Authors: Jenabi E, Bashirian S, Khazaei S, Basiri Z
Abstract
This meta-analysis evaluated the association between maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and the risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) among children and adolescents. The search strategy was conducted until December 2018 in databases of PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus. The ORs or HRs with 95% confidence intervals (CI) extracted from eligible studies used as the common measure of association among studies. A significant association was found between overweight women and risk of ADHD among children with the pooled estim...

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia; what should we do to improve its outcomes?
Authors: Sung TJ
Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease of preterm infants with multiple factors affected from prenatal to postnatal periods. Despite the great advances in neonatal care over almost 50 years, the rates of BPD are not decreased and may even have risen. Since more preterm infants even in periviable gestational age are survived nowadays, different stages of lung development have an effect on the pathogenesis of BPD. Hence the definition of BPD had been changed from 'old' BPD and 'new' BPD. In this review, the various definition of BPD, risk factors from prenatal to...

Understanding the importance of cerebrovascular involvement in Kawasaki disease.
Authors: Yeom JS, Cho JY, Woo HO
Abstract
Kawasaki disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis in infants and young children. The natural history of KD has not been fully elucidated because the first case of KD was reported in late 1960s and patients who have recovered will just now entering middle age. Nevertheless, several evidences have raised concerns regarding the subclinical vascular changes in post-KD patients. KD have focused on the coronary artery aneurysms because which are directly associated with fatality. However, aneurysms have been reported in other extra-cardiac muscular arteries and their fate s...
