Reliability of Procalcitonin Concentrations for the Diagnosis of Sepsis in Critically Ill Neonates
Claudio Chiesa,Alessandra Panero,Naila Rossi,M. Stegagno,Maria De Giusti,John Frederick Osborn,Lucia Pacifico +6 more
TL;DR: Procalcitonin is a promising marker for the diagnosis of early- and late-onset sepsis in neonates at high risk for this infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
C-Reactive Protein, Interleukin-6, and Procalcitonin in the Immediate Postnatal Period: Influence of Illness Severity, Risk Status, Antenatal and Perinatal Complications, and Infection
Claudio Chiesa,Gabriella Pellegrini,Alessandra Panero,John Frederick Osborn,Fabrizio Signore,Marcello Assumma,Lucia Pacifico +6 more
TL;DR: Early-onset neonatal infection was associated with significant increases in CRP, IL-6, and PCT concentrations at all three time points, independent of illness severity, but among babies without infection, higher SNAP and SNAP-PE scores were associated with higher IL- 6 concentrations at birth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosis of Neonatal Sepsis: A Clinical and Laboratory Challenge
Claudio Chiesa,Alessandra Panero,John Frederick Osborn,Antonella F. Simonetti,Lucia Pacifico +4 more
TL;DR: The evaluation of tests for neonatal sepsis is important because the infection may present a very serious threat to the baby and the result of a diagnostic test must be evaluated in the light of the clinical condition of the baby.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low 25(OH)D3 levels are associated with total adiposity, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension in Caucasian children and adolescents
Lucia Pacifico,Caterina Anania,John Frederick Osborn,Flavia Ferraro,Enea Bonci,Eugenia Olivero,Claudio Chiesa +6 more
TL;DR: Low 25(OH)D(3) levels in Caucasian children are inversely related to total adiposity, MetS, and hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serial Measurements of C-Reactive Protein and Interleukin-6 in the Immediate Postnatal Period: Reference Intervals and Analysis of Maternal and Perinatal Confounders
Claudio Chiesa,Claudio Chiesa,Fabrizio Signore,Marcello Assumma,Elsa Buffone,Paola Tramontozzi,John Frederick Osborn,Lucia Pacifico,Lucia Pacifico +8 more
TL;DR: The patterns of CRP and IL-6 responses in the healthy neonate should be taken into account to optimize their use in the diagnosis of early-onset neonatal sepsis.
