The relationship between lung liquid flow and fetal lung development has been studied at
the cellular level using ultrastructural techniques. Continuous in utero tracheal ligation and …

We studied the effects of alterations in lung fluid volume on growth and maturation of the
fetal lung. In a chronic fetal sheep preparation, right fetal lung volume was decreased by …

In the sheep, fetal lung development proceeds to a later stage of maturity than in smaller
laboratory animals. Of the four stages in pulmonary development recognizable in this …

BACKGROUND: This study sought to assess the relationship between the development of
infant sleep/wake patterns, temperament and overall mental, motor and behavioural …

Actigraphy has been widely used in adults and children. In infants, validation of actigraphy
has typically used a comparison with behaviorally determined sleep state classification …

Background: Currently, there is no consistent evidence that breast feeding reduces the risk
for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Arousal from sleep is believed to be an important …

Since the reduction in the incidence of the prone sleeping position, maternal cigarette
smoking has become the strongest modifiable risk factor for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome …

This study has examined left (LV) and right ventricular (RV) myocardial morphometry in
perfusion-fixed hearts of late-gestation sheep fetuses, neonatal lambs, and adult sheep …

Objective: To investigate whether the prone sleeping position impaired arousal from sleep in
healthy infants and whether this impairment was related to cardiorespiratory variables …

We have compared the roles of neurologic maturity and environmental time cues in the
development of the entrained circadian sleep-wake rhythm in the preterm and term human …
