No original work is available in the literature about Indian neonates. The present study was, therefore, undertaken to study the vitamin E status in cord blood and early neonatal period of preterm and term babies.

متن کاملCorrelation of prenatal vitamin D deficiency and neonatal urinary tract infection
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common infection during pregnancy and different age groups of children, including the neonatal period. It comprises 1/3 of bacterial infections in newborn infants, with a prevalence of 0.1-1% in term and 4-25% in preterm neonates. UTI occurs more commonly in male neonates (M/F: 2-6/1) for the higher incidence of structural abnormalities (1,2). Urin...
متن کاملImpact of maternal vitamin D status during pregnancy on neonatal vitamin D status.
Maternal vitamin D deficiency is not uncommon. The lack of vitamin D during pregnancy may result in poor fetal growth and altered neonatal development that may persist into later life. Recognition of risk factors and early detection of vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy are important in order to prevent neonatal vitamin D deficiency and related complications. The aim of the current study was...
