BACKGROUND There are limited data to inform the choice between early treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and early surfactant treatment as the initial support for extremely-low-birth-weight infants. METHODS We performed a randomized, multicenter trial, with a 2-by-2 factorial design, involving infants who were born between 24 weeks 0 days and 27 weeks 6 days of gestation...
متن کاملNasal CPAP or intubation at birth for very preterm infants.
BACKGROUND Bronchopulmonary dysplasia is associated with ventilation and oxygen treatment. This randomized trial investigated whether nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), rather than intubation and ventilation, shortly after birth would reduce the rate of death or bronchopulmonary dysplasia in very preterm infants. METHODS We randomly assigned 610 infants who were born at 25-to-2...
متن کاملCan Bioinformatics Be Considered as an Experimental Biological Science?
The objective of this short report is to reconsider the subject of bioinformatics as just being a tool of experimental biological science. To do that, we introduce three examples to show how bioinformatics could be considered as an experimental science. These examples show how the development of theoretical biological models generates experimentally verifiable computer hypotheses, which necessa...
متن کاملCan post-mortem computed tomography be considered an alternative for autopsy in deaths due to hemopericardium?
Hemopericardium is a common finding at autopsy, but it may represent a challenge for the forensic pathologist when the etiopathological relationship in causing death is requested. Hemopericardium and cardiac tamponade can be evaluated in living people using radiological techniques, in particular computer tomography (CT). Only a few studies are reported in literature involving post-mortem (PM) c...
