Aim
The diagnosis of early‐onset neonatal sepsis (EOS) remains difficult. The main aim was to study the effect of a new algorithm for EOS, which includes the level of procalcitonin in umbilical cord blood, on the exposure to antibiotic therapy of premature newborn infants.
Methods
This was a monocentric, observational and retrospective study with before‐and‐after design. The duration and dose of...
Objective
Autosomal recessive pathogenic variants of the SLC13A5 gene are associated with severe neonatal epilepsy, developmental delay, and tooth hypoplasia/hypodontia. We report on 14 additional patients and compare their phenotypic features to previously published patients to identify the clinical hallmarks of this disorder.
Methods
We collected clinical features of 14 patients carrying biallelic...
Mutations in the KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 genes encoding for Kv7.2 (KCNQ2; Q2) and Kv7.3 (KCNQ3; Q3) voltage‐dependent K+ channel subunits, respectively, cause neonatal epilepsies with wide phenotypic heterogeneity. In addition to benign familial neonatal epilepsy (BFNE), KCNQ2 mutations have been recently found in families with one or more family members with a severe outcome, including drug‐resistant seizures...
