Although the renal artery blood flow velocity has been investigated recently using the ultrasound Doppler method, little is known about the longitudinal change of renal artery blood flow velocity and its relationship with urine volume in very low birth weight infant. Thus, we measured renal artery blood flow velocities by means of the pulse Doppler method in 28 very low birth weight infants. Maximum, minimum, and mean blood flow velocities were determined at postnatal days 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 13, 20, and 27.

Article Synopsis
- A specific antiserum for 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OH-P) was created by immunizing rabbits with a conjugated form of it linked to bovine serum albumin, allowing for a sensitive enzyme immunoassay for analyzing dried blood spots.
- The assay achieved a high level of sensitivity at 2pg/tube and exhibited specific cross-reactivity with other steroids, with varying degrees of influence on the results.
- In comparison to a separate enzyme immunoassay, normal levels of 17-OH-P in babies were found to be lower when measured directly, indicating potential discrepancies between methods.
