Supraventricular Tachycardia in the Setting of Neonatal COVID-19 Infection: A Case Report.

Background: COVID-19 infection, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), may present with a wide range of clinical presentations and a variety of symptoms in neonates. The cardiovascular manifestations that have been described in the setting of COVID-19 infection in neonates are tachycardia and hypotension, but information regarding cardiac arrhythmias is scarce, while the effect of SARS-CoV-2 on myocardial function is still not well established.

Clinical Findings: We present a case of a neonate admitted with fever and nasal congestion.

Neonatal Sepsis Caused by Complicated with Pulmonary Hypertension: A Case-Report and a Systematic Literature Review.

() has been linked to the development of infections in adults; however, in neonates sepsis is very rare and resembles Group B Streptococcal infections. In this case report, we present the case of a full-term neonate who developed early-onset sepsis due to . A systematic review of the literature was also conducted.

Gaucher Disease Type 2 Manifested as Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in a Neonate in the COVID-19 Era.

Background: A term neonate presented with persistent severe thrombocytopenia, elevated liver enzymes, conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, hepatosplenomegaly, and mild hypotonia.

Observations: A thorough workup for infections, congenital thrombocytopenias, and neonatal malignancies was negative. Because of increased anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies after maternal COVID-19, multisystem inflammatory syndrome of neonates was considered and intravenous immunoglobulin was administered.

Difference in Mortality and Morbidity Between Extremely and Very Low Birth Weight Neonates.

: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the mortality and morbidity of extremely low (ELBW < 1,000 g) and very low birth weight neonates (VLBW: 1,000-1,500 g) hospitalized in a referral NICU of a Children's hospital. : A retrospective study was conducted in records of the Neonatal Unit of a tertiary care Children's hospital in Greece from January 2009 to March 2019. : All neonates with birth weight ≤1,500 grams, who were all outborn, were reviewed.

Circulating Irisin Levels in Preadolescents and Adolescents Born Preterm.

Introduction: Prematurity is associated with increased cardiometabolic risk later in life. The adipomyokine irisin has been acknowledged as a modulator of energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The aim of this study was to investigate circulating levels of irisin and their relation to anthropometric measurements and cardiometabolic phenotype in a population of preterm-born children versus full-term-born peers.
