  • A Survey on the Organization and Operation of Level II/III Neonatal Intensive Care Units in Greece

    Open AccessKosmas Sarafidis, Nicoletta Iacovidou et al.ARTICLEChildren2025

    This survey highlights significant advancements in Level II/III NICU infrastructure and care capabilities, while emphasizing demographic changes and a critical shortage of neonatal nursing staff. These factors should be carefully considered by health authorities in the development of future neonatal care strategic planning in the country

  • Study of Ovarian Damage in Piglets in an Experimental Model of Neonatal Asphyxia

    Open AccessEfstathia-Danai Bikouli, Rozeta Sokou et al.ARTICLEChildren2025

    Background/Objectives : Perinatal asphyxia constitutes a major complication of the perinatal period with well-described effects on multiple organs and systems of the neonate; its impact, though, on the ovaries is hardly known. The objective of the present study was to investigate potential histological alterations of the ovaries in an animal model of perinatal asphyxia with or without resuscitation. Methods : This was a prospective, randomized an…

  • Increase in Breastfeeding Rates in Baby-Friendly Hospitals in Greece

    Open AccessEvangelos Christou, Eftychia Liakou et al.ARTICLEChildren2024

    This study showed that EBF and BF rates are higher in infants born in BFHs compared to non-BFHs both during their hospitalization in the first days of life and during the first 6 months of life. BFHs also play a decisive role in mothers who, due to their socio-economic profile, have lower chances of starting to breastfeed

  • Hemostatic Status of Neonates with Perinatal Hypoxia, Studied via Natem in Cord Blood Samples

    Open AccessMarina Tsaousi, Rozeta Sokou et al.ARTICLEChildren2024

    Our findings indicate decreased fibrinolytic potential in hypoxic neonates in comparison to healthy neonates, suggesting that NATEM could serve as an effective tool for promptly identifying hemostasis dysfunction in this group of neonates

  • A Novel Variant in the TP53 Gene Causing Li–Fraumeni Syndrome

    Open AccessDimitrios T Papadimitriou, Constantine A Stratakis et al.ARTICLEChildren2023

    Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is an autosomal dominant hereditary cancer syndrome associated with germline pathogenic variants in the tumor protein p53 ( TP53 ) gene and elevated risk of a broad range of early-onset malignancies. Patients with LFS are at risk of a second and third primary tumor. A 15-month-old girl consulted for clitoromegaly and pubic hair. Adrenal ultrasound detected a large left adrenal tumor. Left total adrenalectomy confirmed a…

  • Reference Values of Thromboelastometry Parameters in Healthy Term Neonates Using Natem in Cord Blood Samples

    Open AccessAlma Sulaj, Marina Tsaousi et al.ARTICLEChildren2022

    Background : ROTEM assay has gained increasing acceptance as a method for rapid and specific coagulation pathway assessment. However, its use in the neonatal population remains limited since reference ranges have not yet been established. Aims : (1) to determine reference ranges for healthy term neonates of ROTEM parameters using non-activated assay (NATEM) in cord blood samples; (2) to assess whether delivery mode, gender, gestational age, birth…

  • The Rates of Breastfeeding in Baby-Friendly Hospitals in Greece

    Open AccessEftychia Liakou, Evangelos Christou et al.ARTICLEChildren2022

    The results of the first national study on BFH are presented. Despite the improvement of EBF rates in Greece, compared to the latest available data from 2018, reinforcement of EBF promotion measures is required in order to approach the WHO's targets by 2025

  • Reference Values of Thrombolastometry Parameters in Healthy Term Neonates

    Open AccessMartha Theodoraki, Rozeta Sokou et al.ARTICLEChildren2020

    This study provides, for the first time, reference ranges for ROTEM EXTEM/INTEM/FIBTEM values simultaneously in healthy term neonates. The combined evaluation of ROTEM tests increases its diagnostic accuracy, contributing to the expansion of ROTEM use in the neonatal population

  • Nucleated Red Blood Cells

    Open AccessRozeta Sokou, Georgios Ioakeimidis et al.ARTICLEChildren2020

    NRBCs count may be included among the early diagnostic and prognostic markers for sick neonates
