Diffusion-weighted MRI and urinary Activin-A are potential predictors of severity in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy

Diffusion-weighted MRI and urinary Activin-A are potential predictors of severity in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy

Background: Early diagnosis and treatment are important to reduce neonatal morbidity and mortality occurring from hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Objective: We aimed to correlate between urinary Activin-A and MRI (conventional and diffusion-weighted) and the degree of HIE according to Sarnat...
