Evaluation of an Early Support Programme in Orthophony

Prospective, interventionnal with minimal risks and constraints, multicentric, non-randomized, open study, to measure the impact of an early support programme in speech and language therapy for vulnerable children (PAPEV-ortho), in children born very prematurely or very hypotrophically, on the incidence of language and communication deficits at the corrected age of …

Multisensory Stimulation Versus White Noise

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two interventions, white noise, and multisensory stimulation, during retinopathy examinations on premature infants. Retinopathy is a common eye disorder among premature infants, which can cause visual impairments if not addressed. The research used a randomized controlled experimental design, with premature infants randomly …

Doxapram Therapy in Preterm Infants (DOXA Trial)

Preterm infants often suffer from apnea of prematurity (AOP; a cessation of breathing) due to immaturity of the respiratory system. AOP can lead to oxygen shortage and a low heart rate which might harm the development of the newborn, especially the central nervous system.

Heart Attack Blood Oxygen Therapy Trial (SSO2 Radial MI)

A lack of blood and oxygen damages the heart muscle potentially causing heart failure and premature death.During the past 25 years, despite intensive research efforts, few, if any new medicines have been shown to prevent heart failure after a heart attack.

Effect of Autologous Cord Blood Mononuclear Cells for Digestive System in Preterm Neonates (ACBMNC)  

Pre-clinical animal studies provide robust evidence regarding the beneficial effect of stem cells for intestinal disease. This single-center, randomized, controlled, blinded trial assessed the effect of a single intravenous infusion of autologous cord blood MNCs (ACBMNCs) in preventing NEC in preterm neonates,and influence on growth and development.

Early Routine vs. Selective Human Milk Fortification in Extremely Preterm Infants

The aim of the project is to study the effects of fortification (using a Human Milk Donor Fortifier) of an exclusive preterm human milk diet on outcome of extremely preterm neonates, born at less or equal to 27 weeks.

Clinical and Genetic Analysis of ROP

Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is a vascular disease affecting the retinas (back of the eye) of low birth weight infants. Although it can be treated effectively if diagnosed early, it continues to be a leading cause of childhood blindness in the United States and throughout the world.

EAS Familial Hypercholesterolaemia Studies Collaboration

If untreated, lifelong exposure to elevated LDL-C results in a substantially increased risk of (premature) cardiovascular disease as compared to the general population. Although FH adverse cardiovascular outcomes are potentially preventable through early identification of FH individuals and initiation of effective treatment, reports shows that FH is under-diagnosed and under-treated.

Early Environmental and Maternal Determinants of Airway Inflammation in Wheezing Disorders in Infants

This study collects data on microbiological, genetic and environmental factors, as well as lung function parameters (e.g. spirometry, body plethysmography, lung-MRI) to assess the complex interaction of predisposing risk factors for impaired lung development and respiratory diseases.
