Thrombocytopenia (defined as a platelet count< 150× 109/L) is a common condition in
preterm neonates and may occur in 18–35% of all infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive …

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an inflammatory intestinal disease that profoundly affects
preterm infants. Currently, the pathogenesis of NEC remains controversial, resulting in …

Background Despite preterm newborns often requiring blood transfusions, we have an
incomplete understanding of the impact of adult packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusions …

The causal relationship between Packed red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and necrotizing
enterocolitis (NEC) remains uncertain. This study aims to provide an exploration of …

Background Thrombocytopenia, common in preterm newborns, may increase bleeding risk
and is often treated with transfusions. Recent studies reveal that transfusing platelets at a …

Abstract Background and Objectives Umbilical cord blood (UCB) has been used as a source
of red blood cells (RBCs) for neonatal/paediatric transfusion purposes. This study adopted …

Thrombocytopenia (defined as a platelet count< 150× 109/L) is a common condition in
preterm neonates and may occur in 18-35% of all infants admitted to the Neonatal Intensive …

Objective Blood cell populations, including red blood cells (RBC) unique to the extremely
preterm (EPT) infant, are potentially lost due to frequent clinical blood sampling during …

Aim: This study investigates the association of complete blood count parameters and
