To determine whether neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) are correlated with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) on the first day of prematurity and to help with early warning, identification, and intervention in the development of BPD. From January 2017 to June 2022, newborns who were diagnosed with BPD conducted a retrospective cohort study. Complete blood cells were measured within the first 24 hours of life in preterm neonates of 32 gestational weeks with BPD as the observation group and non-BPD infants as the control group.

Methods: This retrospective study involved all premature infants admitted to our neonatal intensive care unit from January 2017 to June 2022. BPD was diagnosed based on hypoxia exposure for ≥28 days.
Objective: To investigate the association between the clinical manifestations of infants with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection and glycoprotein B (gB) genotype.
Methods: Urine samples were obtained from 107 symptomatic infants with HCMV infection confirmed by fluorescence quantitative PCR, 70 male and 37 female, aged 5 d-8 months, and 25 asymptomatic infants with HCMV infection, 16 male and 9 female, aged 21 d-7 months. A fragment of glycoprotein B gene was amplified by nested PCR (nPCR).
