Journal ArticleDOI
Parents and Procedures: A Randomized Controlled Trial
TL;DR: The results of this study challenge the traditional belief that parental presence negatively affects the ability to successfully complete procedures and encourage parents who want to be present to stay during procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prematurity, chorioamnionitis, and the development of recurrent wheezing: a prospective birth cohort study.
Rajesh Kumar,Yunxian Yu,Rachel E. Story,Jacqueline A. Pongracic,Ruchi Gupta,Colleen Pearson,Kathryn Ortiz,Howard Bauchner,Xiaobin Wang +8 more
TL;DR: A strong joint effect of prematurity and chorioamnionitis on early childhood wheezing was found, and this effect was stronger in African American subjects.
