Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators aimed to evaluate the effect of G-CSF administration in septic neonates on neutrophil production and CD11b expression.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Neonates are susceptible to septicemia secondary to quantitative and qualitative neutrophilic defects. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulates myeloid progenitor cell proliferation and induces selective neutrophil functions.
