A multicentre prospective study reveals that infants developing moderate-to-severe BPD exhibit significant lung aeration and gas exchange deficits as early as day 10, with a critical pathophysiological peak at 26 days of life, regardless of
A Jamaican randomized clinical trial demonstrates that a primary care-based parenting program using a blended delivery of home visits and phone calls significantly improves child developmental outcomes and parenting behaviors, offering a sc
A randomized clinical trial in Jamaica demonstrates that a hybrid model of in-person and remote parenting support delivered via primary care significantly improves child developmental outcomes and parenting behaviors, offering a scalable so
A comprehensive study highlights that over half of publicly insured children develop neurodevelopmental disorders within five years of infant cardiac surgery. While service utilization is high, a critical gap persists between initial screen
A systematic review of 1,802 patients reveals that COL7A1 variant type and location, particularly premature termination codons and NC1 domain involvement, are definitive predictors of clinical severity and systemic complications in recessiv
An Italian multicentric study reveals that while ETI therapy significantly improves several health markers in Cystic Fibrosis patients, its impact on peak aerobic capacity is modest, emphasizing the indispensable need for structured physica
A cluster-randomised trial in India demonstrates that a school-based behavior change intervention significantly reduces ultra-processed food consumption among adolescents, offering a scalable model for public health strategies in low- and m
A cluster-randomised trial in India demonstrates that a 6-month school-based behavioural intervention significantly reduces ultra-processed food consumption among adolescents by over 1000 Kcal/day, highlighting a scalable strategy to combat
A large-scale longitudinal study reveals that children whose parents suffer firearm injuries face a significant increase in psychiatric diagnoses, particularly trauma-related disorders. These findings highlight the profound secondary psycho
The UNITY study demonstrates that antenatal nipocalimab treatment for severe HDFN effectively reduces fetal risk while resulting in only transient neonatal hypogammaglobulinemia. Findings confirm low fetal drug exposure and robust long-term
A nationwide cohort study of nearly 1 million Israeli males demonstrates that delayed puberty is independently associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes in early adulthood, suggesting it is a marker for long-term metabolic dysfun
A 5-year prospective study from the Teen-LABS cohort reveals that early post-operative complications are a primary driver of long-term healthcare utilization in adolescents following bariatric surgery, emphasizing the need for targeted long
A secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial reveals that parent-led enhanced developmental intervention, beginning in the NICU and spanning two years, significantly improves executive function domains—including attention, inhibition
The MIST+ trial demonstrates that intranasal saline is as effective as mometasone for pediatric sleep-disordered breathing, suggesting a conservative 3-month saline trial can resolve symptoms in half of patients and potentially reduce the n
A large-scale longitudinal study reveals that cumulative prenatal adversities dose-dependently increase psychopathology risk and accelerate cortical thinning in adolescents, highlighting the long-term impact of fetal programming on mental h
New clinical trials reveal that adding acetaminophen or hydromorphone to ibuprofen provides no additional pain relief for children with acute musculoskeletal injuries, while the addition of opioids significantly increases the risk of advers
This article evaluates the clinical evidence supporting leucovorin for autism spectrum disorder and examines the FDA’s controversial proposal to expand its indications based on mechanistic data rather than traditional large-scale clin
A phase 4 trial in The Gambia reveals that maternal Tdap-IPV vaccination provides early mucosal IgG to infants, while the DTwP primary series induces significantly stronger mucosal antibody and T-cell responses than DTaP, despite maternal a
