This volume concentrates on recent research developments in the field of neonatal hematology and immunology, building on concepts presented in the previous two volumes.According to their most recent research findings the authors propose methods to prevent and treat important neonatal illnesses, like severe infections.This proceedings is an invaluable reference guide for those dealing with hematologic and immunologic deficiencies during the perinatal period. Hematologists, immunologists and neonatologists will find this an excellent reference for their work, while pediatricians, obstetricians, microbiologists, gastroenterologists, virologists, neurologists and physiologists will also find it of great value. |
