[Association of illicit drug use in pregnant women and congenital syphilis in a public hospital in Mexico].

We conducted a nested case-control study within a cohort with the aim of studying the association between illicit drug use and congenital syphilis (CS). Cases were diagnosed based on treponemal and non-treponemal tests conducted both in the mother and the newborn (NB). Multivariate analysis with logistic regression was performed.

Incidence and factors associated with invasive candidiasis in a neonatal intensive care unit in Mexico.

Introduction: Neonatal Candida spp. infections are serious events due to their morbidity and mortality, however, epidemiological information is insufficient in developing countries. The objective of this study was to describe the incidence and factors associated with invasive infection by Candida spp.

Family history of thyroid disease and risk of congenital hypothyroidism in neonates with Down síndrome.

Introduction: Family history of thyroid disease (FHTD) constitutes a possible risk factor for congenital hypothyroidism (CH) in the general population; however, FHTD possible relationship with CH in subjects with Down syndrome (DS) has not yet been explored.

Objective: To determine whether FHTD is associated with an increased incidence of CH in neonates with DS.

Method: Hospital-based case-control study in 220 neonates with DS.

[Prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in enterobacteria of neonatal sepsis and associated factors].

Background: Infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamases enterobacteria (ESBL-EP) have implications for neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Aim: To describe the prevalence of ESBL-EP in neonatal sepsis and associated factors.

Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted from August 2016 to August 2017; newborn babies (NB) hospitalized in the Hospital Civil de Guadalajara "Dr.

[Neonatal morbidity and mortality associated with low adherence to prenatal corticosteroids].

Introduction: Prenatal corticosteroids reduce neonatal mortality and morbidity; however, there are few studies in developing countries, and with inconsistent results. The purpose of this study was to quantify the frequency of the use of prenatal corticosteroids and to estimate its effect on the morbidity and mortality of premature newborns.

Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed on premature newborns selected from a census conducted between January 2016 and August 2017.

Neonatal mortality and associated factors in newborn infants admitted to a Neonatal Care Unit.

Introduction: The increasing survival rate of preterm infants has altered the epidemiology of neonatal diseases; however, neonatal mortality is still the main component of child mortality. The objective of this study was to evaluate neonatal mortality and associated factors in newborn infants admitted to a neonatal care unit.

Material And Methods: Prospective cohort study conducted between January 2016 and January 2017 at Hospital Civil de Guadalajara "Dr.

Associated congenital anomalies in infants with isolated gastroschisis: A single-institutional experience.

The aim of our study was to determine the frequency and type of associated congenital anomalies in patients with isolated gastroschisis born at the Dr. Juan I. Menchaca Civil Hospital of Guadalajara (Guadalajara, México), and to explore its possible association with the included outcome variables.

Etiology and antimicrobial resistance patterns in early and late neonatal sepsis in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

Introduction: Neonatal sepsis is one of the main causes of death among newborn infants. Empirical antimicrobial treatment is based on epidemiological information and antimicrobial susceptibility tests. The objective of this study was to describe etiologic agents and their antimicrobial susceptibility among newborn infants with early-onset neonatal sepsis (EONS) or late-onset neonatal sepsis (LONS) at a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
