Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection01:26

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection

14.3K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Attachment

640
Attachment is vital for infant development, as warm social interactions support growth and well-being. In a classic 1958 study by Harry Harlow, the significance of warmth and comfort in forming attachments was examined. Harlow separated newborn monkeys from their mothers and provided two artificial "mothers": one made of cold wire and the other covered in soft cloth. Despite the wire mother offering food, the infant monkeys preferred the comfort of the cloth mother, demonstrating that...

Socioemotional Development during Infancy

999
Socio-emotional development in infancy is primarily shaped by early emotional responses and social connections, with temperament playing a central role. Temperament refers to the consistent patterns in an individual's emotional and behavioral responses, observable even in infancy. By examining temperament, researchers can better understand an infant's unique ways of interacting with the world, influencing subsequent personality and socio-emotional growth.

Relationship with Parents: Attachment01:28

Relationship with Parents: Attachment

300
Parent-child interactions lay the foundation for how we understand relationships throughout life. These interactions are not uniform across families; instead, they are shaped by a range of environmental, emotional, and behavioral factors unique to each caregiver-child dynamic. Social psychologists study these early relationships to understand how patterns formed in infancy influence social functioning and interpersonal behavior in adulthood.Attachment Theory and Early Relational ModelsJohn...

Factors Affecting Protein-Drug Binding: Patient-Related Factors01:29

Factors Affecting Protein-Drug Binding: Patient-Related Factors

389
Protein-drug binding, a pivotal aspect of pharmacokinetics, is subject to considerable variability influenced by an array of patient-related factors. The intricate interplay of age, individual differences, and pathological conditions significantly impact the binding dynamics and subsequent pharmacological effects.
Age stands as a key determinant in protein-drug binding. Neonates, characterized by low albumin content, experience heightened concentrations of unbound drugs such as phenytoin and...

Factors Affecting Pulmonary Ventilation01:19

Factors Affecting Pulmonary Ventilation

3.5K
Besides the pressure difference between the external environment and the lungs, the airflow rate and ease of pulmonary ventilation are also influenced by three other factors: surface tension of the fluid in the alveoli, compliance of the lungs, and airway resistance.
Alveolar Surface Tension
The alveolar fluid lines the luminal surface of the alveoli and exerts a force called surface tension. This force is caused by the polar water molecules in the liquid being more strongly attracted to each...

Summary

Newborn bed-sharing is linked to factors like lack of a safe sleep space and breastfeeding. Formula feeding and crib sleeping were found to reduce the risk of bed-sharing.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Public Health
  • Neonatal Care

Background:

  • Bed-sharing poses risks including sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and accidental suffocation.
  • Identifying risk factors for newborn bed-sharing is crucial for developing targeted prevention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate and identify key risk factors associated with bed-sharing practices among newborns.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was administered to postpartum mothers recruited from a university maternity service.
  • Data collected included demographic, environmental factors, and self-reported newborn bed-sharing and sleep environments.

Main Results:

  • Of 1261 mothers surveyed, 6.3% reported bed-sharing.
  • Referral to a nurse (OR=10) and non-standard sleep locations (OR=7.1) increased bed-sharing risk.
  • Formula feeding (OR=0.4) and crib sleeping (OR=0.49) decreased bed-sharing risk.

Conclusions:

  • Infants without designated safe sleep spaces, those with health issues, and breastfed infants are more prone to bed-sharing.
  • Future interventions should focus on addressing these identified risk factors to improve infant sleep safety.
