Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy, Cell Damage
Use of Melatonin for Neuroprotection in Asphyxiated Newborns
Protection of brain development is a major aim in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) occurs in 3-5 per 1000 births. Only 47% of neonates have normal outcomes.

Hypothermia Neonatal
Electricity-free Infant Warmer for Newborn Thermoregulation in Rwanda
Hypothermia contributes to a significant portion of neonatal deaths. Kangaroo mother care (KMC) is a safe and effective method of warming; however, it is not always feasible, and not possible in settings such as resuscitation or…

Neonatal Encephalopathy
Magnetic Resonance Biomarkers in Neonatal Encephalopathy
N-acetylaspartate (NAA) is a surrogate neuronal marker and its proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) signal decreases with increasing neuronal mortality associated with cerebral hypoxia-ischaemia.

Hypothermia, Morbidity
Perinatal Hypothermia, Risk Factors and Long-Term Consequences in Guinea-Bissau, Westafrica
Low body temperature (hypothermia (HT)) at birth contributes to infant mortality in low-income countries. A study from Guinéa-Bissau indicates that HT results in an increased mortality rate, which persist at least two months…
