| hyaline membrane disease of the newborn | A disease seen especially in premature neonates with respiratory distress; characterised postmortem by atelectasis and alveolar ducts lined by an eosinophilic membrane; also associated with reduced amounts of lung surfactant. Synonym: hyaline membrane syndrome, respiratory distress syndrome of the newborn. (05 Mar 2000) |

| newborn jaundice | <paediatrics> A normal condition of elevated bilirubin in the bloodstream of a newborn. This occurs secondary to immaturity of liver cells (cannot effectively metabolise bilirubin) and the increased destruction of red blood cells (further releasing bilirubin into the bloodstream) that is normally seen in the newborn. The jaundice usually appears between the 2nd and 5th days of life and usually clears by 2 weeks. Other factors which can potentiate jaundice in the newborn include: sepsis, biliary atresia, Rhesus incompatibility, galactosaemia, cephalohaematoma, polycythaemia, G-6-P-D deficiency and congenital rubella, syphilis, toxoplasmosis or cytomegalovirus infection.

| newborn screening | Tests of newborns to detect those at increased risk for disorders such as pku (phenylketonuria) and hypothyroidism. (12 Dec 1998) |
| subcutaneous fat necrosis of newborn | Indurated plaques and nodules appearing usually a few days or a few weeks after birth and usually resolving within a few months, characterised microscopically by birefringent needle-shaped crystals within necrotic fat cells; the condition remains localised, unlike sclerema neonatorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| disease, haemolytic, of the newborn | Abnormal breakup of red blood cells in the foetus or newborn. (12 Dec 1998) |
| infant, newborn | An infant during the first month after birth. (12 Dec 1998) |
| infant, newborn, diseases | Diseases of newborn infants present at birth (congenital) or developing within the first month of birth. It does not include hereditary diseases not manifesting at birth or within the first 30 days of life nor does it include inborn errors of metabolism. Both hereditary diseases and metabolism, inborn errors are available as general concepts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| jaundice of the newborn | Icterus which can be accentuated by many factors including excessive haemolysis, sepsis, neonatal hepatitis or congenital atresia of the biliary system. Synonym: physiologic icterus, jaundice of the newborn, neonatal jaundice, physiologic jaundice. (05 Mar 2000) |
| leukocytosis of the newborn | An apparently "physiologic" leukocytosis usually observed in newborn infants, in whom the white blood cell counts are usually greater than 10,000 per cu mm, and sometimes range to 45,000 per cu mm, resulting chiefly from increased numbers of neutrophils (especially single and bilobed forms). On the third or fourth day of life, the count generally decreases rapidly, and then fluctuates for several days; beginning about the fourth week of life, a relative lymphocytosis is observed, and this normally continues for a few years. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute bacterial endocarditis | A type of bacterial endocarditis caused by pyogenic organisms such as haemolytic streptococci or staphylococci. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adhesins, bacterial | Cell-surface components or appendages of bacteria that facilitate adhesion (bacterial adhesion) to other cells or to inanimate surfaces. most fimbriae (fimbriae, bacterial) of gram-negative bacteria function as adhesins, but in many cases it is a minor subunit protein at the tip of the fimbriae that is the actual adhesin. In gram-positive bacteria, a protein or polysaccharide surface layer serves as the specific adhesin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antibodies, bacterial | Immunoglobulins induced by substances elaborated by bacteria that have an antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antigens, bacterial | Substances elaborated by bacteria that have antigenic activity. (12 Dec 1998) |
