Body Composition in Very Preterm Infants: Role of Neonatal Characteristics and Nutrition in Achieving Growth Similar to Term Infants.

abstract：:We describe three positive influenza AH1N1 cases in a neonatal unit during the influenza pandemic in Spain. One term baby presented with an upper respiratory tract infection, another preterm infant with an apnea episode following nosocomial infection, and thirdly, a term infant of a mother with influenza AH1N1 had sev...
