... Unklar ist, inwieweit auch die frühkindliche Entwicklung und Gesundheit beeinflusst wurden. Einerseits wurde eine Zunahme von Regulationsschwierigkeiten und kindlichen Entwicklungsverzögerungen beobachtet [13], andererseits gibt es empirische Hinweise auf positive Auswirkungen der Familiensituation in der Pandemie, bspw. bezüglich stärker prosozialen Verhaltens der Kinder [14]. ...

... A cohort study of 833 pregnant women, assessed once during pregnancy and second at 12 weeks postpartum to consider risk and resilience factors for mother-infant bonding, reported that covid related distress and prenatal depression and anxiety predicted a greater likelihood of postpartum depression and poor mother-infant bonding [23]. However, few studies reported no difference in bonding levels despite postpartum depression., but their limitation was covid negative status, cross-sectional, and no accountability of covid-related worries(alter bonding) and breastfeeding practices(Enhance bonding) in those studies [24,25]. Our study included covid positive women; hence, more COVID-19-related stress and breastfeeding worries can affect the quality of a mother's interaction with her infant during feeding or play. ...

... Like prematurity, birth weight is a relevant parameter for public health. LBW is associated with hypertension, sleep-disordered breathing, kidney disease, neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, and metabolic risk (35,36). SGA is a risk factor for a number of diseases from the neonatal period to adulthood. ...

... (107/163). WES is a powerful diagnostic tool in critically ill neonates and infants with a high diagnostic rate (Scholz et al. 2021). This nding indicates that the application of WES for fetal prenatal diagnosis can effectively reduce the number of births of children with genetic diseases. ...

... Evidence on the efficacy of HSCT in MLII is still scarce. The combined international experience in the use of HSCT for MLII are only 23 patients, and only 3 cases have been reported in detail (11)(12)(13). Hematopoietic donor cells can produce functional M6Pcontaining lysosomal enzymes, which can be taken up intracellularly and transported to lysosomes for the degradation of macromolecules (14). ...

... We are aware of just one other published qualitative study about the experiences of adults born preterm. 12 Because most adult healthcare providers have yet to acknowledge and factor this experience into patient care, individuals born preterm are finding alternative avenues to be seen. Adults born preterm report seeking online community and support, connecting globally with people over shared early life experiences, while simultaneously making their needs and identities known. ...

... They attempt to satisfy high energetic needs by using glucose from still low glycogen and even structural protein stores [124], frequently resulting in depletion and hypoglycemia. Adding to this, immaturity of enzymatic activity may limit metabolic defense processes for several weeks [125][126][127]. Undiagnosed and untreated, hypoglycemia causes brain damage and may lead to death. ...

... The concentration of IL-6 in fetal blood appears to change with advancing gestational age [309,310] and with the presence or absence of labor [311][312][313][314][315][316]. Therefore, consideration should be given to the original findings that were based on preterm gestations and that the results and cutoff values may differ if sampling occurs after labor (i.e., umbilical cord blood obtained after spontaneous labor). ...

... For athletes and other professional fields, the ability to monitor body temperature without affecting athletic performance during exercise is critical to analyze the actual metabolism and real-time status of the body, adjust the off-site training plan, and reasonably distribute stamina consumption on the field [14]. 5. ...
