To the Editor.— The authors of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research network report1 of very low birth weight outcomes deserve a lot of praise for providing a survey of neonatal practices. But they are much too polite. In the discussion of "important intercenter variation as well as differences in the philosophy of care," the authors mildly note, "the practice of neonatal medicine remains in part an art rather than an exact science."

Neonatal Immune System

SEPSIS CONTINUES TO BE A significant cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. In a recent study by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network, 21 percent of very low birth weight neonates older than three days of age had one or more episodes of proven bloodstream sepsis (range for the 15 network centers: 11–32 percent). The study’s authors assert that strategies to decrease the incidence of nosocomial infection and the related social and economic impact are urgently needed.1 Researchers have been exploring various modalities, including immunomodulation, as adjuncts to antibiotics to enhance the neonatal immune system. Generally, immunomodulators act to stimulate or augment the immune system indirectly.
