Abstract:

Bibliography: pages 47-49.<br>This dissertation is based largely on an original study performed by myself and Dr EB Hoffman on 34 neonates with bone and joint sepsis. Our experience of 19 septic hips is the largest in the literature. The study was performed at the Red Cross Children's Hospital in 1987 and 1988. The paper has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (September 1990). The literature has been reviewed in depth and compared with our findings. In order to avoid repetition, I have not included a separate literature review in my dissertation. I have howe

The study was carried out with the support of the Down Syndrome Association and the Down Syndrome Medical Interest Group, and through consultation with clinicians and families.

Abstract:

The differentiation, in an infant with cholestasis, between extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) and the neonatal hepatitis syndrome (NHS) is important in that laparotomy is always indicated in EHBA but is undesirable in NHS. This differentiation is particularly difficult in those infants with complete cholestasis. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy is a commonly used investigation in infants with obstructive jaundice. The scintigraphic demonstration of excretion into the gut excludes extrahepatic obstruction, however, absence of excretion may be due to EHBA, severe cholestasis with patent extrahepatic

Neonatal jaundice is a physiological condition which has potentially deleterious outcomes. Elevated serum bilirubin levels are well-documented antioxidants and have been shown to disrupt cellular membranes of Gram-positive organisms under specific conditions. To determine whether bilirubin had antimicrobial potential against neonatal sepsis organisms, relevant isolates were identified by clinical audit and assessed for sensitivity. 26 clinical isolates including 15 CoNS, 7 GBS, E. coli, E. faecalis, K. oxytoca and A. haemolyticum were characterised biochemically, genetically, and by MALDI Biot

Abstract:

Background: Children born very preterm are at an elevated risk of behavioural adjustment problems, particularly Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or inattention/hyperactivity difficulties. Importantly, these risks remain even after controlling for the effects of social risk factors correlated with very preterm birth. Behavioural outcomes in follow-up studies of children born very preterm are typically assessed using parent reports only. However, the extent to which behavioural problems are evident across multiple contexts (i.e., parent or teacher report) is not well known. Furthe

Background: Prenatal exposure to opioids, cocaine, and methamphetamine is associated with alterations in fetal brain that lead to structural changes in the brain postnatally, contributing to developmental and behavioral effects seen throughout childhood.

Abstract:

Iodine is necessary for thyroid hormones synthesis which in turn are essential for brain development during fetal and early postnatal life. In these critical periods, severe iodine deficiency can induce irreversible brain damage in the fetus and the infant, resulting in retarded cognitive and/or psychomotor development. Despite the introduction of salt iodization programs such as national measures to control iodine deficiency, some European countries, including Belgium, are still affected by Mild Iodine Deficiency (MID) and MID during pregnancy may affect neurodevelopment of the offspring.

There is concern about the recently increasing number of infants born with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), yet little is known about its long-term neurodevelopmental effects.

Abstract:

Background: Very occasionally, when a fetus is developing in the womb, problems occur with the normal processes controlling closure of the muscles of the abdominal wall and, as a result, some of the abdominal contents develop outside of the body. This is known as an abdominal wall defect. If the pregnancy continues to term, the newborn infant will need specialised surgical care. This situation occurs so infrequently that even a dedicated surgical centre will care for very few of these women and their babies in a year.

Abstract:

The dramatic improvement of neonatal intensive care has produced vexing ethical and legal questions. One of the most striking issues is to determine whether the most defective neonates should be provided with intensive care and to what extent they should be treated. This thesis demonstrates that an attempt to answer this question and an analysis of the demands and limitations of a duty to treat defective neonates cannot properly occur without first considering the legal concerns and ethical issues surrounding the notion of "person". The author examines germane ethical theories and North

Abstract:

Introduction: Many medications have an unproven safety profile for use during pregnancy, leading to issues when chronic diseases, such as hypertension and depression, present during pregnancy. The focus of this research programme is to determine whether in utero exposure to antihypertensive and antidepressant medication is associated with increased risk of adverse events at birth, and up to 27 months of age in the child. Methods: Two systematic reviews were performed to identify current published literature and knowledge gaps. Following this, using Scottish healthcare data, a cohort of 268,711
