Long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of significant neonatal jaundice in Taiwan from 2000–2003: a nationwide, population-based cohort study
Abstract Newborns with significant neonatal jaundice (SNJ) would admit for evaluation and/or intervention due to an earlier or more rapid increase in bilirubin level. Bilirubin-induced neurological dysfunction in this population might be underestimated. We aimed to investigate the risk of long-term...
