... protocol based on maternal and neonatal risk indicators. Methods: The medical records of 2,623 neonates born in our maternal hospital between June 2016 and December 2018 and screened for cCMV infection were reviewed. Among those of the included neonates, the records of 380 CMV-negative and 19 CMV-positive...

... impact of a neonatal Ureaplasma colonization is yet to be understood. High pathogen prevalence and frequent neurological morbidities particularly in immature preterm infants call for an assessment of the significance of Ureaplasma spp. in neonatal neuroinflammation. This narrative review summarizes...

The volume of maternal milk was measured directly; mothers manually extracted the milk and the corresponding volume was given to the neonate in a syringe directly to the mouth or via a nasogastric tube. The outcome...
