Neurodevelopmental, Mental Health, and Parenting Issues in Preterm Infants
The World Health Organization in its recommendations for the care of preterm infants has drawn attention to the need to address issues related to family involvement and support, including education, counseling, discharge preparation, and peer support. A failure to address these issues may translate into poor outcomes that extend across the lifespan. In this paper, we review the often far-reaching impact of preterm birth on the health and wellbein…
Preterm infant mental health in the neonatal intensive care unit
Caregiving relationships in the postnatal period are critical to an infant's development. Preterm infants and their parents face unique challenges in this regard, with infants experiencing separation from parents, uncomfortable procedures, and increased biologic vulnerability, and parents facing difficulties assuming caregiver roles and increased risk for psychological distress. To better understand the NICU parent‐infant relationship, we conduct…

Does an Intervention to Reduce Maternal Anxiety, Depression and Trauma Also Improve Mothers’ Perceptions of Their Preterm Infants’ Vulnerability
To determine if an intervention to reduce maternal distress and address maternal perceptions of infants' vulnerability also reduces perceptions of vulnerability, 105 mothers of premature infants (25- to 34-weeks' gestational age; >600 g) with depression, anxiety, or trauma were randomized to a six- or nine-session intervention or a comparison condition. The outcome was changes in a measure of perception of infant vulnerability between 4 to 5 week…

Differences in adiposity trajectories by birth cohort and childhood social class
BACKGROUND: Since the 1930s, the environment has become increasingly obesogenic, leading to rising rates of adiposity and socioeconomic inequalities in adiposity. Building on studies comparing body mass index (BMI) for cohorts born over a period of 20 years, we examine the social patterning of BMI and central adiposity for three cohorts born over a 40-year period. METHODS: Using data from the West of Scotland Twenty-07 study (n=4510), we investig…
The Health Benefits of Hispanic Communities for Non-Hispanic Mothers and Infants
Objectives. In the United States, Hispanic mothers have birth outcomes comparable to those of White mothers despite lower socioeconomic status. The contextual effects of Hispanic neighborhoods may partially explain this “Hispanic paradox.” We investigated whether this benefit extends to other ethnic groups. Methods. We used multilevel logistic regression to investigate whether the county-level percentage of Hispanic residents is associated with i…
Impact of ethnic density on adult mental disorders
Effectiveness of therapeutic and behavioral interventions for parents of low‐birth‐weight premature infants
Premature birth has been associated with a number of adverse maternal psychological outcomes that include depression, anxiety, and trauma as well as adverse effects on maternal coping ability and parenting style. Infants and children who were premature are more likely to have poorer cognitive and developmental functioning and, thus, may be harder to parent. In response to these findings, a number of educational and behavioral interventions have b…

The association between ethnic density and poor self-rated health among US Black and Hispanic people
Associations between ethnic density and self-rated health are inconsistent and differ by ethnicity and gender
Ethnic Density Effects on Birth Outcomes and Maternal Smoking During Pregnancy in the US Linked Birth and Infant Death Data Set
Objectives. We investigated whether mothers from ethnic minority groups have better pregnancy outcomes when they live in counties with higher densities of people from the same ethnic group—despite such areas tending to be more socioeconomically deprived. Methods. In a population-based US study, we used multilevel logistic regression analysis to test whether same-ethnic density was associated with maternal smoking in pregnancy, low birthweight, pr…

Psychiatric Medications for the Treatment of Pruritus
OBJECTIVES: To review the use of psychiatric medications in the treatment of pruritus. METHODS: A literature review was conducted using the key words pruritus, psychiatric, and treatment. RESULTS: Three categories of pruritus are described: dermatologic, systemic, and psychogenic. Peripheral and central nervous system mechanisms of pruritus are reviewed. Conventional dermatologic treatments for pruritus are contrasted with some of the common psyc…
