A study shows that the social perception network in the brain is active within weeks of birth, and stronger early connectivity predicts better social attention and fewer difficulties later, providing insights into early autism markers.
A study examined the impact of maternal SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy on neonatal respiratory distress (RD) in uninfected infants. The research found high rates of RD in SARS-CoV-2-exposed uninfected (SEU) infants, with maternal vaccination prior to infection significantly reducing the odds of RD in term infants. Proteomic analysis revealed a robust inflammatory response in SEU infants, indicating potential long-term implications for respiratory health. The study highlights the importance of maternal vaccination in protecting both maternal and neonatal health.
