Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury is one of the major drawbacks of mortality and causes significant short/long-term neurological dysfunction in newborn infants worldwide. To date, due to multifunctional complex mechanisms of brain injury, there is no well-established effective strategy to completely provide neuroprotection. Although thera...

In 2 previous studies, we have shown the ability of special machine learning systems applied to standard EEG data in distinguishing children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) from non-ASD children with an overall accuracy rate of 100% and 98.4%, respectively. Since the equipment routinely available in neonatology units employ few derivations, we ...

While phenobarbital (PB) is commonly used for the management of seizures in newborns and pediat-rics, its administration may accompany with acute poisoning. We aimed to review the literature to find out the frequency of PB poisonings in newborns and children with seizures. Literature search was performed by two independent reviewers to find relevan...

In Central-Africa, neonatal infections, asphyxia and prematurity are main reasons for admission to the neonatal intensive care unit and major determinants of newborn survival. Also, the outcome of newborns with congenital anomalies is expected to be poor, due to a lack of state-of-the art care. We conducted a study of 102 newborns recruited in the ...
