Controversies in the identification and management of acute pulmonary hypertension in preterm neonates.

abstract：:A recently introduced test measures the concentration of transferrin receptor (TfR) in serum, which increases shortly after the onset of iron deficiency. In adults this increase reflects the degree to which tissue iron availability is impaired. We developed a fluoroimmunoassay to quantify TfR. The purpose of this stud...
