Purpose We investigated the vitamin D status of preterm infants to determine the incidence of vitamin D deficiency. MethodsA total of 278 preterm infants delivered at Kyungpook National University Hospital between January 2013 and May 2015 were enrolled. The serum concentrations of calcium, phosphorous, alkaline phosphatase, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) were measured at birth. We collected maternal and neonatal data such as... |

Purpose : Perinatal asphyxia is an important cause of neonatal mortality and subsequent lifelong neurodevelopmental handicaps. Although many treatment strategies have been tested, there is currently no clinically effective treatment to prevent or reduce the harmful effects of hypoxia and ischemia in humans. Erythropoietin (Epo) has been shown to exert neuroprotective effects in various brain injury models although the exact... |

Purpose : Hearing loss is one of the most common birth defects, and early detection and intervention positively impact language/speech and cognitive development. It has been reported that NICU graduates have a high incidence of hearing loss. So we investigated the incidence, risk factors and clinical outcome of hearing loss in NICU graduates.
Methods : This study involved neonatal auditory brainstem... |

Urinary ascites in newborns is a rare event that usually is associated with posterior urethral valves and other obstructing anomalies of the genitourinary tract. A case of neonatal urinary ascites without genitourinary tract abnormalities is reported. This premature male neonate was treated by artificial ventilation due to respiratory distress syndrome. The umbilical artery catheter was placed without difficulties and functioned... |

Purpose : This study was undertaken to determine whether any features of apoptosis would occur in the established model of cerebral hypoxia-ischemia in neonatal rats. It was also undertaken to evaluate the effect of post-insult hyperoxia on hypoxic ischemic cerebral injury.
Methods : Seven-day-old neonatal rats underwent unilateral carotid artery dissection followed by 2 hours of hypoxia. To this end... |

Purpose : Kangaroo care is the practice of holding a small premaure infant, naked except for a diaper and hat, against a parent's chest. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of kangaroo care in a NICU as defined by physiological variables.
Methods : Ten stable, spontaneously breathing preterm infants, weighing less than 2,000gm were... |

Purpose : Recent studies suggest that nimodipine, a potent calcium-channel blocker, may improve neurological outcome after experimental hypoxia-ischemic brain injury. This study was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic effect of nimodipine on hypoxia-ischemia in immature rat brain.
Methods : Seven-day postnatal rats were subjected to hypoxia-ischemia by unilateral common carotid artery occlusion combined with 2 hours of hypoxia(in 8% oxygen... |
