What Factors Delay Interatrial Communications Closure in the Oval Fossa?

Sun Hyang Lee, Min Kyu Seo, Ga Young Park, Sung Shin Kim

Neonatal Med. 2023;30(2):21-27.

Purpose: In most neonatal intensive care units, echocardiography is performed at the bedside. The lack of closure of interatrial communications (IACs) in the oval fossa can affect mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to establish the rate of spontaneous closure of IACs diagnosed in the neonatal period and predict the...

Association of Moderate Hypothermia at Admission with Short-Term and Long-Term Outcomes in Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants

Soo Hyun Kim, Ji Hye Hwang, Jiyoon Jeong, Jeong Min Lee, Ha Na Lee, et al.

Neonatal Med. 2023;30(2):28-33.

Purpose: Extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants exhibit immature thermoregulation and are easily exposed to hypothermia. We investigated the association between hypothermia on admission with short- and long-term outcomes. Methods: Medical...

Neurodevelopmental Outcomes and Brain Volumetric Analysis of Low-Grade Intraventricular Hemorrhage

Seul Gi Park, Hyo Ju Yang, Soo Yeon Lim, Seh Hyun Kim, Seung Han Shin, et al.

Neonatal Med. 2023;30(2):42-48.

Purpose: Extremely preterm infants are prone to brain injury and underdevelopment. Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is the most common cause of brain injury and a significant risk factor for neurodevelopmental delay in preterm infants. Severe IVH is known to have a poor outcome; however, the outcomes of low-grade IVH remain controversial....

The Impact of Slow Infusion Intermittent Feeding on Gavage Feeding-Associated Cardiorespiratory Deterioration in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Infants

Mi Jin Kim, Hyun Su Kim, Young Hwa Jung, Chang Won Choi

Neonatal Med. 2023;30(2):49-54.

Purpose: Infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) often show cardiorespiratory deterioration during gavage feeding. We aimed to determine whether slow infusion intermittent feeding (SIIF) can reduce respiratory deterioration...

A Neonate Diagnosed with Megalencephaly-Capillary Malformation-Polymicrogyria Syndrome with PIK3CA Mutation

Young Mi Park, Yoon-Myung Kim, Seong Hee Oh, Hyun-Seung Jin

Neonatal Med. 2023;30(2):55-59.

Megalencephaly-capillary malformation-polymicrogyria syndrome (MCAP) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by megalencephaly, polymicrogyria, body overgrowth, and cutaneous capillary malformations. It has been reported recently that MCAP is related to a somatic mosaic mutation in the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA) gene. We report a case of hemimegalencephaly with polymicrogyria...
