• Neonatal hyperglycaemia is associated with worse neurodevelopmental outcomes in extremely preterm infants (16 April, 2021)

  Itay Zamir, Elisabeth Stoltz Sjöström, Fredrik Ahlsson, Ingrid Hansen-Pupp, Fredrik Serenius, Magnus Domellöf

  Neonatal hyperglycemia itself is associated with lower IQ scores and worse motor outcome at 6.5 years, while insulin was not associated with poorer or better outcome in EXPRESS cohort survivors.

  Sagori Mukhopadhyay, Karen M Puopolo, Nellie I Hansen, Scott A Lorch, Sara B DeMauro, Rachel G Greenberg, C Michael Cotten, Pablo J Sanchez, Edward F Bell, Eric C Eichenwald, Barbara J Stoll

• Can EEG accurately predict 2-year neurodevelopmental outcome for preterm infants? (19 April, 2021)

  Rhodri O Lloyd, John M O'Toole, Vicki Livingstone, Peter M Filan, Geraldine B Boylan

  Prospective single centre study of the use of EEG (at 3 gestational ages 72 hours after birth, 32 and 35 weeks corrected) to predict outcome in 57 preterm infants. the study suggest that EEG at 35 weeks is a predictor of outcome at 2years.
