Article Synopsis
- Infants with severe epidermolysis bullosa (EB) often face dehydration and malnutrition, but their nutritional needs are not well studied.
- A study looked at 27 newborns with EB to assess their nutritional status and found many had low sodium levels and needed extra fluids and sodium.
- The results suggest that these infants require higher food and nutrient intake than usual to grow properly and stay healthy, especially during their first month of life.
Background: As a first step to explore the possible relationships existing between the effects of low oxygen pressure in the first trimester placenta and placental pathologies developing from mid-gestation, two subtracted libraries totaling 2304 cDNA clones were constructed. For achieving this, two reciprocal suppressive/subtractive hybridization procedures (SSH) were applied to early (11 weeks) human placental villi after incubation either in normoxic or in hypoxic conditions. The clones from both libraries (1440 hypoxia-specific and 864 normoxia-specific) were spotted on nylon macroarrays.
