Impaired energy metabolism in brains of newborn infants with increased cerebral echodensities.

Intracellular energy metabolism was studied by phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy in the brains of 27 preterm and term infants with increased echodensities consistent with hypoxic-ischaemic injury and 18 comparable normal infants. In the normal infants the phosphocreatine (PCr)/inorganic orthophosphate (Pi) ratio increased significantly from 0.77 +/- 0.24 (95% confidence limits) at a gestational plus postnatal age of 28 weeks to 1.09 +/- 0.24 at 42 weeks. 9 of the 15 infants with increased echodensities whose PCr/Pi ratios fell below the normal range died; in all 6 survivors cerebral atrophy developed (cysts in brain tissue or microcephaly). In contrast, all 12 infants with increased echodensities whose PCr/Pi ratios remained within the normal range survived, although cerebral atrophy developed in 3 with ratios towards the lower limit of normal.[1]
