Postnatal growth of etiologically characterized preterm newborns according to gestational age at birth.

Objective: To examine the relationship between etiologically-based preterm birth sub-groups and early postnatal growth according to gestational age at birth.

Methods: Prospective, multinational, cohort study involving 15 hospitals that monitored preterm newborns to hospital discharge. Measures/exposures: maternal demographics; etiologically-based preterm birth sub-groups; very, moderate and late preterm categories, and feeding.

The efficacy and safety of isotonic and hypotonic fluids in intravenous maintenance fluid therapy in term newborns: national multicenter observational "neofluid" study.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of isotonic and hypotonic intravenous fluids in maintenance fluid therapy for term infants.

Methods: This was a multi-centre, prospective, observational study conducted in 21 participating centres from December 30, 2020, to June 30, 2023. The study included term newborns requiring parenteral fluid therapy for maintenance (NCT04781361).

Effect of hyperbilirubinemia and phototherapy on apoptotic microparticle levels in neonates.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the effect of hyperbilirubinemia and phototherapy on total apoptotic, platelet-derived, endothelial-derived, and tissue factor (TF)-positive apoptotic microparticle (MP) levels in neonates with nonhemolytic pathologic hyperbilirubinemia.

Methods: Thirty-three term neonates with nonhemolytic pathologic hyperbilirubinemia and 25 healthy term neonates were included. MP levels were analyzed by flow cytometry using peripheral blood samples only once for the neonates in the control group and twice for the neonates in the study group (before and after phototherapy).

Neonatal Resuscitation Practices in Turkey: A Survey of the Turkish Neonatal Society and the Union of European Neonatal and Perinatal Societies.

Objective: Optimal care in the delivery room is important to decrease neonatal morbidity and mortality. We aimed to evaluate neonatal resuscitation practices in Turkish centers.

Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional survey consisted of a 91-item questionnaire focused on delivery room practices in neonatal resuscitation and was sent to 50 Turkish centers.
