Résumé

As the clinical manifestation of neonatal infection is nonspecific and characterised by varied clinical features, it is highly problematic to establish an early diagnosis. Recently, hopes have been raised by the new acute-phase protein-pentraxin 3 (PTX3). PTX3 belongs to the family of long pentraxins, which is synthesized in numerous cells like endothelial cells, macrophages, and monocytes infiltrating sites of inflammation. There were statistically significant differences in PTX3 levels between healthy and sick newborns both in the umbilical cord ( Serum PTX3 is an important and specific biomarker of early infection. It is already elevated in the umbilical cord, so measuring PTX3 concentration might be useful in the early prediction of infection in newborns.
