ABSTRACT The relationships of serum (Se) to Saliva (Sa) concentrations of Theophylline (Theo) and total methylxanthines (Mx) (Mx = Theo + Caffeine (Caf)) have been established in neonates
treated with Theo for apnea (J.Pediatr.96:494,1980). Serum to Sa relationships derived with additional studies have been crossvalidated against the old data. The standard deviations (SD) and
correlation coefficients (R) for the Se to Sa relationships are presented below. Data for Mx is presented because of Theo to Caf conversion in neonates. Crossvalidation results indicate
that R is high for Mx using both models and for Theo only for the ratio model. The discrepancy between Theo and Mx results may be caused by the wide interindividual differences in conversion
from Theo to Caf. ARTICLE PDF AUTHOR INFORMATION AUTHORS AND AFFILIATIONS * So. IIlinois Univ. Sch. of Med., Depts. of Ped. and Pharmacol, and St. John's Hospital, Springfield, IL.
