New Trends in Perinatal and Pediatric Epidemiology

Dear Colleagues,

New Trends in perinatal and pediatric epidemiology perinatology and pediatric epidemiology are closely related disciplines of obstetrics (fetal and maternal medicine) and pediatrics (neonatology). Science is developing rapidly. More and more diseases are being classified into increasing numbers of subtypes, primarily due to the diversity of the genetic background. Prenatal diagnostics and genetics are developing rapidly. Newer procedures, like CMA and WES, enable more tests to take place. In addition to statistical calculations, the processing of causes is also an important task of epidemiology. We welcome authors to provide their latest results on a particular topic and a summary of their previous results, and we are particularly interested in meta-analyses and more interesting case reports, as well as descriptions of rare diseases.
