Toxicity to bilirubin in neonates: Infant development during first year in relation to maximum neonatal serum bilirubin concentration

摘要: Neurologic and developmental performance during the first year of life was correlated with maximum neonatal serum bilirubin levels for 27,000 infants in Collaborative Perinatal Project. The were grouped by race five birth weight/gestational age categories to control effect these factors on hyperbilirubinemia outcome. Low mean eight-month motor scores delayed one-year development associated range 10 14 mg/dl above. This relationship was, strongest low-birth-weight/short-gestational-period infants. A persistent association outcome found over above variation maturity within categories.
