phenobarbital has been researched along with Kernicterus in 24 studies
Phenobarbital: A barbituric acid derivative that acts as a nonselective central nervous system depressant. It potentiates GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID action on GABA-A RECEPTORS, and modulates chloride currents through receptor channels. It also inhibits glutamate induced depolarizations.
phenobarbital : A member of the class of barbiturates, the structure of which is that of barbituric acid substituted at C-5 by ethyl and phenyl groups.
Kernicterus: A term used pathologically to describe BILIRUBIN staining of the BASAL GANGLIA; BRAIN STEM; and CEREBELLUM and clinically to describe a syndrome associated with HYPERBILIRUBINEMIA. Clinical features include athetosis, MUSCLE SPASTICITY or hypotonia, impaired vertical gaze, and DEAFNESS. Nonconjugated bilirubin enters the brain and acts as a neurotoxin, often in association with conditions that impair the BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER (e.g., SEPSIS). This condition occurs primarily in neonates (INFANT, NEWBORN), but may rarely occur in adults. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p613)

"Sodium phenobarbital and various hormones, compounds capable of hepatic enzyme induction, were given to an infant boy with congenital, nonhemolytic, unconjugated, hyperbilirubinemia and severe kernicterus for prolonged periods between the ages of 2 and 25 months to determine their effect on serum bilirubin concentrations." | 7.65 | Effect of sodium phenobarbital on bilirubin metabolism in an infant with congenital, nonhemolytic, unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, and kernicterus. ( Crigler, JF; Gold, NI, 1969) |
"A 37-year-old mother with CNS type II was treated with phenobarbital during her pregnancy and her bilirubin levels were monitored." | 4.85 | Pregnancy outcome in maternal Crigler-Najjar syndrome type II: a case report and systematic review of the literature. ( Koelbl, H; Kohlschmidt, N; Passuello, V; Puhl, AG; Skala, C; Steiner, E; Wirth, S, 2009) |
"An understanding of the pathophysiologic factors causing kernicterus, the determination of infants at greatest risk for developing kernicterus, even the cornerstone of therapy for kernicterus--controlling the bilirubin level--are in a current (and continuous) state of revision." | 4.76 | Kernicterus 1980: problems and practices viewed from the perspective of the practicing clinician. ( Harper, RG; Kierney, CM; Sia, CG, 1980) |
" The limited bilirubin binding capacity of human serum albumin, and the fact that kernicterus can occur once the serum unconjugated bilirubin concentration exceeds this capacity, makes the assessment of non-albumin bound free bilirubin valuable in cases of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia." | 3.65 | The albumin binding of unconjugated bilirubin in serum.
