Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the leading cause of among infants between 1 month and year age in developed world. In United States, SIDS accounts for 22% all postneonatal deaths.1 Many countries have launched educational campaigns an effort to prevent SIDS, focusing on modifiable factors that had been shown previously be associated with SIDS.2 Although vary content their other messages, message every campaign has avoidance prone position sleeping infants. Dramatic declines...
<h3>Importance</h3> Inadequate adherence to recommendations known reduce the risk of sudden unexpected infant death has contributed a slowing in decline these deaths. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess effectiveness 2 interventions separately and combined promote safe sleep practices compared with control interventions. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> Four-group cluster randomized clinical trial mothers healthy term newborns who were recruited between March 2015 May 2016 at 16 US hospitals...
Congregate living poses one of the highest risk situations for transmission respiratory viruses including SARS-CoV-2. University dormitories exemplify such high-risk settings. We demonstrate value using building-level SARS-CoV-2 wastewater surveillance as an early warning system to inform when prevalence testing all building occupants is warranted. Coordinated daily composite samples and clinical in was used prompt screening otherwise unrecognized infected occupants. overlay detection...
To determine mediators of improvements in infant safe-sleep (SS) practices a mobile health intervention.
Introduction: The benefits of breastfeeding include lower risk postneonatal mortality. It is unclear whether specifically affects SIDS risk. Aim: A meta-analysis was undertaken to measure the association between and SIDS. Method: We identified 285 studies with data on through a Medline search (1966–2009), review papers meta-analyses, which 31 were original case-control studies. Two teams 2 reviewers independently evaluated study quality according preset criteria. Univariate multivariate odds...
Purpose: The aim of this paper is to compare international trends in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and postneonatal mortality (PNM) since the introduction SIDS risk reduction safe sleep campaigns, offer possible explanations for differences, provide recommendations improve consistency classifying reporting unexpected deaths infancy (SUDI) internationally. Methods: rates were obtained 15 countries from 1990 through year which most recent data available. Results: have declined all...
Objective: Persons with high-risk for severe COVID-19 illness require special attention when considering university operations during the novel coronavirus pandemic. The objective of this study was to determine number students who fall within a category according Centers Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines using linked databases. Participants: Students enrolled at large public University accessed student health center between 2016 2020. Methods: Clinical data were both enrollment...
Breast-feeding is associated with a reduced risk of postneonatal mortality. It unclear whether breast-feeding also lowers the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The results large number epidemiologic studies investigating possible protective effect against SIDS have been conflicting. A meta-analysis published in 2007 reported among infants who were ever breast-fed compared never breast-fed. This tested hypotheses that decreases and for longer duration exclusive are greater reduction risk....
Research into improving player safety of sport-related concussion (SRC) in American football has been an ongoing endeavor. In attempt to better understand the incidence SRCs football, research focused on characteristics SRC during gameplay. Determining specifics and assessing them quantitatively can help identify high-risk scenarios predict exposure risk.To assess a National Collegiate Athletic Association team by comparing field location, positions, collision partners, cues.Descriptive...
This study examined the association between prior reports of child abuse and subsequent postneonatal death differences by cause death, using data from Chicago Infant Mortality Study (CIMS). CIMS included all sudden, unexplained infant deaths up to 1 year age in (November 1993–April 1996), age, race-ethnicity, birthweight-matched living controls. Information on outcomes was obtained through Illinois Department Children Family Services (DCFS) State Central Registry for each case control....
