Capturing the antibiotic resistome of preterm infants reveals new benefits of probiotic supplementation
BackgroundProbiotic use in preterm infants can mitigate the impact of antibiotic exposure and reduce rates of certain illnesses; however, the benefit...

The developmental phenotype of motor delay in extremely preterm infants following early-life respiratory adversity is influenced by brain dysmaturation in the parietal lobe
BackgroundResearch indicates that preterm infants requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation often exhibit suboptimal neurodevelopment at follow-up,...

Transcriptomic analysis delineates preterm prelabor rupture of membranes from preterm labor in preterm fetal membranes
BackgroundGlobally, preterm birth remains the leading cause of death in children younger than 5 years old. Spontaneous preterm birth is comprised of...

Potential Role of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Modulating Protein Homeostasis in Oligodendrocytes to Improve White Matter Injury in Preterm Infants
Preterm white matter injury (WMI) is a demyelinating disease with high incidence and mortality in premature infants. Oligodendrocyte cells (OLs) are...

Chorioamnionitis accelerates granule cell and oligodendrocyte maturation in the cerebellum of preterm nonhuman primates
BackgroundPreterm birth is often associated with chorioamnionitis and leads to increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism....

Prediction of glomerular filtration rate maturation across preterm and term neonates and young infants using inulin as marker
Describing glomerular filtration rate (GFR) maturation across the heterogeneous population of preterm and term neonates and infants is important to...

Prenatal risk factors and neonatal DNA methylation in very preterm infants
BackgroundPrenatal risk factors are related to poor health and developmental outcomes for infants, potentially via epigenetic mechanisms. We tested...
