Abstract

Objective: Hyperglycemia in preterm infants is usually treated with adjustment of glucose intake and, if persistent, with continuous insulin infusion. However, hypoglycemia is a well-known complication of intravenous (iv) insulin treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in extremely preterm infants. Methods: Clinical data from extremely premature infants (<28 weeks of gestation) undergoing CSII treatment for severe hyperglycemia in the neonatal intensive care unit were included. Blood glucose levels during CSII, as well as the nutritional intake and insulin intake were recorded. Data were analyzed and compared to a control group of very preterm infants receiving iv insulin therapy. Results: Normoglycemia rates were best in the iv insulin-cohort (n=22, 50.3%) compared to the CSII group (n=15, 15.6%). Hypoglycemia was very rare in both groups (0.4% vs. 0.0%). CSII therapy appears to require higher insulin doses compared to continuous iv therapy to achieve a similar effect. Subcutaneous Insulin therapy in extremely preterm infants is feasible, at least for prevention of hypoglycemia. However, dose control needs to be improved. Conclusion: The results justify further model validation and clinical trial research to explore a model-based protocol and the use of CSII in this population. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Over the past few decades, the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) on neonates and very young children has increased dramatically in research and clinical settings. However, the specific characteristics of this population and the MRI standards largely derived from adult studies, pose serious practical challenges. The current study aims to provide general methodological guidelines for customized neonatal fMRI by assessing the performance of various fMRI hardware and software applications. Specifically, this article focuses on MR equipment (head coils) and MR sequences (singleband vs. multiband). We computed and compared the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the temporal SNR (tSNR) in different fMRI protocols using a small-size spherical phantom in three different commercial receiver-only head-neck coils. Our findings highlight the importance of coil selection and fMRI sequence planning in optimizing neonatal fMRI. For SNR, the prescan normalize filter resulted in significantly higher values overall, while in general there was no difference between the different sequences. In terms of head coil performance, the 20-channel head coil showed slightly but significantly higher values compared to the others. For tSNR, there was no difference in the usage of the prescan normalize filter, but the values were significantly higher in the singleband EPI sequences compared to the multiband. In contrast to the SNR, the pediatric head coil seems to have an advantage for tSNR. We provide five practical guidelines to assist researchers and clinicians in developing fMRI studies in neonates and young infants. These recommendations are especially relevant considering ethical constraints and exogenous challenges of neonatal fMRI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The article in Acta Paediatrica discusses the importance of olfactory stimulation in neonatal clinical care, particularly in hospital settings where natural smells are disrupted. The review highlights the positive effects of olfactory stimulation on term and preterm infants, such as enhancing feeding, reducing pain and stress, and preventing apnoea. Breastmilk and vanilla were the most frequently studied odorants, showing beneficial outcomes. However, there is a need for further research to understand the full impact of olfactory stimulation on neonatal development and to establish standardized protocols for optimal results.

