This study evaluates the use of indirect calorimetry to measure metabolic status in neonatal mice, finding it viable for capturing physiological changes in health and septic states.

The paper shows that boosting TCA cycle activity through nutritional strategies improves neonatal host defense against infection by enhancing disease tolerance and resistance.

This study compares metabolic and defense strategies in preterm piglets infected with S. epidermidis, finding that survivors exhibit early resistance and later tolerance, linked to mitochondrial metabolism and improved survival.
