TL;DR: In multivariate models that adjusted for such potential confounders as gestational age, labor, and route of delivery, the only associations that persisted were the increased risk of IVH associated with the presence of chorionic or umbilical vasculitis in infants born within 1 h of membrane rupture.

Floyd H. Gilles,William D. Brown,Alan Leviton,C. Jane Tavaré,Lester S. Adelman,Lucy B. Rorke,Richard L. Davis,Tessa Hedley-Whyte +7 more
TL;DR: In the context of many implied but not rigorously stated histologic feature combinations, the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of astrocytic tumors specifies only the presence or absence of endothelial proliferation, necrosis, and mitosis to distinguishAstrocytoma, anaplastic astro Cytomas, and glioblastoma multiforme.

Antecedents of chronic lung disease following three patterns of early respiratory disease in preterm infants.
Matthew M. Laughon,Carl L. Bose,Elizabeth N. Allred,T. Michael O'Shea,Richard A. Ehrenkranz,Linda J. Van Marter,Alan Leviton +6 more
TL;DR: The likelihood of a very preterm infant developing CLD and the profile of risk factors linked with CLD are related to the infant's pattern of respiratory disease during the first 2 postnatal weeks.
Journal ArticleDOI
