Alzheimer’s Drug may help to Prevent Cerebral Palsy

The study has been published in the Journal of Neuroscience.

Operating Room Fire Burns Woman’s Face
What was supposed to be a routine outpatient surgery for a Florida woman became a nightmare when a flash fire burned her face and neck. 29-year-old Kim Grice was going through surgery to remove some growths from her head, surgery that should have been routine and uneventful.

Final weeks of pregnancy are critical
.!. Babies born just a few weeks prematurely are more than three times as likely to have cerebral palsy than full-term infants. In fact, those last few weeks of pregnancy are critical to a child’s health and development. New research indicates that late preterm infants (those born 34-36 weeks gestation) had a much higher risk of developmental delays than babies born full-term. The earlier an infant is born, the higher the risk of some neuro-developmental problems, the research shows. For example, infants born between 30 and 33 weeks gestation were nearly eight times as likely as full-term infants to have cerebral palsy. This adds to the growing body of evidence showing that being born just a few weeks too soon can have lasting consequences that can no longer be described as temporary or benign. These findings reinforce the message that a few extra weeks of pregnancy can have a beneficial…
