Abstract

Background: Hypothermia in newborns continues to be a significant issue and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The incidence of hypothermia in referral newborns is still high during hospital admission. Subjects and Method: This is a prospective cohort study conducted at Dr. Moewardi Hospital. Data collection was carried out on January 1, 2015, until March 31, 2015, for referred newborns. The dependent variable was mortality and the independent variables included gestational age, birth weight, sepsis, severe respiratory distress, and temperature at the time of admission at the ER. The chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze the data, with a cut-off value of p<0.05 cut off and a confidence interval of 95%. Results: There were 56 newborn referrals, with 60.7% incidence of hypothermia and 19.6% inci­dence with mortality. From the chi-square analysis, the variable of gestational age and weight did not meet the requirements of multivariate analysis (p> 0.25). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed a non-significant association between severe respiratory distress and mortality in referred newborns (OR= 5.25; 95% CI= 0.89 to 30.82; p= 0.066). After performing multivariate logistic regression analysis to obtain controlled ORs, there was a significant relationship between newborn referrals mortality and temperature at the time of ER admission (OR= 8.75; 95% CI= 1.07 to 3.26; p= 0.047) and sepsis (OR= 6.25; 95% CI= 150 to 28.69; p= 0.012) with mortality of referred newborns. Conclusion: The incidence of hypothermic referred newborns is high. Hypothermia during admission at the ER and sepsis are both associated with increased mortality in referred newborns.

Abstract

Background Preterm neonates are susceptible to various complications and may require invasive procedures that increase the risk of sepsis, which is the third leading cause of mortality in children. Routine laboratory results, such as red-cell distribution width (RDW) and immature to total neutrophil (I/T) ratio, may be useful as predictors of mortality in neonatal sepsis patients. These laboratory markers have undergone limited testing as mortality predictors in preterm neonates with sepsis. Objective To analyze the predictive ability of RDW and I/T ratio on sepsis mortality in preterm neonates. Methods This prospective cohort study included 42 preterm neonates (gestational age 28-36 weeks + 6 days), with birth weight appropriate to gestational age. The diagnosis of sepsis was established based on the high probable sepsis (HPS) and probable sepsis (PRS) criteria scores. RDW and I/T ratio values were obtained at the time of the sepsis diagnosis. Neonatal mortality was defined as death occurring within the first 28 days of life. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze for associations between mortality and the laboratory markers. Results The median RDW in preterm neonates who died was 16.5% (range 14.0-32.7%). This was relatively similar to the median RDW value in preterm neonates who lived (16.25%; range 14.6-34.3%). ROC curve analysis revealed an area under curve (AUC) of 0.541 (95%CI 0.359 to-0.722; P=0.656). The median I/T ratio in preterm neonates who died was 0.13 (range 0.03-0.22), which was similar to the median I/T ratio in preterm neonates who lived (0.15; range 0.11-8.20). The AUC value was 0.387 (95%CI 0.214 to -0.559; P=0.213). Conclusion The RDW and I/T ratio values cannot be used as predictors of sepsis mortality in preterm neonates.

Abstract

Background: Atopic diathesis, a hereditary predisposition to allergic disorders such as atopic dermatitis, asthma, and allergic rhinitis, is more strongly transmitted maternally. Maternal atopy may influence neonatal skin barrier development, but evidence on its effect on neonatal skin pH and hydration is limited. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Dr. Moewardi General Hospital, Surakarta, Indonesia, between March–April 2025. Neonates (28–41 weeks gestation), <24 hours old, and delivered by cesarean section were included. Skin pH was measured on the volar forearm and axilla using a calibrated pH meter, and hydration (water and oil content) was assessed with a Skin Tester. Maternal atopy diathesis was classified by the Erlangen Atopy Score (EAS). Results: Twenty-nine neonates were enrolled, comprising 12 with and 17 without maternal atopy. No significant association was found between maternal atopy and neonatal hydration (water: p = 0.460; oil: p = 0.997) or skin pH (p = 0.876). Conclusion: Maternal atopy diathesis was not associated with neonatal skin pH or hydration in the first 24 hours of life. Early neonatal skin physiology appears to be influenced more by intrinsic maturation than maternal atopic status. Longitudinal studies are needed to assess potential delayed effects.
