The aim of the study was to explore the iron contend of patients with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (NHB) and its correlation with clinical indicators. A total of 34 patients with NHB and 15 subjects in healthy controls (HC) group were included and underwent laboratory examinations and magnetic resona...
