Analysis of the radiographs of 9 infants who died of proved Group B streptococcal sepsis revealed a typical pattern of hyaline membrane disease despite birth weights of over 2,000 g in most cases. Pleural effusions subsequently developed in 6 infants; the rest had pleural fluid at postmortem examination. This is an unusual finding for either hyaline membrane disease or non-group B streptococcal sepsis in the neonate, and may have implications for the early diagnosis and treatment of this usually lethal infection.
对9例死于已证实的B组链球菌败血症的婴儿的X光片分析显示，尽管大多数病例出生体重超过2000克，但仍呈现出典型的透明膜病模式。随后，6例婴儿出现了胸腔积液；其余婴儿在尸检时发现有胸腔积液。这对于新生儿的透明膜病或非B组链球菌败血症来说都是不寻常的发现，可能对这种通常致命的感染的早期诊断和治疗具有启示意义。
