COVID-19-Associated Cerebral White Matter Injury in a Newborn Infant With Afebrile Seizure.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptoms in newborn infants are incompletely described. We present the first case of neuroradiologic abnormality associated with COVID-19 in a newborn infant with afebrile seizure. This case underlines the possible neurologic involvement of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in this age group.

Elevated blood carboxyhemoglobin levels as an early predictor of phototherapy requirement in moderate and late preterm infants.

Preterm infants are prone to increased bilirubin burden and display adverse outcomes if left unmonitored; therefore, predicting an increased bilirubin production is of paramount importance. We aimed to evaluate carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) levels in moderate (GA: 32-33) and late preterm (GA: 34-36) infants to assess whether this molecule could be used as an early predictor of phototherapy requirement. A total of 221 infants were enrolled in the study.
