🌉 bridged from https://nicuverse.org/@stefanjohansson on the fediverse by https://fed.brid.gy/
And, along those lines, next up in this #jens2025 session is @DrVickyPayne in our @99nicu team, sharing a wonderful talk about developing neonatal nursing research capacity and capability.
There is such a large unmet need of this, but the opportunities are few […]

Refl to the #nicuverse from #jens2025 and the talk by Rosemarie Boland about variations in the care of 22week infants - there is IMHO a sound shift in "acceptance" for care at this gest week. It goes without saying that outcomes depend on what/whether care is […]

Another step towards non-invasive respiratory support among extremely preterm infants: nasal HFOV was clearly better than nasal CPAP in reducing the need of intubation, absolute risks were 16 vs 28% the first 72 hours, and 21 vs 34% the first week of life […]

SmallDog<>BigDogAttitude regards to the #nicuverse from XXXI CONGRESSO NAZIONALE SOCIETÀ ITALIANA DI NEONATOLOGIA, in Montesilvano, am here under my Neobiomics hat.
Big interest in IT around probiotics, and ARA:DHA supplementation too.

Interesting MRI study around cognitive impairment in preterm infants. Related (abnormal) brain development seems different in very and moderately preterm infants, respectively.

Basic science but the background message is really that no size will fit all […]

Early severe neonatal morbidity is associated with increased mortality risk beyond childhood. New interesting findings from Swedish register data.

Am at the ESPGHAN conf in Helsinki, great program and lots of people from all corners of the world.
Got a nice notebook from the Novonesis company telling
"The future is unwritten.
Make a note of it."

True that.

Browsing… and this paper popped up, investigating ”Research priorities for the most premature babies born <25 weeks’ gestation”, results in the screen shot.
Crack on!

Prague has a special place in my heart, after being an exchange student at a surgical dept in 1988 and the several visits to follow after the Velvet Revolution in 1989.
Now, my engagement in neonatal nutrition will bring me back, really looking fw!

Read this interesting paper ”Experiences of adults born extremely preterm” and found this interesting paragraph at the end, that they researchers used AI to refine the text. First time I have seen this declared openly, and I think (with broken non-native […]

Interesting paper about plasma transfusions in preterm infants <32w, and the large variations in use in Europe!
Liberal use in Sweden still… despite (per my gut feeling) more strict use nowadays.
During my fellowship, we called FFP ”Vitamin P” because all got […]

Been in Lund today (City of Rocket Science!) for the PhD-halftime-committee for Dr Maria Wilander. Her main supervisor is@olamedmac , so… solid research about cord-clamping!

First paper: bilirubin levels in relation to cord clamping time ( […]
