“…In the study of Aydemir et al serum BNP level increased in neonates with transient tachypnea of the newborn compared to controls. Also, they demonstrated that BNP plasma level measurement can be beneficial for predicting the probable persistent tachypnea in infants and the mechanical ventilation requirements (30). The result of our study is also in agreement with the study by Aydemir et al (30) which demonstrated that serum BNP level has correlation with increased RDS scoring.…”

“…In our study, we observed a high incidence of TTN neonates who were delivered by CS which is one of the most important risk factor of TTN and this results were in agreement with many other studies which also stated that most of the cases of TTN are born by CS [24][25][26][27][28].…”

“…In our study we observed a significant increase in the lactate and LDH levels in neonates with TTN in comparison with the neonates in the control group and this in agreement with studies done on another marker which is N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide in predicting the severity of TTN [26].…”

“…Aydemir et al (23) reported increased plasma NT-ProBNP levels in "severe" cases of transient tacyhpnea of the newborn (TTN). This study documented that echocardiographic evaluation revealed preserved systolic functions in all infants although "near to normal limit" was detected in severe cases (23). Authors linked this rise to the contribution of natriuretic peptides in the regulation of extracellular fluid volume.…”
