Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the development of molecular biological and genetic medical technologies has been remarkable, many pediatric intractable diseases and rare diseases have been diagnosed, and therapeutic methods have been developed. Meanwhile, when we look at common neonatal and pediatric diseases, conventional diagnostic and therapeutic methods are still often used to this day. It is also necessary to apply innovative thinking, science, and technology to common neonatal and pediatric diseases in order to elucidate their pathophysiology and develop novel diagnosis methods and treatments.
In this special issue, more focused area is the common diseases associated with preterm and term infants, such as neonatal jaundice and neonatal infection, and common growth disorders that are strongly influenced by the conditions during the neonatal period, such as short children born small-for gestational age and pediatric non-communicable diseases (metabolic syndrome, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia).
