DOI: 10.1002/jia2.25456
Abstract: Exposure to maternal HIV may affect early child development (ECD), although previous studies have reported heterogeneous findings. We evaluated ECD among children who were HIV‐exposed uninfected (CHEU) and children who were HIV‐unexposed (CHU) recruited to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00431-019-03477-7
Abstract: HIV-uninfected children exposed prenatally to the virus and to prophylactic antiretroviral therapy are at an uncertain risk of long-term myocardial dysfunction. This study aimed to analyse the structure and function of their ventricles and to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11904-019-00459-0
Abstract: The population of HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) children is expanding rapidly, and over one million HEU infants are born each year globally. Several recent studies have reported that HEU children, particularly in low- and middle-income countries,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2020.102891
Abstract: Background Children are particularly susceptible to tuberculosis. However, most children exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis are able to control the pathogen without evidence of infection. Correlates of human protective immunity against tuberculosis infection are lacking, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/dev0001319
Abstract: HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) children during the preschool and early school ages may be at-risk for neurodevelopmental challenges due to in utero and perinatal exposure to HIV and/or antiretroviral (ARV) medications. HEU children and HIV-unexposed uninfected… read more here.

DOI: 10.1089/aid.2016.0265
Abstract: BACKGROUND While children's exposure to environmental lead in the U.S. has decreased, areas of elevated levels remain. Because lead exposure is a risk factor for developmental delays, it should be considered when studying neurodevelopmental effects… read more here.

Abstract: Introduction: HIV-exposed, uninfected (HEU) infants are potentially at risk for cardiovascular disease due to in utero exposures. Feeding practices of the infant could compound this risk. Few studies have, however, evaluated dietary intake of HEU… read more here.
