DOI: 10.1016/j.pedneo.2021.12.012
Abstract: BACKGROUND Several cut-off points for 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) levels have been proposed to determine vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency. However, the level for 25(OH)D deficiency in early infancy remains unclear. The serum 25(OH)D value at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0007114521001975
Abstract: Abstract Iron deficiency (ID) in early life is associated with morbidities. Most fetal iron required for infant growth is acquired in the third trimester from maternal iron store. However, how prenatal iron level affects ferritin… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bjd.17626
Abstract: Atopic dermatitis (AD) usually begins in infancy, commonly involving the cheeks and extensor surfaces of the extremities. It is associated with a dysfunctional skin barrier, which can be measured as increased transepidermal water loss (TEWL)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1542/peds.2018-1489
Abstract: By following a birth cohort through 2 years of age, Bifidobacterium abundance in early infancy was seen to predict better vaccine responses later in life. BACKGROUND: The intestinal microbiome in early infancy affects immunologic development… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/jiaps.jiaps_217_20
Abstract: Acquired Rectovaginal Fistula (RVF) is rare in infants. Interleukin10/ Interleukin 10 receptor deficiencies are monogenic disorders presenting as aggressive forms of infantile onset inflammatory bowel disease with perianal abscess and fistula. Genetic studies assist in… read more here.
