Description
Summary:To predict the risk of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) development according to routine complete blood count (CBC) parameters. The medical records and CBC results of 150 premature neonates were retrospectively evaluated. As ROP develops 1 month after birth, first month CBC profiles of neonates without ROP (non-ROP), with ROP (ROP group), and those with Type 1, Type 2, and Stage 1+2 ROP were compared. Besides known statistical methods like Student's t-test, logistic regression and classification & regression tree (C&RT) analysis were also done to identify a reliable quantitative predictive parameter. Mean gestational age and birth weight of the ROP group (n=99) and non-ROP (n=43) group were 29.39±3.43 and 32.05±2.20 weeks and 1382.44±545.30 and 1691.51±360.84 grams, respectively (p
