Abstract

Neonatal mortality has become one of the important indicators for measuring the level of health development in a country.Because of the low immunity, newborns are prone to developing various infectious diseases after birth, and the infection is difficult to control.Early detection, as well as timely and rational use of antibiotics to treat infections have become an urgent problem to be solved.This review describes the predictive value of C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, interleukin 6, and hepcidin in cord blood for early-onset sepsis in neonates, and illustrates the action and mechanism of various factors, as well as the interaction of maternity, placenta and fetus.

Key words
