Moderately preterm, late preterm and early term infants: research needs.

In spite of increased appreciation that all preterm infants and early term infants are at higher risk for mortality and morbidities compared with their term counterparts, there are many knowledge gaps affecting optimal clinical care for this vulnerable population. This article presents a research agenda focusing on the systems biology, epidemiology, and clinical and translational sciences on th...

Phototherapy motivates protein and lipid oxidation in jaundiced term and late term neonates

Background: Hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most important complications encountered in neonatal units. It has been proposed that phototherapy yields oxidative stress. Therefore, this study was undertaken to survey the levels of antioxidant and oxidative stress in the serum of neonates before and after phototherapy. Methods: This study was performed on thirty-five healthy, late preterm (>35 w...

Long-term outcomes of moderately preterm, late preterm, and early term infants.

At present, moderate preterm (MPT) infants born at 32 to 33 weeks' gestation and late preterm (LPT) infants born at 34 to 36 weeks' gestation make up the largest subgroup of preterm infants and contribute to more than 80% of premature births in the United States. There is increasing evidence that both MPT and LPT infants are at increased risk of neurologic impairments, developmental disabilitie...

Neurobehavioral Mechanisms of Temporal Processing Deficits in Parkinson's Disease

BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) disrupts temporal processing, but the neuronal sources of deficits and their response to dopamine (DA) therapy are not understood. Though the striatum and DA transmission are thought to be essential for timekeeping, potential working memory (WM) and executive problems could also disrupt timing. METHODOLOGY/FINDINGS The present study addressed these issues b...

Epigenetic Mechanisms in Developmental Alcohol-Induced Neurobehavioral Deficits

Alcohol consumption during pregnancy and its damaging consequences on the developing infant brain are significant public health, social, and economic issues. The major distinctive features of prenatal alcohol exposure in humans are cognitive and behavioral dysfunction due to damage to the central nervous system (CNS), which results in a continuum of disarray that is collectively called fetal al...
