Why do children decide not to participate in clinical research: a quantitative and qualitative study.

abstract：:The gastrointestinal (GI) barrier function is immature in the preterm neonate and might thus facilitate translocation of enteric bacteria and gut-derived septicemia. Circumstantial evidence suggests that bacterial uptake from the intestine may be further enhanced by an alteration of the host nutritional status. To tes...

abstract：:The fibroblast of the fetal and neonatal lung is intimately involved with lung development and function. Additionally, the perinatal rat lung fibroblast is a significant source of prostaglandins (PG) I2 and E2, which in turn affect lung development and function. Their effects may be mediated by cAMP. We, therefore, te...
