Key Findings: Trends in survival among children with Down syndrome in 10 regions of the US
The journal Pediatrics has published a new study that describes how survival among people with Down syndrome has improved in the United States over time.
Key Findings: Hospital Use, Associated Costs, and Payer Status for Infants Born with Spina Bifida
About 18% of babies with spina bifida had more than three hospital stays initiated in their first year of life. The presence of other birth defects seemed to influence the length of stay in the hospital and hospital costs. A special issue of the journal Birth Defects Research (Part A) has recently released a new study online: “Hospital Use, Associated Costs, and Payer Status for Infants Born with Spina Bifida.”
Key Findings: Public Perception of Birth Defects Terminology
The phrase “birth defects” is well-recognized, yet concerns have been raised about its perceived negative connotation. A special issue of the journal Birth Defects Research (Part A) recently published a new study online: “Public Perception of Birth Defects Terminology.”
Key Findings: Use of topiramate in pregnancy and risk of oral clefts
Use of topiramate during the first trimester of pregnancy was associated with an increased risk of oral clefts (i.e., cleft lip with or without cleft palate) in the offspring. The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology has published a new study: “Use of topiramate in pregnancy and risk of oral clefts.”
Key Findings: Lack of Vitamins Containing Folic Acid and Diabetes-Associated Birth Defects
The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology published a CDC study: “Lack of Periconceptional Vitamins or Supplements That Contain Folic Acid and Diabetes Mellitus-Associated Birth Defects”.
Key Findings: Maternal Asthma Medication Use and the Risk of Selected Birth Defects
Researchers used data from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study (NBDPS) to examine maternal asthma medication use during pregnancy and the risk of certain birth defects.
Key Findings: Influencing Clinical Practice Regarding the Use of Antiepileptic Medications During Pregnancy: Modeling the Potential Impact on the Prevalences of Spina Bifida and Cleft Palate in the United States
A special issue of the American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C with a specific focus on teratology―or the study of birth defects and their causes―recently has been published online.
Key Findings: Maternal Treatment with Opioid Analgesics and Risk for Birth Defects
The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology has published a new CDC study: “Maternal Treatment with Opioid Analgesics and Risk for Birth Defects”.
Maternal Smoking & Congenital Heart Defects
The journal Pediatrics has published a new CDC article: "Maternal Smoking and Congenital Heart Defects in the Baltimore-Washington Infant Study".
Clomiphene Citrate
The journal, Human Reproduction, has published a new CDC study: "Use of clomiphene citrate and birth defects, National Birth Defects Prevention Study, 1997–2005."
Birth Defects - New National Estimates
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the National Birth Defects Prevention Network have published a new study updating the national prevalence estimates for selected birth defects in the United States from 2004-2006.
Heart Defects
CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report has published a new study: "Racial Differences by Gestational Age in Neonatal Deaths Attributable to Congenital Heart Defects — United States, 2003–2006.
Updated Estimates for Selected Birth Defects
Birth defects occur in about 3% of live births and are a leading cause of infant death. Tracking birth defects helps us understand trends and strengthen prevention programs.
Key Findings: Mortality Resulting From Congenital Heart Disease Among Children and Adults in the United States, 1999-2006
The American Heart Association’s journal Circulation has published a new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study entitled "Mortality Resulting From Congenital Heart Disease Among Children and Adults in the United States, 1999-2006".
Spina Bifida Prevalence
Pediatrics, the Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, has published a new CDC study: "Prevalence of Spina Bifida Among Children and Adolescents in 10 Regions in the United States."
