Investigators at The Saban Research Institute of Children's Hospital Los Angeles have created a novel model for studying a lung disorder of newborn babies. Their study, published inPLOS ONEon February 10, describes the first model that allows investigators to consider the chronic effects of develop...
However, the occurrence of meconium aspiration syndrome in newborn infants14 suggests that there are some circumstances in which substances dissolved or suspended in amniotic fluid can enter the fetal lungs, which most likely occurs during episodes of augmented fetal breathing15 (or gasping) induced ...

NBS offers the potential for early intervention in order to preserve lung function and nutritional status. There are few, if any, ways of satisfactorily monitoring such babies non-invasively. To date the feasibility of recruiting newborn babies to invasive studies within the first few weeks ...
(272) pointed out that elective premature birth by cesarean section was the usual mode of delivery for IDM and that maternal diabetes was only one risk factor for these babies. Robert et al. (227) subsequently delineated the risk of RDS for diabetic offspring delivered in Boston from 1958 to...

Prof Doyle said babies born very preterm or with very low birthweight often required help with breathing problems after birth, such as assisted ventilation or oxygen treatment, and many would develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
