Abstract

Neonates with low birthweight (LBW) represent a vulnerable population. This retrospective study analyzed the birth frequency of diseases detected by neonatal screening (NBS) in normal and LBW neonates in the Czech Republic. Between years 2002 and 2016, the number of screened disorders in the Czech Republic gradually increased from two to 13. Prevalence of screened diseases was calculated for cohorts ranging from 777,100 to 1,277,283 neonates stratified by birthweight. Odds ratio of the association of LBW with each disease was calculated and statistical significance was evaluated using the chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test, as appropriate. Three diseases were associated with higher risk of prevalence in LBW neonates, namely congenital hypothyroidism (OR 2.50, CI 1.92; 3.25), cystic fibrosis (OR 2.44, CI 1.51; 3.94), and long chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (LCHADD) (OR 7.74, CI 2.18; 27.42).
Conclusion: Although the underlying mechanisms are not well understood, results can be hypothesized that LBW (respectively prematurity) may lead to the secondary and often transitory hypothyroidism while cystic fibrosis and LCHADD may manifest already prenatally and result into preterm birth and LBW.
What is Known:
• The percentage of low birthweight (LBW) neonates in the Czech Republic has been increasing.
Previously published studies reported positive association between LBW and congenital hypothyroidism and cystic fibrosis.
What is New:
• The association between LCHADD and LBW has not yet been described.
• LBW can be the first manifestation of cystic fibrosis and LCHADD.

Bildschirmzeit und Myopie: Auf die Dosis kommt es an

  • 20.03.2025
  • Myopie
  • Nachrichten

Mit jeder zusätzlichen Stunde Bildschirmzeit pro Tag steigt das Risiko für Kurzsichtigkeit signifikant an – am stärksten bei Kindern zwischen zwei und sieben Jahren. Aber es könnte eine „sichere“ Nutzungsdauer geben.

Eosinophile Ösophagitis: Doppelte Dosis PPI wirkt besser

Protonenpumpenhemmer führen bei eosinophiler Ösophagitis nur in etwa jedem zweiten Fall zu einer klinischen bzw. histologischen Remission, so das Ergebnis einer Metaanalyse. Verbessern lässt sich die Quote möglicherweise mit einer Dosisverdopplung und der Aufteilung der Tagesdosis.

Mit Probiotika schneller fieberfrei?

Kinder mit fieberhaften Infektionen der oberen Atemwege profitieren möglicherweise von einer unterstützenden Behandlung mit Probiotika. Laut einer Studie aus Mailand steckt dahinter mehr als ein Placeboeffekt.

Hyperpronation beim „Kindermädchen-Ellenbogen“ wohl überlegen

Bei Kindern mit Radiusköpfchen-Subluxation ist die Hyperpronation wohl der klassischen Supinations-Flexionstechnik überlegen, möglicherweise auch im Hinblick auf Schmerzen. Darauf deuten die Ergebnisse einer aktuellen Metaanalyse hin.
