Introduction: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of pneumonia in infants worldwide. We aimed to evaluate the clinical course of community-acquired RSV pneumonia in newborns hospitalized in neonatal intensive care unit.
Materials And Methods: All the newborns diagnosed as pneumonia were prospectively evaluated for RSV infection between November 2010 and April 2011.
Multiple pregnancies are characterized by significantly higher rates of intrauterine and perinatal morbidities and fetal death compared to singleton pregnancies. It is well known that the death of a co-twin during the second and third trimester can cause damage in the other fetus. Here we report two newborn cases presenting with renal failure probably caused by intrauterine death of their co-twins shortly before birth.

- The study analyzed non-benign neonatal arrhythmias in a NICU over five years, finding a low incidence of 0.7% among newborns.
- The most common arrhythmia identified was supraventricular arrhythmia, with significant mortality linked to specific congenital heart diseases and severe electrolyte imbalances, particularly hyperkalemia.
- The findings highlight the need for medical professionals to be vigilant about the detection and understanding of these arrhythmias, as many may go unnoticed during the neonatal period.
