10th Anniversary of Children: Feature Papers in Neonatology

Dear Colleagues,

We are celebrating the 10th anniversary of Children with a Special Issue in the “Pediatric Neonatology” Section in 2023.

On behalf of the journal’s Editor-in-Chief, Prof. Dr. Paul R. Carney, members of the Editorial Office, and ourselves as Guest Editors, we would like to take this opportunity to thank our authors and reviewers for their valuable contributions to ensuring that Children is a successful and respected journal in its field. To celebrate the journal’s 10th anniversary, we will be serving as Guest Editors of a Special Issue focused on the clinical care, service delivery, and research related to the care of children, specifically within the context of neonatology.

Related to prevention, screening as well as treatment have evolved significantly over the last decade, improving outcomes. Prevention and screening strategies were developed and implemented (prenatal screening, dry blood spots, cardiac screening, and hearing screening). Treatment modalities changed, from delivery room management to care bundle concepts (respiratory, neurological, nutritional, pharmacological, and family-centered care), as have the outcomes of preterm neonates or neonates with specific conditions. We warmly invite original research as well as state-of-the-art reviews on/perspective contributions to pediatric global health. The papers should be long research papers (or review papers) with a full and detailed summary of the author's own work completed so far. We would like to report the latest achievements from all of the branches within the scope of "Pediatric Neonatology". We look forward to receiving your submissions!

Prof. Dr. Karel Allegaert
Guest Editor
