BACKGROUND: Light exposure of TPN generates peroxides which induce vasoconstriction.
Mesenteric vasoconstriction may affect feeding tolerance. Since photo-protection of TPN …

Aim: To determine the changes in plasma nitrite/nitrate (NOx) and endothelin‐1 (ET‐1)
concentrations during neonatal sepsis. Methods: In a prospective study, 60 consecutive …

The potential of nitric oxide (NO) as a rapid assay biomarker, one that could provide a
quantum leap in acute care, remains largely untapped. NO plays a crucial role as …

Nitrogen monoxide (NO) is a potent endogenous vasodilator and is involved in cytotoxicity,
neurotransmission, and immunological defense mechanisms. Phototherapy has long been …

Sepsis is a devastating, life-threatening disease and a major problem for many newborns; it
develops rapidly and requires expertise to identify the early, subtle signs to prevent death or …

Objective: To determine the serum nitric oxide levels in healthy neonates and in infants with
bacteremia. Methods: We performed a prospective study in a tertiary neonatal intensive care …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a potent vasodilator and regulator of vascular tone, a neurotransmitter,
and a cytotoxic agent (1, 2). In aqueous aerobic environments, the primary decomposition …
