The relationship between below average cognitive ability at age 5 years and the child’s experience of school at age 9
Background At age 5, while only embarking on their educational journey, substantial differences in children’s cognitive ability will already exist. The aim of this study was to examine the causal association between below average cognitive ability at age 5 years and child-reported experience of school and self-concept, and teacher-reported class engagement and emotional-behavioural function at age 9 years. Methods This longitudinal cohort study u…
The implementation of a short term integrated IV Antibiotic pathway in the Community in South Dublin
Rationale: To date frail, elderly patients who present to the Emergency Department (ED) for uncomplicated infection are routinely hospitalised for short term IV antibiotic therapy. This is attributed to a 48 hour delay in drug delivery on patient discharge via the OPAT programme. A novel approach initiated by the ED at SVUH to address this gap in service employs an integrated approach between Edith (Emergency Department in the Home) and Southside…
Maternal Immune Activation and Interleukin 17A in the Pathogenesis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder and Why It Matters in the Covid-19 Era
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the commonest neurodevelopmental disability. It is a highly complex disorder with an increasing prevalence and an unclear etiology. Consensus indicates that ASD arises as a genetically modulated, and environmentally influenced condition. Although pathogenic rare genetic variants are detected in around 20% of cases of ASD, no single factor is responsible for the vast majority of ASD cases or that explains their ch…
Below Average Cognitive Ability—An under Researched Risk Factor for Emotional-Behavioural Difficulties in Childhood
Children with below average cognitive ability represent a substantial yet under-researched population for whom cognitive and social demands, which increase in complexity year by year, may pose significant challenges. This observational study examines the longitudinal relationship between early cognitive ability and emotional-behavioral difficulties (EBDs) between the age of three and nine. Participants include 7134 children from the population-ba…
Iron status, body size, and growth in the first 2 years of life
Rapid growth in infancy has been shown to adversely affect iron status up to 1 year; however the effect of growth on iron status in the second year of life has been largely unexplored. We aimed to investigate the impact of growth and body size in the first 2 years on iron status at 2 years. In the prospective, maternal-infant Cork BASELINE Birth Cohort Study, infant weight and length were measured at birth, 2, 6, 12, and 24 months and absolute we…
Iron intakes and status of 2‐year‐old children in the Cork Baseline Birth Cohort Study
Young children are at risk of iron deficiency and subsequent anaemia, resulting in long-term consequences for cognitive, motor and behavioural development. This study aimed to describe the iron intakes, status and determinants of status in 2-year-old children. Data were collected prospectively in the mother-child Cork BASELINE Birth Cohort Study from 15 weeks' gestation throughout early childhood. At the 24-month assessment, serum ferritin, haemo…
Adherence with early infant feeding and complementary feeding guidelines in the Cork Baseline Birth Cohort Study
Objective To describe adherence with infant feeding and complementary feeding guidelines. Design Prospective study of infant feeding and complementary feeding practices were collected as part of the Cork BASELINE Birth Cohort Study. Setting Cork, Ireland. Subjects Data are described for the 823 infants for whom a diary was completed. Results Breast-feeding was initiated in 81 % of infants, and 34 %, 14 % and 1 % of infants were exclusively breast…
