Background: To assess the value of combined Monocyte Distribution Width (MDW) and Procalcitonin (PCT) detection in diagnosing and predicting neonatal sepsis outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective study, conducted from January 2022 to December 2023.A retrospective analysis of 39 neonatal sepsis and 30 non-infectious systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) cases was conducted.

Investigating the genetic factors influencing human birth weight may lead to biological insights into fetal growth and long-term health. We report analyses of rare variants that impact birth weight when carried by either fetus or mother, using whole exome sequencing data in up to 234,675 participants. Rare protein-truncating and deleterious missense variants are collapsed to perform gene burden tests.

Introduction: Neonatal postoperative outcomes may be negatively affected by perioperative red blood cell transfusion (RBCT). This study compared 30-day postoperative outcomes between transfused and non-transfused neonates.
Methods: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) Pediatric dataset (2021-2022) was used to analyze the association between RBCT and 30-day morbidity and mortality after neonatal surgery.

Introduction: Neonatal circulatory shock poses a significant challenge in intensive care settings and necessitates early recognition and intervention to prevent adverse outcomes. The perfusion index (PI), derived from pulse oximetry signals, is a potential adjunct tool for assessing peripheral perfusion and predicting shock in neonates. This prospective observational study aimed to evaluate the correlation between PI and circulatory shock in neonates with the goal of establishing PI as an objective parameter for early shock identification.

In clinics, physical injuries to the spinal cord cause a temporary motor areflexia below lesion, known as spinal shock. This topic is still underexplored due to the lack of preclinical spinal cord injury (SCI) models that do not use anesthesia, which would affect spinal excitability. Our innovative design considered a custom-made micro impactor that provides localized and calibrated strikes to the ventral surface of the thoracic spinal cord of the entire CNS isolated from neonatal rats.
