Frequency, Burden and Pathogens of Acute Respiratory Illness in Very Preterm Infants During Infancy
ABSTRACT Aim To describe the frequency, burden, and pathogen profile of acute respiratory illnesses (ARIs) in very preterm infants during the first year after neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) discharge. Methods Very preterm infants were followed prospectively (August 2015–January 2017) with monthly assessments of symptoms, medication use, and ...

ABSTRACT ABCA3 deficiency should be suspected in term infants with persistent respiratory distress from birth. This case highlights how early whole‐exome sequencing established the diagnosis after extensive investigations, identified an intermediate phenotype caused by compound heterozygous variants, and guided targeted multidisciplinary management.
