Change detection to tone pairs during the first year of life : Predictive longitudinal relationships for EEG-based source and time-frequency measures
2019
Brain responses related to auditory processing show large changes throughout infancy and childhood with some evidence that the two hemispheres might mature at different rates. Differing rates of hemispheric maturation could be linked to the proposed functional specialization of the hemispheres in which the left auditory cortex engages in analysis of precise timing information whereas the right auditory cortex focuses on analysis of sound frequency. Here the auditory change detection process for rapidly presented tone-pairs was examined in a longitudinal sample of infants at the age of 6 and 12 months using EEG. The ERP response related to change detection of a frequency contrast, its estima…
LATVIAN ADAPTATION OF MCARTHUR-BATES COMMUNICATIVE DEVELOPMENT INVENTORIES
2016
The article discusses the methodology and the preliminary results of the research project entitled “Latvian language in Monolingual and Bilingual Acquisition: tools, theories and applications” (LAMBA). The project involves 25 researchers – linguists, educators, psychologists – from five institutions in Latvia and Norway, and focuses on phonological, lexical and morphosyntactic acquisition of Latvian as a native language in monolingual and bilingual settings. One of the main goals of the project is to develop a set of norm-referenced language assessment tools that would allow for accurate and time-efficient evaluation of language development in pre-school children.The article will focus spec…
L'anàlisi de textos teatrals per a infants i adolescents
2009
Aquest article aborda l’anàlisi del teatre per a infants i adolescents aplicat a textos dramàtics editats. El plantejament d’anàlisi presentat té com punt de partida bàsic la consideració del teatre com una interacció escènica, amb la voluntat de desenvolupar un tipus d’anàlisi que done compte del model de construcció escènica i, fins i tot, d’una concepció de l’acte teatral destinat a infants i a adolescents.
L'adquisició infantil de les llengües de signes
2003
[ENG] This article offers an overview of research in sign language acquisition by children, mostly in American Sign Language. The results indicate that the developmental milestones and the linguistic errors made by children acquiring a sign language coincide with those observed in hearing children acquiring spoken languages. The visual-gestural modality is shown not to have the expected impact on the acquisition processes, which is arguably regulated by strictly linguistic principles.
La poesia per a infants. Estat de la qüestió en llengua catalana
2009
L’objectiu d’aquest article és presentar una aproximació a la poesia per a infants a partir d’un conjunt de reflexions sobre el gènere (que abraçaran àmbits, funcions, suports i canals de difusió), d’una proposta d’anàlisi ( on es tindrà en compte el context històric i cultural, els paratextos i el text poètic) i d’una panoràmica de l’estat actual de la poesia per a infants en llengua catalana. Al llarg d’aquest treball mirarem d’aportar respostes a interrogants com de què parlem quan ens referim a la poesia per a infants, com podem extreure dades de l’anàlisi de les obres de poesia, quins són els principals trets del panorama actual d’aquesta poesia en llengua catalana.
Dades per a l'anàlisi de narratives per al lector infantil i juvenil
2009
El camp de la literatura per a infants i joves reclama habitualment dades objectives que permeten avaluar el tipus de relat amb el qual ha de treballar l’editor, el traductor, el bibliotecari, el gestor cultural o el professional de la mediació. Per tant, la transformació d’un relat en objecte epistemològic és el primer esglaó imprescindible per als professionals de la mediació o de la gestió cultural. L’article proposa un protocol per a l’anàlisi dels relats per a infants i joves
”En ny hverdag”. Mødres opplevelse av hverdagen med et prematurt barn, og støtten ved en ressurshelsestasjon
2015
The study explores mothers’ of premature infants experience of how health centers especially adapted for families with premature infants can help them to cope with everyday life after discharge from a neonatal intensive care unit. Background: Premature children are at higher risk for physical and mental health problems, which makes parenting demanding. The transition between hospital and home is a challenging period where parents may need extra support to cope with everyday life. Method: Nine mothers of premature infants receiving follow-up care at a health center especially adapted for families with premature infants were interviewed. Data were analyzed by Kvale and Brinkmann’s guidelines …
Prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy in children and young people with primary hypertension: Meta-analysis and meta-regression
2022
BackgroundLeft ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is the main marker of HMOD in children and young people (CYP). We aimed to assess the prevalence of LVH and its determinants in CYP with primary hypertension (PH).MethodsA meta-analysis of prevalence was performed. A literature search of articles reporting LVH in CYP with PH was conducted in Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases. Studies with a primary focus on CYP (up to 21 years) with PH were included. Meta-regression was used to analyze factors explaining observed heterogeneity.ResultsThe search yielded a total of 2,200 articles, 153 of those underwent full-text review, and 47 reports were included. The reports evaluated 51 study cohorts inc…

Progression of Gastric Acid Production in Preterm Neonates: Utilization of In-vitro Method
2018
Background: There have been limited studies done regarding ability to produce gastric acid in preterm infants. Most studies have used in vivo method of assessing gastric pH. Objectives: The objectives of the study was to assess the feasibility of using an in vitro method of measuring gastric pH in babies ≤ 28 weeks gestational age (GA) and determine whether changes in gastric pH differ with gestational age, mode of delivery, and use of antenatal steroids. Design/Methods: Prospective study that enrolled extremely low birth weight (ELBW) babies. Gastric aspirate was collected before feeding. In vitro testing of gastric aspirates for pH were done on days of life 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 28 by using…
