Send us a textIn this week's Journal Club, Ben and Daphna unpack a wide range of recent neonatal studies with pragmatic, practice-centered discussion. First, they explore a study on low-dose dexamethasone for BPD in preterm infants, showing potential benefits in brain development and motor outcomes—despite ongoing concerns about long-term effects. Next, they discuss a large dataset analysis of oxygen and respiratory support trajectories in extremely preterm infants, offering real-world FiO2 trends and benchmarks that may help frame clinical decisions and counseling.They also examine the diagnostic limits of consumer-grade pulse oximeters, like the Owlet, comparing their accuracy to hospital-grade monitors—raising real concerns about missed events. A safe sleep initiative study offers evidence that modeling and education during birth hospitalization can improve post-discharge sleep practices, especially across different demographic groups. Finally, they review parent engagement with NICU-focused online health communities, identifying both the benefits and potential friction these platforms create in team-family communication.From cerebral oxygenation during kangaroo care to the use of enemas in ELBW infants, this episode covers it all—with a focus on what clinicians can take back to the bedside.Listen in and join the conversation.

Send us a textIn this special anniversary edition of the Journal Club, Ben and Daphna celebrate four years of The Incubator Podcast while diving into a compelling lineup of neonatal studies. The episode kicks off with a review of a phase 2 multicenter trial on the safety of furosemide in preterm infants at risk for BPD. Despite widespread Lasix use in NICUs, data on dosing and safety have been lacking—this study finds no significant increase in serious adverse events but emphasizes the need for larger trials to better define its role. The team then explores a study from India comparing 7- vs. 14-day antibiotic courses in culture-proven neonatal sepsis, showing that shorter courses may be safe and effective in select populations.Additional discussions include a randomized trial from Australia evaluating “sigh breaths” during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation and their effects on lung volume and oxygenation, a study examining how kangaroo mother care boosts breast milk intake, and a large Japanese cohort study detailing neurodevelopmental outcomes of infants born at 22–31 weeks. Finally, a meta-analysis on prenatal cannabis exposure underscores risks of low birth weight and preterm birth. With depth, humor, and clarity, Ben and Daphna guide listeners through evidence that shapes neonatal care.

Send us a textEpisódio 54 – Hipotermia, Crescimento, Infecção Metabólica e Nariz Eletrônico na NeonatologiaNeste episódio especial, apresentamos os destaques do Encontro Internacional de Neonatologia, realizado nos dias 4 e 5 de abril em Gramado, sob a mais uma vez brilhante organização dos professores Rita e Renato Procianoy. Um evento que reuniu especialistas do Brasil e do mundo para discutir os avanços mais recentes no cuidado neonatal — e nós não poderíamos deixar de compartilhar com vocês, ouvintes que acompanham quinzenalmente o nosso Journal Club em língua portuguesa.Selecionamos quatro estudos que marcaram as discussões científicas durante o encontro:1. Whole-Body Hypothermia vs Targeted Normothermia for Neonates With Mild Encephalopathy – Este ensaio clínico multicêntrico coloca em pauta uma pergunta que muitos de nós enfrentamos à beira do leito: recém-nascidos com encefalopatia leve devem ser resfriados?2. Glucose supply and glycolysis inhibition shape the clinical fate of Staphylococcus epidermidis-infected preterm newborns – Uma fascinante investigação experimental que conecta metabolismo energético e resposta inflamatória em prematuros infectados, com possíveis implicações clínicas na prevenção da disfunção orgânica.3.Monitoring the Postnatal Growth of Preterm Infants: A Paradigm Change – Este artigo propõe uma verdadeira mudança de paradigma na forma como monitoramos o crescimento de prematuros, destacando a importância de uma abordagem individualizada e centrada no bebê. 4. Longitudinal fecal microbiota and volatile metabolomics preceding necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants– Um estudo que combina análise do microbioma e metabolômica para identificar marcadores precoces de enterocolite necrosante, uma das doenças mais temidas da neonatologia.Esperamos que este episódio especial amplie seu repertório científico e inspire práticas ainda mais seguras e baseadas em evidências. Se você gosta do nosso conteúdo, avalie o programa na sua plataforma de streaming e compartilhe com colegas e interessados. Seu apoio é essencial para continuarmos promovendo a neonatologia em língua portuguesa!Até o próximo episódio!

This international retrospective cohort study evaluated the safety of assisted reproductive technology (ART) in BRCA1/2 carriers who conceived after a breast cancer diagnosis at age 40 or younger. Among 543 women, 107 conceived using ART and 436 conceived spontaneously. ART methods included oocyte/embryo cryopreservation, in vitro fertilization, ovulation induction, and oocyte donation. Patients who used ART were generally older, had more hormone receptor-positive tumors, and a longer interval from diagnosis to conception. After a median follow-up of 5.2 years post-conception, ART use was not associated with an increased risk of disease-free survival events, suggesting that ART is a safe option for pregnancy after breast cancer in this population.

Send us a textIn this Journal Club episode, Ben and Daphna review several impactful studies shaping neonatal care. They begin with a secondary analysis of the ETTNO trial, which examined whether liberal transfusion thresholds reduce intermittent hypoxemia or improve neurodevelopmental outcomes in extremely low birth weight infants. Despite prior concerns, the study found no benefit to liberal thresholds, supporting current restrictive practices. A JAMA Network Open study follows, revealing that late preterm infants are least likely to receive mother's own milk at 12 weeks, underscoring an overlooked group in breastfeeding support efforts. Dr. David Rube joins the show to discuss a two-year follow-up of the IN-RECSURE trial, which investigated whether lung recruitment before surfactant administration leads to improved long-term outcomes—ultimately showing no difference in death or disability. The hosts also explore a meta-analysis on umbilical cord blood therapy for children with cerebral palsy, highlighting benefits in motor function for younger children with milder CP when treated at higher doses. Additional topics include the association between funisitis and cerebral palsy in extremely preterm infants and the AZTEC trial's conclusion that azithromycin does not reduce BPD. The episode concludes with a review of best practices for discussing autopsy with families in the NICU setting.
