Staphylococcal infections in infants: updates and current challenges.

Abstract:

:Staphylococci are common pathogens in the neonatal period. Increased survival of premature infants leads to prolonged hospital stay with associated risk factors for developing invasive staphylococcal disease. Challenges of diagnosing coagulase-negative staphylococcal infections result in conflicting definitions and inconsistent clinical practice. Resistance to methicillin influences the choice of empirical therapy.

  • Neonatal Cushing Syndrome: A Rare but Potentially Devastating Disease.

    abstract::Neonatal Cushing syndrome (CS) is most commonly caused by exogenous administration of glucocorticoids and rarely by endogenous hypercortisolemia. CS owing to adrenal lesions is the most common cause of endogenous CS in neonates and infants, and adrenocortical tumors (ACTs) represent most cases. Many ACTs develop in th...
