Background: Data regarding the incidence and mortality of necrotizing enterocolitis trends are scarce in the literature. Recently, some preventive strategies have been confirmed (probiotics) or increased (breastfeeding rate).

Born too early and too small: higher order cognitive function and brain at risk at ages 8–16 [PDF]
Prematurity presents a risk for higher order cognitive functions. Some of these deficits manifest later in development, when these functions are expected to mature. However, the causes and consequences of prematurity are still unclear.

Premature infants are highly vulnerable to aberrant gastrointestinal tract colonization, a process that may lead to diseases like necrotizing enterocolitis. Thus, spread of potential pathogens among hospitalized infants is of great concern.

Necrotizing Enterocolitis: The Future [PDF]
Progress in our understanding of the pathophysiology, prevention and treatment of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) has been hampered for many reasons. Included among these is the fact that what we are calling “NEC” is likely to represent different disease processes, which need to be delineated before evaluating individual pathogenic mechanisms and ...

In extremely preterm infants, nasal continuous positive airway pressure in the delivery room is recommended at the beginning of respiratory support to maintain functional residual volume, improve lung compliance, and increase oxygenation. However, when used in developing nations, these high‐quality studies from developed nations revealed some different

MALFORMATIONS OF INTESTINE IN PREMATURE INFANTS UNDER THE MASK OF NECROTIZING ENTEROCOLITIS
Some congenital malformations of the gastrointestinal tract in premature infants are difficult to diagnose due to a lack of specific clinical picture. As a rule, they are masked under necrotizing enterocolitis resulting in the improper management of such

Anemia and retinopathy of prematurity: A narrative review
Anemia in infants who are at greatest risk of developing severe retinopathy of prematurity is almost universal. There is plausible evidence in the literature correlating anemia with severe ROP. However, the relationship is complex, and further study is needed to better understand the potential molecular mechanisms for anemia‐associated ROP.
