Impaired Cytokine Responses to Live Staphylococcus epidermidis in Preterm Infants Precede Gram-positive, Late-onset Sepsis
Late-onset sepsis (LOS) with Staphylococcus epidermidis is common in preterm infants, but the immunological mechanisms underlying heightened suscepti…
Early or delayed parenteral nutrition for infants: what evidence is available?
Recent studies in very premature infants (3.5 g/kg/day immediately after birth) may cause metabolic acidosis, elevated blood urea, slower head growth…
Plasma cytokine profiles in very preterm infants with late-onset sepsis
Very preterm infants have a marked innate inflammatory response at the time of late-onset sepsis
