A 15-year-old boy with sequelae of perinatal asphyxia experienced intractable startle-induced epileptic seizures, which were transiently suppressed with episodic vomiting. His vomiting was associated with adrenocorticotropin and antidiuretic hormone discharge, and the alteration of urinary
BACKGROUND
Depression during pregnancy or after childbirth is the most frequent perinatal illness affecting women. We investigated the length distribution of a trinucleotide repeat in RAI1, which has not been studied in perinatal depression or in the Chinese population.
METHODS
Cases (n=139) with
We report a 37-year-old primigravida with a gastric band who developed the clinical picture of abdominal pain, vomiting and regurgitation coexistent with a cardiotocogram with severe variable decelerations with absent variability at 33 weeks' gestation. After partial improvement with gastric band
Maternal drug addiction has increased in an alarming way over the last ten years. Therefore, the withdrawal syndrome in the newborn has also increased. 53% of the newborns (of chemical dependent mother) studied from 1985 to 1989 in HCP have presented this syndrome. We have analysed: perinatal,
Neonatal adrenal hemorrhage (NAH) is frequently overlooked because the majority of cases are asymptomatic. In this study, we investigated the clinical symptoms, echographic characteristics and incidence of NAH from January 1998 to December 1999 at Cathay General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan. Among 3273
A study of 405 patients revealed that the substitution of 0.1% trichloroethylene for 0.1% methoxyflurane in a previously established technique of anaesthesia led to no remarkable changes in the incidence of postoperative nausea, vomiting or headache. There was, however, an increase in the incidence
Medication errors are probably more common in neonates than is generally appreciated. In Mexican pediatric hospitals, L-carnitine is mainly used for nutritional support and to treat cardiomyopathy secondary to neonatal asphyxia. Using a longitudinal-retrospective approach we assessed the
OBJECTIVE
In response to concern raised on the high rate of maternal mortality in developing countries, this cross-sectional survey was conducted to assess the survival of infants born to mothers who died during the process of child birth.

Polycythemia (venous PCV greater than 65%) in neonates is not an infrequent occurrence. Over the last 2 years out of approximately 1500 admissions to the Neonatal Unit, polycythemia was detected in 46 babies (3.06%). Seventeen (36%) of these babies were preterm and 29 (63%) were term. Approximately
OBJECTIVE
To compare the incidence of feeding problems at the first feed between neonates born with meconium-stained amniotic fluid (MSAF) and those born without MSAF.
METHODS
A prospective observational study conducted over a one-year period.
METHODS
A level 2 neonatal unit.
METHODS

Hypomagnesemia in childhood is relatively frequently noted in the neonatal period due to maternal causes, such as decreased intake due to vomiting, overuse of laxatives, and neonatal causes such as intrauterine growth retardation, birth asphyxia and exchange transfusion. A very rare cause of
Body movements during sleep were observed in 14 full-term sick newborn infants such as perinatal asphyxia, purulent meningitis, meconium aspiration syndrome, melena, porencephaly, and hydranencephaly. Five newborn infants who had recovered from transient vomiting were examined as control. Infants
Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a rare complication of pregnancy that involves persistent nausea and extreme vomiting to an intensity that differentiates HG from nausea and vomiting commonly experienced during pregnancy. Research has suggested potential biological and psychological OBJECTIVE
