380) A 30-minute-old male newborn is noted to have central cyanosis. He was born to a 16-year-old white female at 28 weeks gestation. His respirations are rapid and shallow at 70/min. His other vital signs are stable. On examination, there is audible grunting, intercostal and subcostal retractions, nasal flaring, and duskiness. On auscultation, fine rales are heard over the lung bases. Nasal oxygenation does not improve his cyanosis. A chest roentgenogram shows fine reticular granularity, predominantly in the lower lobes. Arterial blood gas analysis shows evidence of hypoxemia and metabolic acidosis. What is the most likely diagnosis of this patient?

Examination of the throat reveals mild pharyngitis. Her abdomen is diffusely tender, especially the lower abdomen. Rectal examination reveals tenderness anteriorly on the right side. Stool guaiac is negative. A pelvic examination is performed, and there is evidence of cervical tenderness and questionable fullness in the right adnexal area. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis?
