Kernicterus Continues to Occur in the USA Despite Concerted Preventive Efforts [PDF]
Kernicterus spectrum disorder continues to occur in the USA, even after improvements in detecting and managing hyperbilirubinemia were brought about by the 2022 AAP revised guidelines. Three of eight new cases of kernicterus occurring in our state during

Clinicopathological Spectrum of Bilirubin Encephalopathy/Kernicterus
Bilirubin encephalopathy/kernicterus is relatively rare, but continues to occur despite universal newborn screening. What is more interesting is the spectrum of clinical and even neuropathological findings that have been reported in the literature to be ...

The Importance of Neuroimaging Follow-Up in Bilirubin-Induced Encephalopathy: A Clinical Case Review [PDF]
Introduction: Hyperbilirubinemia in newborns can lead to kernicterus, a severe form of neonatal encephalopathy caused by bilirubin toxicity. Despite timely interventions such as exchange transfusion, kernicterus can still develop, especially in high-risk

Developmental outcome of severe neonatal indirect hyperbilirubinemia [PDF]
Background: Indirect hyperbilirubinemia is one of the most common causes of hospitalization in the neonatal period and its potential association with brain damage is well established.

Genetic Association of UGT1A1 Promoter Variants (c.-3279T>G and c.-3156G>A) with Neonatal Hyperbili-rubinemia in an Iranian Population [PDF]
Background: Several studies have reported that two promoter variants (c.-3279T>G and c.-3156G>A) in UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) gene may contribute to neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.
