Delays in immunizations of high-risk infants during the first two years of life: special care for the high-risk infant should not mean special immunization schedules.

Because experience in our newborn intensive care unit follow-up clinic since 1982 suggested that immunizations of newborn intensive care unit graduates in the first 2 years of life were inappropriately delayed, questionnaires were sent to families…

Update on antiviral therapy for genital herpes infection.

For the primary infection of genital herpes, antiviral therapy with acyclovir is the gold standard. For recurrences, there are two options: antiviral treatment of each outbreak as it arises, or suppression of outbreaks with daily oral therapy.…

Lung fluid absorption is induced in preterm guinea pigs ventilated with low tidal volumes.

The objective of this study was to determine if low tidal volume (V(t)) ventilation was beneficial when ventilating preterm fetuses. The authors ventilated preterm guinea pig fetuses at gestation day (GD) 67, 3 days before birth, newborn, and…

The anabolic effects of vitamin D-binding protein-macrophage activating factor (DBP-MAF) and a novel small peptide on bone.

Vitamin D-binding protein-macrophage activating factor (DBP-MAF) has previously been shown to stimulate bone resorption and correct the skeletal defects associated with osteopetrosis in two nonallelic mutations in rats. This same protein and a small…

Development of social vocalizations in mice.

Adult mice are highly vocal animals, with both males and females vocalizing in same sex and cross sex social encounters. Mouse pups are also highly vocal, producing isolation vocalizations when they are cold or removed from the nest. This study…

Analyzing the most frequent disease loci in targeted patient categories optimizes disease gene identification and test accuracy worldwide.

BACKGROUND: Our genomewide studies support targeted testing the most frequent genetic diseases by patient category: (1) pregnant patients, (2) at-risk conceptuses, (3) affected children, and (4) abnormal adults. This approach not only identifies most…

RNA interference for CFTR attenuates lung fluid absorption at birth in rats.

BACKGROUND: Small interfering RNA (siRNA) against alphaENaC (alpha-subunit of the epithelial Na channel) and CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) was used to explore ENaC and CTFR function in newborn rat lungs. METHODS:…

Repackaging of Intravenous Fat Emulsions: A Clinical Conundrum.

To accommodate small fluid volumes, repackaging of intravenous fat emulsions (IVFEs) is frequently performed in institutions providing parenteral nutrition to neonates and smaller pediatric patients. However, some consider this an unsafe practice.…

Leading inhibition to neural oscillation is important for time-domain processing in the auditory midbrain.

A number of central auditory neurons exhibit paradoxical latency shift (PLS), a response characterized by longer response latencies at higher sound levels. PLS neurons are known to play a role in target ranging for echolocating bats that emit…

Central nervous system integration of sensorimotor signals in oral and pharyngeal structures: oropharyngeal kinematics response to recurrent laryngeal nerve lesion.

Safe, efficient liquid feeding in infant mammals requires the central coordination of oropharyngeal structures innervated by multiple cranial and spinal nerves. The importance of laryngeal sensation and central sensorimotor integration in this system…

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia prevents absorption of distal air space fluid in late-gestation rat fetuses.

We hypothesized that congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) may decrease distal air space fluid absorption due to immaturity of alveolar epithelial cells from a loss of the normal epithelial Na+ transport, as assessed by amiloride and epithelial Na+…
