Since the 1960s, several reports have been presented to explain how the ingestion of human milk is related to neonatal jaundice. Recently, the jaundiced neonates whose mother’s milk contain sub- stances (eg, pregnane 3a, 20β-diol, lipoprotein lipase, free fatty acid, β-glucuronidase etc) facilitating the reabsorption of unconjugated bilirubin in the neonatal intestine through the enhancement of the enterohepatic circulation, were called the breast milk...

Generally, infant of diabetic mother (IDM) have complex multisystems disease resulting in a high incidence of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)-IDM appears as the early onset, transient and non-familial cariomyopathy in neonatal period. The etiology of the left ventricular outflow obstruction in these neonates is not clear. But, it is possible that the asymmetrical septal hypertrophy was a manifestation of the generalized...

Doxorubicin is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of leukemia, lymphoma and various solid tumors. Because of dose-dependent degenerative cardiomyopathy, however, doxorubicin theraphy may be discontinued ineffectively early. Doxorubicin-induced conges- tive heart failure carries a very poor prognosis since it is lethal in 60% of patients. Various methods for evaluating the cardiotoxic effect have been employed such as EKG, systolic...
