Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

Thirteen caregivers (12 parents and 1 grandparent) completed interviews and experienced NICU stays with 10 infants (8 singletons and 1 set of twins). Although we aimed to recruit multiple types of caregivers (ie, parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles) in this study, only 1 nonparent caregiver was successfully recruited.

Development and Beta Validation of an mHealth-Based Hearing Screener (SRESHT) for Young Children in Resource-Limited Countries: Pilot Validation Study

Development and Beta Validation of an mHealth-Based Hearing Screener (SRESHT) for Young Children in Resource-Limited Countries: Pilot Validation Study

In India, the prevalence of hearing loss among neonates and infants is 5 per 1000 [2], and it ranges between 6% and 16% among children [3]. However, procuring and maintaining the recommended objective screening instruments like otoacoustic emissions and auditory brainstem response has not been viable at scale. Even in several other LMICs, only paper-pencil–based checklists are used to screen hearing loss, for example, Bangladesh [4], Thailand [5], Ecuador [6], Kenya [7], and Brazil [8].

Peer Review of “Pentavalent Vaccine: How Safe Is It Among Infants Accessing Immunization in Nigerian Health Facilities (Preprint)”

Peer Review of “Pentavalent Vaccine: How Safe Is It Among Infants Accessing Immunization in Nigerian Health Facilities (Preprint)”

The study [1] aims to assess the safety of administering the pentavalent vaccine to infants in Nigeria by evaluating the incidence and severity of adverse events following immunization (AEFIs). The main objective is to provide local evidence via surveillance on the vaccine’s safety among infants administered in Nigerian health facilities, providing evidence that the benefits of vaccination outweigh any potential risks.

Clinical Data Flow in Botswana Clinics: Protocol for a Mixed-Methods Assessment

Clinical Data Flow in Botswana Clinics: Protocol for a Mixed-Methods Assessment

For example, UNICEF highlights Botswana’s strong HIV early infant diagnosis program but notes the long turnaround times for results and lack of HIV-exposed infants’ final infection status. The report further states, “Key PMTCT variables have poor quality data thought to be associated with lack of understanding of the required data and lack of uniformity in recording and reporting” [15].

Assessing the Evidence for Nonobstetric Risk Factors for Deformational Plagiocephaly: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Assessing the Evidence for Nonobstetric Risk Factors for Deformational Plagiocephaly: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia was investigated as a risk factor for DP by Ifflaender et al [29], who included a cohort of infants born prematurely. The study reported that bronchopulmonary dysplasia was not associated with DP. Chronic lung disease grade II was investigated by Launonen et al [34], who also assessed DP risk factors in infants born prematurely. The study reported that chronic lung disease grade II was associated with DP. Family history of DP was investigated by van Cruchten et al [9].

Exploring the Birthday Week Effect on Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease in Yunnan Province, China, From 2008 to 2022: Surveillance Data Analysis

Exploring the Birthday Week Effect on Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease in Yunnan Province, China, From 2008 to 2022: Surveillance Data Analysis

However, no studies have examined the relationship between birthdays and HFMD, an infectious disease that primarily affects infants and children. In China, the national infectious disease surveillance system records the date of onset and birth date of the patient, providing an opportunity to study the birthday rhythm phenomenon in major infectious diseases such as HFMD.
