A study by Saha et al., using advanced panel data analysis techniques and longitudinal data from Matlab, Bangladesh, demonstrates that a short birth interval is the most important pathway to explain neonatal death of the consequent child after a previous adverse neonatal death adjusted for unobserved family heterogeneity [ 4].
Given the lack of diagnostic facilities, and the consequent requirement that children presenting to health facilities with persistent diarrhoea receive only presumptive treatment, we conducted a systematic review.
During the early industrial revolution, with its consequent 'holocaust of children' in the mines and factories, no one registered such deaths, 'no inquests were held on them, and nobody worried about them'.
more nutrient-dense versions of this very common food item would be preferable [ 43] given the study population's poor dietary profile and the consequent proportions of children not meeting NRVs for many nutrients.
We have measured the aluminium content of a number of widely used infant formulas to determine if their contamination by aluminium and consequent issues of child health persists.
19 Ease of travel and increased global migration, with a consequent desire to bring children to visit relatives, are likely important reasons why children comprise such a high proportion of VFR travelers.
Opportunities for chemical exposures and consequent health problems among children are elevated among developing Pacific Rim nations because of child labor and hazardous waste norms.
The disease burden of rotavirus gastroenteritis (RVGE) arises from the combination of a high incidence rate, severity of symptoms leading to hospitalisation (particularly in very young infants), and the consequent distress caused to children and other family members.
There has been a long and significant history documenting the contamination of infant formulas by aluminium [ 3- 9] and consequent health effects in children [ 10- 13].
While its prevalence ranges from 1.5 to 2.5 per 1000 live births with little or no variation among western nations, the importance of cerebral palsy is particularly related to its severity and its consequent burden on affected children, families and societies [ 16].
