Although the development autism and schizophrenia linked to infections during fetal life, it is unknown whether more common psychiatric conditions such as depression might begin in utero.To estimate risk psychopathologic imparted from exposure any maternal infection while hospitalized pregnancy.A total 1 791 520 Swedish children born between January 1, 1973, December 31, 2014, were observed for up 41 years using...
Few data are available for assessing the outcomes of bariatric surgery patients who have undergone orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). The University Minnesota database and transplant registry were retrospectively reviewed to identify had OLT then open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) between 2001 2009. Comorbidity-appropriate laboratory values, body mass indices (BMIs), histopathology reports, immunosuppressive regimens collected. Seven identified with a mean age 55.4 ± 8.64 years...
Introduction Over 60% of premature infants are born in Africa or South Asia. Infants early, small who become sick after birth have a higher risk death, poor growth and developmental impairments. Innovative interventions tailored for low- middle-income countries essential to help these newborns survive develop optimally. This study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability preliminary effectiveness Hospital Home (H2H), discharge follow-up programme rural Uganda. Methods We compared two cohorts...
Because of provider variability in feeding guideline application, a quality improvement (QI) initiative was begun to better standardize initiation and advancement for preterm infants. Our specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, timely aims included decreasing the time reach full feeds by 35% reducing duration central lines 30% over 12 months infants born between 25 30 weeks' gestation or with birth weight 600 1250 g.Registered dietitians tracked line days, parenteral nutrition (PN),...
Introduction A follow-up programme designed for high-risk newborns discharged from inpatient newborn units in low-resource settings is imperative to ensure these receive the healthiest possible start life. We aim assess feasibility, acceptability and early outcomes of a discharge programme, called Hospital Home (H2H), neonatal unit central Uganda. Methods analysis will use mixed-methods study design comparing historical cohort an intervention their caregivers admitted The includes two main...
The aims of this study were to describe the prescribing patterns oxycodone for patients with distal upper extremity fractures and evaluate factors that influence quantity prescribed at discharge.We retrospectively studied prescriptions presenting a single center tertiary pediatric emergency department (ED) from June 1, 2014, May 31, 2016. We used logistic regression models association opioid administration in ED, fracture reduction under ketamine sedation, initial pain scores (low, medium,...
Objective: Unexplained developmental disability and epilepsy pose a major socioeconomic burden. Exome sequencing is revolutionizing diagnosis, however, does not often translate into effective treatment. Notable exceptions include certain inborn errors of metabolism amenable to dietary intervention. CAD codes multifunctional enzyme in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. Alternatively, pyrimidines can be recycled from uridine.
