PMID: 32381469.In this study, the plasma and interstitial (GCMS) glucose levels were measured in term healthy newborns for a period of 5 days to understand the changes in the glucose levels after birth. The findings suggest that in normal term healthy newborns if hypoglycaemia persists after the 4th day of life, t...

PMID: 35302645.Brief Summary: This systematic review assessed the evidence for oral dextrose gel to treat hypoglycemia in newborns. Oral dextrose gel compared with placebo gel probably improved the correction of hypoglycaemic events and may result in a slight reduction in the risk of ma...