Abstract

Vitamin A plays a key role in lung development, but there is no consensus regarding the optimal vitamin A dose and administration route in extremely low birthweight (ELBW) infants. We aimed to assess whether early postnatal additional high-dose fat-soluble enteral vitamin A supplementation versus placebo would lower the rate of moderate or severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death in ELBW infants receiving recommended basic enteral vitamin A supplementation. This prospective, multicentre, randomised, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled, investigator-initiated phase 3 trial conducted at 29 neonatal intensive care units in Austria and Germany assessed early high-dose enteral vitamin A supplementation (5000 international units [IU]/kg per day) or placebo (peanut oil) for 28 days in ELBW infants. Eligible infants had a birthweight of more than 400 g and less than 1000 g; gestational age at birth of 32+0 weeks postmenstrual age or younger; and the need for mechanical ventilation, non-invasive respiratory support, or supplemental oxygen within the first 72 h of postnatal age after admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. Participants were randomly assigned by block randomisation with variable block sizes (two and four). All participants received basic vitamin A supplementation (1000 IU/kg per day). The composite primary endpoint was moderate or severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death at 36 weeks postmenstrual age, analysed in the intention-to-treat population. This trial was registered with EudraCT, 2013-001998-24. Between March 2, 2015, and Feb 27, 2022, 3066 infants were screened for eligibility at the participating centres. 915 infants were included and randomly assigned to the high-dose vitamin A group (n=449) or the control group (n=466). Mean gestational age was 26·5 weeks (SD 2·0) and mean birthweight was 765 g (162). Moderate or severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death occurred in 171 (38%) of 449 infants in the high-dose vitamin A group versus 178 (38%) of 466 infants in the control group (adjusted odds ratio 0·99, 95% CI 0·73–1·55). The number of participants with at least one adverse event was similar between groups (256 [57%] of 449 in the high-dose vitamin A group and 281 [60%] of 466 in the control group). Serum retinol concentrations at baseline, at the end of intervention, and at 36 weeks postmenstrual age were similar in the two groups. Early postnatal high-dose fat-soluble enteral vitamin A supplementation in ELBW infants was safe, but did not change the rate of moderate or severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia or death and did not substantially increase serum retinol concentrations.

32. Plasticity-Related Gene 5 Is Expressed in a Late Phase of Neurodifferentiation After Neuronal Cell-Fate Determination

Abstract

During adult neurogenesis, neuronal stem cells differentiate into mature neurons that are functionally integrated into the existing network. One hallmark during the late phase of this neurodifferentiation process is the formation of dendritic spines. These morphological specialized structures form the basis of most excitatory synapses in the brain, and are essential for neuronal communication. Additionally, dendritic spines are affected in neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease or schizophrenia. However, the mechanisms underlying spinogenesis, as well as spine pathologies, are poorly understood. Plasticity-related Gene 5 (PRG5), a neuronal transmembrane protein, has previously been linked to spinogenesis in vitro. Here, we analyze endogenous expression of the PRG5 protein in different mouse brain areas, as well as on a subcellular level. We found that native PRG5 is expressed dendritically, and in high abundance in areas characterized by their regenerative capacity, such as the hippocampus and the olfactory bulb. During adult neurogenesis, PRG5 is specifically expressed in a late phase after neuronal cell-fate determination associated with dendritic spine formation. On a subcellular level, we found PRG5 not to be localized at the postsynaptic density, but at the base of the synapse. In addition, we showed that PRG5-induced formation of membrane protrusions is independent from neuronal activity, supporting a possible role in the morphology and stabilization of spines.

Abstract

The article discusses a study on the effects of olfactory stimuli on the brain oxygenation of healthy newborns. The study found that newborns have a reaction to perfume odor, as demonstrated by changes in regional cerebral blood oxygenation. However, the response pattern varied among the neonates, possibly due to methodological challenges or individual differences in perception and processing of odors. The study highlights the potential of studying individual differences in odor perception and the importance of understanding the role of variable odorants in neonatal development.

Abstract

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to validate a point-of-care C-reactive protein (CRP) test (QuikRead, wide-range [wr] CRP) against standard laboratory testing in neonates with suspected sepsis.MethodsThis was a single-centre prospective cohort study of neonates (n = 91). The main outcome measure was the paired evaluation of the wr-CRP point-of-care test and automated laboratory CRP tests in neonates with suspected sepsis.ResultsThere were 126 measured CRP-sample pairs. The mean difference between the laboratory CRP and the wr-CRP point-of-care test values was 0.19 (95% confidence interval [CI]:‒1.0–0.65). Pearson’s correlation coefficient was 0.94. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.99 (95% CI: 0.98–1.00). At a QuikRead CRP cut-off of ≥6.2, the sensitivity and specificity were 77% and 100%, respectively.ConclusionsPoint-of-care wr-CRP testing can be used as a screening test in neonates with suspected sepsis. Rapid bed-side diagnostics and minimal blood volume requirements present an attractive alternative to common laboratory CRP testing.
