Influence of the pre-natal environment on post-natal growth.

Blindsight: Post-natal Potential of a Transient Pulvinar Pathway

More vision is preserved after removal of primary visual cortex in infant than adult primates. A recent study suggests that this is due to the preservation of a retina-to-pulvinar-to-cortex pathway that normally regresses during development.

Development of auditory asymmetry in transient evoked otoacoustic emissions in pre-term infants.

We previously reported that transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) continue to develop after the onset of cochlear function in pre-term infants from 34 to 39 weeks of conceptional age (Morlet et al., 1996). The time-course of development differed between genders. Reported here are findings of further analysis of data from the study cohort, comprising 1020 ears of 510 pre-term neonates ...

Transcutaneous bilirubin in the pre-term infants.

OBJECTIVE 1) To evaluate the accuracy of transcutaneous bilirubin (T(C)B) measurement compared to total serum bilirubin level (TSB) in the pre-term infants and 2) To establish cut-off values of T(C)B that indicated need for TSB. MATERIAL AND METHOD Premature infants whose birth weight was more than 1,000 grams and gestational age less than 36 weeks had paired T(C)B-TSB assessment when jaundic...
