Insulin Infusions in Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants
Pediatrics, 2000To the Editor. We read with interest the article by Fuloria et al on insulin infusions in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants.1The authors concluded that priming the tubing with a higher concentration of insulin (5 U/mL) before the initiation of a standard insulin infusion therapy should accelerate the achievement of steady-state insulin ...

Insulin homeostasis in the extremely low birth weight infant
Seminars in Perinatology, 2001The need to improve the nutritional status of extremely low birth weight infants has resulted in a higher incidence of problems related to glucose intolerance. The inability of the newborn to inhibit gluconeogenesis in response to a glucose infusion has been postulated as an important determinant of the hyperglycemia observed in extremely low birth ...

PLACENTAL HISTOPATHOLOGY IN THE EXTREMELY LOW BIRTH WEIGHT INFANTS
Fetal and Pediatric Pathology, 2008Our objective was to evaluate the placental histopathology (PH) in extremely low birth weight infants (ELBW, birth weight < 1000 g) and to determine if placental histopathological findings are associated with neonatal mortality in them. The PH of all ELBW infants (gestational age 23-30 weeks) born during a 3-year study period was prospectively ...

PROTEIN METABOLISM IN THE EXTREMELY LOW–BIRTH WEIGHT INFANT
Clinics in Perinatology, 2000Although extensive data are available on the impact of nutrient and protein administration on growth, plasma amino acids, and nitrogen balance in the newborn and growing infants, relatively few studies have carefully examined the dynamic aspects of protein metabolism in vivo and particularly in the micropremie or ELBW infant.

Vascular ring in an extremely low birth weight infant
The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003Vascular rings due to aortic arch anomalies can be a major cause of tracheoesophageal obstruction in infants. But there is no report of vascular ring in an extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infant. This is a report of an infant with birth weight of 560 g, who has not diagnosed vascular ring until 6 months of age because of asymptomatic process by ...

ENERGY EXPENDITURE IN THE EXTREMELY LOW-BIRTH WEIGHT INFANT
Clinics in Perinatology, 2000Information about energy requirements of extremely low-birth weight infants is sparse, despite the rapidly improving survival rates of this population. Metabolizable energy intake can be estimated from energy balance studies and the percentage of caloric intake that is actually absorbed by these infants is approximately 87%.

Retinopathy of Prematurity in Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants
Pediatrics, 1995Objective. To review the survival rate, the incidence and severity of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), and the rate of blindness caused by ROP in extremely low birth weight (ELBW, birth weight 500 to 999 g) infants born between January 1, 1977, and December 31, 1992, and to determine whether increasing survival rates of ELBW infants are accompanied by

HIV Transmission to Extremely Low Birth Weight Infants
Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2013Prematurity increases the perinatal HIV transmission rate compared with term infants. There is sparse literature documenting the risk of transmission of HIV to extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants.To determine the risk of perinatal transmission of HIV to ELBW infants in a tertiary neonatal unit in South Africa.A prospective database was maintained

Leukemoid Reaction in Extremely Low-Birth-Weight Infants
American Journal of Perinatology, 1999The objective of this paper was to determine the incidence of leukemoid reaction and to evaluate its relationship with maternal and neonatal factors in extremely low-birth-weight (ELBW) infants. The design a case-controlled retrospective study of all live-born ELBW infants ( or = 50,000/mm3.
