Salivary caffeine concentrations are comparable to plasma concentrations in preterm infants receiving extended caffeine therapy.
AIMS Caffeine concentrations in preterm infants are usually measured in the blood. However, salivary assays may provide a valid and practical alternative. The present study explored the validity and clinical utility of salivary caffeine concentrations as an alternative to blood concentrations and developed a novel plasma/salivary caffeine distribution model. METHODS Paired salivary and plasma...
متن کاملCocaine, nicotine, caffeine, and metabolite plasma concentrations in neonates.
The objective of this study was to measure the umbilical cord plasma levels of cocaine, nicotine, caffeine, and their metabolites. Thirty-six neonates at risk for prenatal cocaine exposure were prospectively enrolled. Umbilical cord plasma was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy for cocaine, cocaethylene, benzoylecgonine (BZE), nicotine, cotinine, and caffeine. Eighteen neonates we...
متن کاملPlasma Leptin Concentrations in Preterm Infants with Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)
Intruduction: This study was conducted to determine blood levels of leptin in premature infants with proliferative ROP.Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a postnatal disorder of retinal vessels that develops in the incompletely vascularized retina of preterm infants. This disorder regresses in most patients but can lead to severe visual impairment. There is evidence that leptin stimulates angi...
متن کاملPlasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations in preterm infants receiving oral vitamin D supplements.
Plasma 25-hydroxy-cholecalciferol (25-OHD) was measured serially in two groups of preterm infants receiving either 400 IU or 1000 IU oral vitamin D3 daily. All the babies were able to absorb and hydroxylate vitamin D3 adequately by 36 weeks' gestational age. The higher daily supplement had no advantage over the lower dose.
متن کاملDecreased plasma fibronectin concentrations in preterm infants with septicaemia.
Changes in plasma fibronectin concentrations were determined during bacterial septicaemia in extremely preterm infants. The study was a prospective study of fibronectin concentrations in infants of less than 30 weeks' gestation. Concentrations were determined at birth, before sepsis, and throughout the episode of sepsis. Fibronectin concentrations at birth or immediately before sepsis were not ...
