress disorders in youth adults. Although prenatal both neurological dysfunction, relationship between these variables remains unclear. In this study, fifty-four mothers completed Edinburgh Depression Scale (EDS) during second third trimester...
Aims & Objectives: Pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admission is a life-threatening event placing survivors at risk for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This systematic review sought to describe the prevalence of PTSD in PICU and analyze potential risk-factors driving variation estimates. Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, CENTRAL databases were searched from 2000 August 2022, no language restrictions. Stage one screening abstract full text identify studies evaluating post-discharge....
