25. Amamentação do recem-nascido pre-termo : olhar materno
his work is an exploratory-descriptive study with qualitative approach that aims to unrnask breast-feeding of the premature baby, having as informer the woman/mother. For a better understanding of the process of maternal breast-feeding, we carried out a revision of literature on: social-historic and cultural aspects of breast-feeding; the anatomy of the brea

26. Nasal endotracheal intubation in a premature infant with a nasal encephalocele.
After a difficult nasal intubation a premature infant leaked cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from one nostril. After developing bacterial meningitis, the baby was referred for neurosurgical management of the CSF fistula. Transaxial computed tomograms demonstrated a nasal encephalocele, but coronal scans were needed to show the defect in the cribriform plate.

27. Hyperthyroidism and pregnancy
Pregnant women with hyperthyroidism need careful management as some may be at increased risk of fetal loss, pre-eclampsia, heart failure, premature labour, and having a low birthweight baby

28. A recognisable short stature syndrome with premature aging and pigmented naevi.
We report the progress up to the age of seven years of a small for dates baby whose face and neck are strikingly devoid of subcutaneous tissue and who has, in addition, multiple pigmented naevi.

29. Neonatal meningitis caused by Citrobacter koseri
Three cases of neonatal meningitis, two of which were fatal, occurred in a premature baby unit during a period of one week. A fourth case occurred in the same unit six months later. Citrobacter koseri was isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid of all four cases. Detailed biochemical and serological examination of the organisms showed that two distinct biosero

30. On the death of a baby.
Andrew was a desperately premature baby weighing under two pounds. He died after months of "heroic' efforts in an intensive care facility. The story of his short cruel institutionalised life is a case study in the limits and excesses of modern medicine. The night he told us our son Andrew was about to die the doctor who had taken charge of him six months bef

31. Computerised determination of spontaneous inspiratory and expiratory times in premature neonates during intermittent positive pressure ventilation. II: Results from 20 babies.
Twenty premature infants ventilated for respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) were studied using a new computerised technique to determine spontaneous inspiratory and expiratory times. The technique is continuous and non-invasive. Infants were studied during intermittent positive pressure ventilation for periods of up to 45 minutes. Median birth weight and ges

32. The clinicopathological features of three babies with osteogenesis imperfecta resulting from the substitution of glycine by valine in the pro alpha 1 (I) chain of type I procollagen.
The features of three babies with perinatal lethal osteogenesis imperfecta (OI II) resulting from substitutions of glycine by valine in the triple helical domain of the alpha 1(I) chain of type I collagen were studied. The babies were heterozygous for this substitution at residue 1006 in case 1 (OI35), 973 in case 2 (OI59), and 256 in case 3 (OI7B). OI35 had

33. Ten centre trial of artificial surfactant (artificial lung expanding compound) in very premature babies. Ten Centre Study Group.
A protein free artificial surfactant (artificial lung expanding compound; ALEC) composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylglycerol was assessed for its effect on the main complications of prematurity in a prospective two stage randomised trial of 328 unselected babies delivered at between 25 and 29 weeks of gestation. Babies were randomised

34. Expression of a human T-cell protein-tyrosine-phosphatase in baby hamster kidney cells.
A human T-cell cDNA encoding a 48-kDa protein-tyrosine-phosphatase (PTPase; protein-tyrosine-phosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.48) was cloned into a mammalian expression vector and introduced into baby hamster kidney cells, and stable colonies were isolated. The expressed PTPase was found to be associated with the particulate fraction of the cells, where

35. Transformation-defective mutant of adenovirus type 5 containing a single altered E1a mRNA species.
A mutant of adenovirus type 5 containing an octanucleotide insert in region E1a of the viral genome was constructed. The insert was present in only one (13s) of the three overlapping mRNA's synthesized from this region. The insert was within the sequences removed by RNA splicing during the production of the other two nRNA's. The insertion resulted in a shif

36. Outcome of Pregnancy in Women with Mechanical Valves
In women who have prosthetic heart valves, pregnancy is risky for mother and fetus. Heparin has been considered safer for the fetus than warfarin, but may not provide adequate anticoagulation for the mother. We examined prospectively gathered data from 100 pregnancies in 67 women with mechanical valves (age range, 19 to 45 years). A subgroup of 20 patients w
