Showing results for "early life"
The purposes of this study were to explore what makes for a "good life" from the perspective of young adults with Down syndrome and to identify the barriers...
The current diagnostic pathways for cognitive impairment rarely identify babies at risk before 2 years of age. Very early detection and timely targeted intervention has potential to improve outcomes for these children and support them to reach their full life potential. Early Moves aims to identify early biomarkers, including general movements (GMs), for babies at risk of cognitive impairment, allowing early intervention within critical developmental windows to enable these children to have the best possible start to life.
Quality of life of young people with Down syndrome was most negatively associated with burden of medical conditions, but also with lack of friendships
Data on risk factors for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-associated hospitalisation in Australian children may be informative for preventive measures.
Globally, life expectancy from birth increased from 61·7 years in 1980 to 71·8 years in 2015
High rates of recurrent infection are a major risk to the health of Aboriginal children and are comparable to those of third world countries.
We’re looking to better understand and measure ‘quality of life’ of school aged children with Down syndrome.
Over the last 40 years medical advances in the care of newborn babies has resulted in more children surviving very early “preterm” birth than ever before.
Appropriate use of antibiotics is life-saving in neonatal early-onset sepsis (EOS), but overuse of antibiotics is associated with antimicrobial resistance and long-term adverse outcomes.
Appropriate innate immune function is essential to limit pathogenesis and severity of severe lower respiratory infections (sLRI) during infancy, a leading cause of hospitalization and risk factor for subsequent asthma in this age group.
