Background: Antibiotic use for early-onset neonatal sepsis (EONS) is common, but prolonged exposure can lead to poor outcomes. Laboratory capacity and infection prevention initiatives may impact antibiotic use for EONS in neonatal intensive care units. The objective of this study was to examine the influence of institutional capacity on antibiotic prescribing for EONS in India.

Article Synopsis
- Neonatal sepsis is a major cause of newborn deaths in low and middle-income countries, prompting a study in Vietnam to analyze bacterial causes and antibiotic resistance patterns.
- A study at the National Children's Hospital identified 202 cases of sepsis, predominantly caused by Gram-negative bacteria, with Klebsiella pneumoniae as the most common pathogen.
- The research underscores the need for ongoing monitoring and specific antibiotic strategies to effectively address neonatal sepsis and its challenges.
The effect of early-onset sepsis on retinopathy of prematurity in extremely premature infants based on propensity score matching.

The Second School of Clinical Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, 510515, China.
To investigate the effects of early-onset sepsis (EOS) on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in extremely premature infants (EPIs) by using propensity score matching (PSM). Clinical data of 591 EPIs admitted to NICU, Senior Department of Pediatric, PLA General Hospital from May 1, 2015 to May 1, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into an EOS group and a non-EOS group according to whether they had confirmed EOS or not.
