Abstract
Background: Hemodynamically significant PDA (HSPDA) is associated with increased mortality and several significant morbidities including necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), cerebral ischemia, intraventricular hemorrhage, pulmonary hemorrhage, or bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The aim of study: was to assess the cerebral hemodynamic changes and NEC in preterm infants diagnosed with HSPDA and to investigate the role of Human Epithelial derived neutrophil chemoattractant-78/ C-X-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 5 (ENA-78/CXCL5) as a diagnostic tool for NEC in HS PDA. Methods: This prospective case-control research was carried out on preterm infants (GA
