Maternal risk factors for preterm birth in Taiwan, a Nationwide Population-based Cohort Study
The rate of preterm birth is increasing globally. It causes significant short-term and long-term health care burdens. A comprehensive recognition of the risk factors related to preterm births is important in the prevention of preterm birth. Our study is to investigate the incidence and maternal risk factors of preterm birth from a nationwide population-based perspective. (Source: Pediatrics and Neonatology)

Concurrent validity of the Ages and Stages Questionnaires with Bayley Scales of Infant Development-III at 2 years – Singapore cohort study
With increasing acceptance of universal developmental screening in primary care, it is essential to evaluate the local validity and psychometric properties of commonly used questionnaires like the parent-completed Ages and Stages Questionnaires, 3rd Edition (ASQ-3) in identifying developmental delays.The aim of this study is to assess the convergent validity of the ASQ-3 with the Bayley Scales of Infant Development-3rd edition (Bayley-III) in identifying developmental delay in a low-risk term cohort in Singapore.

Pathophysiological and clinical point of view on Kawasaki disease and MIS-C
This article compares two important pathophysiological states, Kawasaki disease, and multisystem inflammatory syndrome, in children associated with COVID-19 (MIS-C). Both occur predominantly in children, have a temporal association with an infectious agent, and are associated with immune-system alteration and systemic inflammation under certain circumstances. The two share common pathophysiology, including enhancement of interleukin-1 neutrophils, activation of the inflammasome, pyroptosis, or NETosis. (Source: Pediatrics and Neonatology)

Totally anomalous pulmonary venous drainage presenting with cardiovocal (Ortner's) syndrome
Cardiovocal syndrome is a clinical entity manifested by hoarseness.1,2 This syndrome is due to the left recurrent laryngeal nerve (LRLN) palsy caused by cardiovascular pathology.1,2 Although various cardiovascular pathologies, such as mitral stenosis, atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, and patent ductus arteriosus, can lead to LRLN palsy,3 cardiovocal syndrome caused by totally anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (TAPVD) has never been reported in the English literature, based on our analysis.
