Feb 18th, 2021 - Phenobarbitone is used as a first-line drug for neonatal seizures. However, its poor short- and long-term safety profile is concerning. We aim to systematically synthesize the data on the efficacy and safety of phenobarbitone as a first-line agent...

Feb 3rd, 2021 - Kaila, Löscher, and colleagues report that phenobarbital (PHB) and midazolam (MDZ) attenuate neonatal seizures following birth asphyxia, but the former only when applied before asphyxia and the latter before or after the triggering insult. In cont...

Feb 1st, 2021 - Seizures are the most common neurological emergency in the neonatal period and in contrast to those in infancy and childhood, are often provoked seizures with an acute cause and may be electrographic-only. Hence, neonatal seizures may not fit easi...

Jan 15th, 2021 - The sodium-potassium-chloride (Na-K-Cl) cotransporter NKCC1 is found in the plasma membrane of a wide variety of cell types, including neurons, glia and endothelial cells in the brain. Increased expression of neuronal NKCC1 has been implicated in ...
