Multiple Serotonergic Brainstem Abnormalities in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared 5-HT function between SIDS cases and controls, adjusted for postconceptional age and postmortem interval, and performed an exploratory analysis of the correlation between markers and 6 recognized risk factors for SIDS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluctuating pressure-passivity is common in the cerebral circulation of sick premature infants.

TL;DR: Cerebral pressure-passivity was significantly associated with low gestational age and birth weight, systemic hypotension, and maternal hemodynamic factors, but not with markers of maternal infection.
Journal Article

Multiple serotonergic brainstem abnormalities in sudden infant death syndrome. Commentary

TL;DR: Medullary 5-HT pathology in SIDS is more extensive than previously delineated, potentially including abnormal5-HT neuron firing, synthesis, release, and clearance and preliminary neurochemical evidence that may help explain the increased vulnerability of boys to SIDS.
Journal ArticleDOI

NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL FUNCTION IN CHILDREN WITH BLOOD LEAD LEVELS < 10μg/dL

TL;DR: The analyses support prior research that children’s blood levels < 10 μg/dL are related to compromised cognition and highlight that these may especially be related to academic achievement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gray matter injury associated with periventricular leukomalacia in the premature infant

TL;DR: Gray matter lesions occur in a third or more of PVL cases suggesting that white matter injury generally does not occur in isolation, and that the term “perinatal panencephalopathy” may better describe the scope of the neuropathology.
