Mild, intermittent oxygen deprivation in preterm infants disrupts brain connectivity, alters neuron development, and may ...

How does mild hypoxia affect preterm babies? New research identifies a molecular mechanism that disrupts hippocampal ...

During intensive care after preterm births, babies can experience low oxygen in their tissue and cells-or hypoxia.

Early life pain exposure alters brain development in preterm infants, particularly female infants, according to a new study. The observational cohort study collected and analyzed data from 150 infants ...

Preterm infants supported with a multicomponent intravenous lipid emulsion saw improved brain development compared to those given a single-fat source, a new study finds. The research will be presented ...

In a cohort of 395 preterm infants (median gestational age, 29.6 weeks), maternal hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) affected 43% of cases and were associated with reduced cognitive and ...

An interdisciplinary team of physicians and scientists show for the first time that a blood protein called fibrin blocks an essential biological process that drives brain development in early life.

Roughly one in ten babies worldwide is born before 37 weeks of pregnancy – a birth considered preterm. These infants are biologically less mature at birth and face a higher risk of developmental ...

Preterm infants born before 32 weeks who received more skin-to-skin contact while in the hospital showed stronger brain development in areas tied to emotion and stress regulation than babies who ...

High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) reduced bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants with neonatal respiratory ...
