Differentiation into extraembryonic endoderm [21] or neural progenitors [33] are
frequent early outcomes of spontaneous differentiation when human ES cells are cultured in the presence of a feeder cell layer, and it is interesting to speculate that the cells are being primed for these fates.
From kitten / puppy to geriatric care,
frequent checkups,
early screening leads to
earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment, support better
outcomes and control of common chronic conditions.
Because pediatricians have nearly universal, relatively
frequent and recurring contact with young children and their families, they are uniquely well positioned to have an impact on developmental
outcomes through anticipatory guidance at well - child visits,
early developmental screening, practice - based developmental interventions, community linkage and referral programs, and advocacy for broader social change to support child development.40 — 44 This study reinforces the potential benefits of practice - based programs that support parenting and the home learning environment, such as «Reach Out and Read» and «Healthy Steps for Young Children,» 16,45,46 as well as community - based programs that help guide families through systems of care for developmental support, like Help Me Grow.47 Efforts to connect pediatric practices with home visitor and
early care and education providers may provide referral opportunities for promoting
early brain development.48 — 52
