title: [The state of bulbar and spinal autonomic centers in newborn infants with reflex respiratory failure syndrome].
abstract: A study has been made of pathomorphology of the bulbar (parasympathetic) and spinal (sympathetic) vegetative centers in 90 neonates (premature and full-term) with pneumopathies, bacterial pneumonias and diaphragmatic hernias. Lesions of these centers involve a broad range of circulatory and dystrophic alterations caused by hypoxia and bacterial intoxication. With time the degree of lesions of the vegetative centers in neonates decreases, whereas in neonates with pneumonias, such lesions remain predominant. The presence of these lesions aggravates the disease and reduces adaptation potentialities of the newborn. A greater vulnerability to damage of the newborn's vegetative centers is responsible for their lesser lifetime.
