Objectives: To investigate the status of neurodevelopmental catch-up and suitable correction termination age in preterm infants of different gestational ages.

Methods: A total of 918 preterm infants without significant high-risk factors who attended the outpatient service of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 1, 2018 to March 1, 2023 were included. The data on developmental quotient (DQ) in Gesell Developmental Schedule (GDS) were collected, while 6 684 full-term infants were included as controls.

Nowadays, the prognostic prediction of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients is still challenging because of the limited predictive properties of existing models. Blood-based biomarkers may provide additional information to the established prognostic factors. Markers of atherosclerosis have been identified as one of the most promising biomarkers for predicting prognosis, and inflammation, in turn, affects atherosclerosis.

Aims: To synthesise and evaluate the effectiveness of virtual reality interventions in preoperative children.

Background: Children consider operations as a predictable threat and stressful event. Children's anxiety before an operation increases as the time draws closer.

Under the guidance and support of national policies in recent years, the community medical system has been developed rapidly, among which primary child healthcare is carried out routinely in community hospitals, greatly alleviating the pressure of specialized pediatric hospitals and departments of pediatrics in secondary and tertiary general hospitals. However, due to the lack of professional training for primary child healthcare personnel in community medical institutions, early symptoms of children with cerebral palsy cannot be identified and so children with cerebral palsy are often unable to receive early diagnosis and intervention, which may affect their prognosis. An article about international expert consensus and recommendations on early identification and referral of cerebral palsy in community medical institutions was published in in 2020.

Objective: To investigate the infection factors associated with neurodysplasia in early and moderately preterm infants at a corrected age of 18 months.

Methods: The preterm infants with a gestational age of 28 weeks to <34 weeks who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit and followed up at the outpatient service for high-risk preterm infants from June 2015 to December 2018 were enrolled as subjects. At a corrected age of 18 months, the revised Bayley Scales of Infant Development was used to evaluate neurodevelopment.

Objective: To investigate the differences between the Test of Infant Motor Performance (TIMP) data from the infants at 38-58 weeks of postconceptual age in three hospitals in Chongqing, China and the America norms, and to provide a reference for the introduction and application of TIMP in China.

Methods: TIMP was used to assess 642 infants with 38-58 weeks of postconceptual age who visited the departments of preterm infants or child healthcare in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University, Shapingba Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Chongqing, and Chongqing Maternal and Child Health Hospital between January and December, 2016. The assessment scores were analyzed and compared with the America norms.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the toxic effects of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), graphene oxide (GO), and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) on zebrafish embryos.
  • Zebrafish embryos were exposed to various concentrations of these nanomaterials, with the effects evaluated on movement, heart rate, hatching rate, larvae length, mortality, and malformations over a 96-hour period.
  • The results showed that RGO significantly inhibited hatching, and both RGO and MWCNTs reduced the length of hatched larvae, indicating toxicity, while no major malformations or mortality were observed.
