Complete blood count parameters, neutrophil鈥搇ymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte鈥搈onocyte ratio, platelet鈥搇ymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic inflammatory index, and platelet mass index were recorded during the first week and first month after birth. The study analyzed the impact of parameters ...
positive predictive value RDS, respiratory distress syndrome RFU, relative fluorescence unit ROC, receiver operating curve WBC, white blood cell count Extremely low (Ͻ1000g) birth-weight (ELBW) infants are at increased risk of developing life threatening late-onset (Ͼ72 h after birth) nosocomi...
We report a case of an extremely low birth weight male infant who presented on day 4 of life with clinical features of sepsis, multi-organ dysfunction, shock and pulmonary haemorrhage. Neonatal sepsis was associated with marked elevation of C-reactive protein and a falling platelet count. Infant...
Results: The mean level of IL-1 beta and IL-6, white blood cell count (WBC) and red blood cell count (RBC), lymphocyte percentage (Lym%), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), platelet count (PLT) and procalcitonin (PCT) were significantly more in the exposed group, than the unexposed group...
