Children are now using e-cigarettes at higher rates than adults.
Tom Gatehouse and colleagues argue for an approach to regulation that prioritises children’s rights and protects them

Tijdens de 1e corona #lockdown waren er plots veel minder vroeggeboortes. Kan ons dit meer leren over hoe we #vroeggeboorte kunnen voorkomen?

Exposure to antenatal corticosteroids was associated with increased risks of respiratory and nonrespiratory infections in full-term and late preterm children up to age 21, but no association was found in children born before 34 weeks’ gestation.

Convergence researchers @jaspervbeen.bsky.social and Pilar Garcia-Gomez with colleagues and collaborators show that prenatal exposure to extreme temperatures negatively impacts on birth outcomes. This underscores the need for targeted public health policies.

More evidence showing that investment in early child health and development pays off
NEW: Sure Start generated widespread, long-lasting benefits for children in education, health, absences, and SEND.
Every £1 of up-front spending on Sure Start could generate around £2 in total benefits over the long run.

In this study, Hindes et al examine evidence for adverse birth and pregnancy outcomes. They find that reduced rates of preterm birth and increased positive screening rates for possible antenatal depression are associated with the first lockdowns.
The association of COVID-19 lockdowns with adverse birth and pregnancy outcomes in 28 high-income countries: a systematic review and meta-analysis - Nature Human Behaviour
In this systematic review and meta-analysis of 132 studies, Hindes et al. examine evidence for adverse birth and pregnancy outcomes. They find that reduced rates of preterm birth and increased positive screening rates for possible antenatal depression are associated with the first lockdowns.
