Factors influencing C-reactive protein status on admission in neonates after birth

To explore the factors influencing C-reactive protein (CRP) status in neonates on admission after birth. 820 newborns born and hospitalized at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from Jan. 2020 to Dec. 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Maternal medical history and medication use during pregnancy, neonatal demographic information and status at birth were collected through the electronic medical record system. Statistical software was used to analyze the possible relationship between perinatal factors and CRP on admission after birth. A total of 820 neonates were analyzed, including 463 males and 357 females with a mean gestational age (GA) of 36.07 ± 3.30 weeks. (1) Multifactor Logistic regression analysis: larger GA (OR: 1.13, 95%CI: 1.00-1.28, P = 0.042), premature rupture of membranes (PROM) ≥ 18 h (OR: 2.39, 95%CI: 1.35-4.23, P = 0.003) and maternal autoimmune diseases (OR: 5.30, 95%CI: 2.15-13.07, P
