TL;DR: Echolucent images of cerebral white matter, seen on cranial ultrasonographic scans of very low birth weight newborns, predict motor and cognitive limitations and indicators of maternal infection and of a fetal inflammatory response are strongly and independently associated with EL.
Journal ArticleDOI
White matter necrosis in very low birth weight infants: neuropathologic and ultrasonographic findings in infants surviving six days or longer.
Nigel Paneth,Raoul Rudelli,William Monte,Evelyn Rodriguez,Jennifer Pinto,Ram Kairam,Elias Kazam +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the very small infants now dying in nurseries have a form of white matter damage that is more extensive than, and in some cases histologically different from, periventricular leukomalacia as originally described.
Journal ArticleDOI
White matter disorders of prematurity: Association with intraventricular hemorrhage and ventriculomegaly

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated variations on the null hypothesis that infants with intraventricular hemorrhage are no more likely than infants without IVH to have white matter damage (WMD) in very preterm infants.
Journal Article
A scoring system for states of sleep and wakefulness in term and preterm infants.
Mark Stefanski,Karl F Schulze,David A. Bateman,Ram Kairam,T A Pedley,Julia Masterson,L S James +6 more
TL;DR: The experience with the system suggests that it is useful for relating sleep state to physiologic variables during neonatal experimental studies and overall agreement between observers in coding individual behavioral patterns was 77.6%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of Probable Mental Disorders Among Pediatric Asthma Patients in an Inner-City Clinic
TL;DR: These findings are the first to provide preliminary evidence suggesting that mental health problems are common among pediatric asthma patients in an inner-city clinic and suggest thatmental health problems in Pediatrics may be associated with elevated levels of medical service use for asthma.
