Pregnant women living in or traveling to areas with local mosquito-borne Zika virus transmission are at risk for infection, which can lead severe fetal and infant brain abnormalities microcephaly (1). In February 2016, CDC recommended 1) routine testing infection of asymptomatic pregnant ongoing the first prenatal care visit, 2) retesting during second trimester who initially test negative, 3) signs symptoms consistent disease (e.g., fever, rash, arthralgia, conjunctivitis) any time...
Renal ultrasounds are performed in patients with myelomeningocele to screen for markers of kidney health, including hydronephrosis. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy hydronephrosis low function defined by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). a retrospective cross-sectional study using data from 2 cohorts children and youth myelomeningocele. The first cohort is Urological Management Preserve Initial Function Protocol Young Children With Spina Bifida (UMPIRE; 2016-2022) second...
Zika virus is a cause of microcephaly and brain abnormalities (1), it the first known mosquito-borne infection to congenital anomalies in humans. The establishment comprehensive surveillance system monitor pregnant women with will provide data further elucidate full range potential outcomes for fetuses infants mothers asymptomatic symptomatic during pregnancy. In February 2016, disease infections became nationally notifiable conditions United States (2). Cases laboratory evidence who have...
Zika virus infection during pregnancy can cause serious brain abnormalities, but the full range of adverse outcomes is unknown (1). To better understand impact birth defects resulting from infection, CDC surveillance case definition established in 2016 for potentially related to infection* (2) was retrospectively applied population-based data collected 2013-2014 three areas before introduction (the pre-Zika years) into World Health Organization's Region Americas (Americas) (3). These data,...
Aim To compare the frequencies of neurosurgical procedures to treat comorbid conditions myelomeningocele in patients who underwent fetal surgery versus postnatal for closure placode. Method By utilizing National Spina Bifida Patient Registry a comparative effectiveness study, 298 were matched by birthdate (±3mo) and spina bifida clinic site with one three ( n =648). Histories obtained record review on enrollment yearly subsequently. Multivariable Poisson regression was used between cohorts,...

Urinary tract infections commonly occur in patients with spina bifida and pose a risk of renal scarring. Routine antibiotic prophylaxis has been utilized newborns to prevent urinary infections. We hypothesized that can safely be withheld until clinical assessment allows for stratification.Newborns myelomeningocele at 9 institutions were prospectively enrolled the UMPIRE study managed by standardized protocol strict definition infection. Patient data collected regarding details reported...
