Alcohol consumption in a general antenatal population and child neurodevelopment at 2 years

This study examines the association between PAE in the general antenatal population and child neurodevelopment at 2 years, accounting for relevant factors.

Linking FANTOM5 CAGE peaks to annotations with CAGEscan

Here, we present the production and quality control of CAGEscan libraries from 56 FANTOM5 RNA sources

Hospital use in Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal patients with chronic disease

Aboriginal people use health services in a different manner when compared to non-Aboriginal people

Potential impact of a maternal vaccine for RSV: A mathematical modelling study

REACH: study protocol of a randomised trial of rehabilitation very early in congenital hemiplegia

Congenital hemiplegia is the most common form of cerebral palsy (CP). Children with unilateral CP show signs of upper limb asymmetry by 8 months corrected age (ca) but are frequently not referred to therapy until after 12 months ca. This study compares the efficacy of infant-friendly modified constraint-induced movement therapy (Baby mCIMT) to infant friendly bimanual therapy (Baby BIM) on upper limb, cognitive and neuroplasticity outcomes in a multisite randomised comparison trial.
