Unveiling Hepatic Protein Alterations in Neonatal and Infant Biliary Atresia
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Pediatric populations differ from adults in drug elimination capacity. While current scaling methods account for enzyme and transporter maturation, they overlook comorbidities, such as biliary atresia (BA), a liver disease appearing within the first 2–8 weeks of life that can progress to cirrhosis.
