Apnea of Prematurity

Comprehensive Physiology, 2012
AbstractApnea of prematurity is a significant problem due to immaturity of the central neural control circuitry responsible for integrating afferent input and central rhythm. In this review, we provide an overview of the pathogenesis of apnea of prematurity—including our current understanding of the role that afferent input to the brain stem plays in ...

The perinatal outcome of all vaginal breech deliveries weighing less than 2,500 grams was evaluated retrospectively. Results indicated that labor and delivery in the breech position had a morbidity and mortality rate far greater than could be attributed to prematurity alone. Serious consideration should be given to prophylactic cesarean section for all

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is the most abundant product of the adrenal cortex, and is a weak androgen agonist thought to be responsible for the clinical signs of pubarche by conversion to more potent androgens, testosterone, and ...

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1964
E A R L Y in the present century when infant mortality was still very high in the highly industrialized countries, more than two thirds of the deaths occurred in the 1 to 12 month period, and most of them were caused by infection. With improving standards of living and the use of antibiotics, death rates from infections in the postneonatal period have ...
