Predicting survival in infants with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:In cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is associated with significant morbidity. Although passive prophylaxis with palivizumab lowers hospitalization rate for RSV infection in populations at risk of severe infection, its use is not recommended in infants with CF disea...
