Abstract:
Breastfeeding affects infant’s health over the shortand long-term horizon. Components of breast milk such as immune cells, cytokines, chemokines, lipids, hormones and enzymes play an important role in protecting breastfed infants and contribute to the development of the immune system. The gut microbiome is one of the important role-players in the development of immunity. Its formation is influenced by many factors, and breastfeeding is considered one of the most significant. The gut microbiota composition significantly differs in breastfed and formula-fed infants. It may explain the reduced ri

Abstract Objectives To benefit from the complex oligosaccharides found in human milk, an infant relies on microbial metabolism of these compounds. The main objective of this study was to determine the abundance of Bifidobacterium infantis human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) metabolizing genes in infant fecal samples. Methods Fecal samples from 40 6-mos-old infants were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted, and quantitative real-time PCR was used to determine the abundance of several genes in B. infantis.

ABSTRACTThis longitudinal study of how preverbal infants communicate with their mothers utilized the situation in which the infant was seated in a highchair at lunchtime. This situation predisposed infants to use communication as a means, since they were often unable to achieve their goals without assistance. It was found that infants' communicative attempts were often unsuccessful; the present study focussed on how infants and mothers worked to establish the infants' intents after communication failures. In the preverbal negotiation of failed messages infants direct communicative behaviours t

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to examine the observer’s role in “infant psychophysics”. Infant psychophysics was developed because the diagnosis of perceptual deficits should be done as early in a patient’s life as possible, to provide efficacious treatment and thereby reduce potential long-term costs. Infants, however, cannot report their perceptions. Hence, the intensity of a stimulus at which the infant can detect it, the “threshold”, must be inferred from the infant’s behavior, as judged by observers (watchers). But whose abilities are actually being inferred? The answer affects all behavior-bas

Some infants are born prematurely or with medical conditions that require them to stay in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Typically, these infants spend most of their time in an incubator as it provides a safe and controlled environment. At times, these infants will need to be transported via helicopter from one hospital to another, which exposes their already fragile bodies to higher levels of vibration. Helicopters, while advantageous for medical transport, generate substantial vibration due to rotor dynamics. Current models of incubators lack specific design for reducing vibrations.

Understanding the biomechanics of breastfeeding requires capturing both positive and negative pressures exerted by infants on the breast. This clinical experimental work utilizes thin, flexible pressure sensors to capture the positive oral pressures of 7 mother-infant dyads during breastfeeding while simultaneously measuring vacuum pressures and imaging of the infants oral cavity movement via ultrasound. Methods for denoising signals and evaluating ultrasound images are discussed. Changes and deformations on the

Abstract:
Premature infants are commonly treated for respiratory problems due to their underdeveloped lungs. Due to Respiratory Distress Syndrome, the infant requires mechanical ventilation or increased inspired oxygen. If the blood oxygen saturation is kept a too high of a level, the infant is at risk for retinopathy of prematurity. A safe level for the infant’s blood oxygen saturation is between 85–92%. An automatic control system would aid nurses in care of premature infants. Since each infant is different, the control system must be robust enough to achieve adequate control of the percentage of oxyg

Abstract:
The acuity card procedure1 is a modified version of the forced-choice preferential looking procedure (FPL)2 that has been used for the past fifteen years to measure grating acuity in individual infants in laboratory settings. In the FPL procedure, the observer's task is to watch the infant through a small peephole and to judge, based on the infant's eye and head movements, whether a black-and-white grating is located to the right or to the left of the peephole. After numerous presentations of at least four spatial frequencies of gratings, acuity is estimated as the (interpolated) spatial frequ

Abstract:
The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) provides participating formula fed infants with free infant formula. This study estimates that, in 2020, about half of all infant formula in the United States was consumed by WIC infants. Federal law requires that WIC State agencies use a cost containment system to reduce infant formula costs. Most State agencies use a single supplier, competitively bid rebate program. The State agency awards a contract to the infant formula manufacturer offering the lowest net wholesale price per unit of infant formula, defined

The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) provides healthy foods and services to low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, as well as to infants and children up to age 5. In 2009, revisions were made to the WIC program to further improve the nutrition and health of infants by providing benefits to promote and support breastfeeding among those who are able and to improve infant feeding practices.

Background: Pertussis vaccination in pregnant women is a strategy currently recommended to foster passive maternal immunity and minimize severe complications from pertussis in not yet completely vaccinated infants. However, the potential interference of maternal antibodies on the development of infant antibody responses induced by childhood whole cell pertussis (wP) and acellular pertussis (aP) vaccination is not well-defined.

Abstract:
The Art at the Start team explore the impact of art participation and art therapy on the psychological wellbeing of 0-3-year-old infants and their caregivers. Early intervention is vital to reduce health inequalities, giving infants the best possible start. We embedded art therapists within four galleries across Scotland as action researchers, developing early intervention services with the galleries, exploring the process and evaluating outcomes. We also supported the set-up of two additional services which ran in parallel. In total 58 pairs of infants and their caregivers accessed art therap
