Serum soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products during acute bronchiolitis in infant: Prospective study in 93 cases.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Newborns exhibit the lowest immediate respiratory morbidity rates when born following 39 completed weeks of gestation. We sought to determine whether early-term delivery (37-38 + 6 weeks' gestation) impacts on long-term pediatric respiratory morbidity. STUDY DESIGN:In this population-based prospective cohort...
