Evaluation of a Clinical Risk Score for Preterm Necrotising Enterocolitis: The ‘Check‐NEC Score’
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Early prediction of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in preterm infants is important given its significant health, economic and social–emotional burden. We aimed to validate a clinical risk score (Check‐NEC Score [CNS]) for this purpose in preterm infants.

Maternal Obesity and MicroRNAs in Breast Milk: Implications for Infant Developmental Programming
ABSTRACT This review explores the relationship between maternal obesity and alterations in the expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in breast milk, highlighting how these changes may influence the developmental programming of the infant. Evidence suggests that maternal obesity can affect the bioactive composition of breast milk, including miRNA profiles ...

Enteral Green Beans in the Management of Neonatal Irritant Diaper Dermatitis
ABSTRACT Irritant diaper dermatitis (IDD) is frequently observed in neonatal intensive care units and is often exacerbated by chronic loose stools. Despite standard treatments, erosive or persistent IDD remains challenging to manage. We introduced pureed green beans into enteral feeds as a source of fiber to improve stool consistency and reduce skin ...

Abstract Background Extremely preterm neonates often require red blood cell (RBC) transfusions derived from adult donors. These transfusions introduce adult hemoglobin into a neonatal hematopoietic system dominated by fetal hemoglobin (HbF), shifting the oxygen‐dissociation curve and increasing oxygen delivery to immature tissues.

Serological screening for cytomegalovirus in a leucodepleted blood supply: A systematic review
Abstract Background and Objectives Cytomegalovirus (CMV) causes harm in at‐risk populations. Selection of seronegative donors has been used to prevent transmission. Leucodepletion reduces the potential for CMV transmission; however, the residual risk is uncertain, leading to variability in practice.

Association of red blood cell transfusions with periventricular leukomalacia in very preterm infants
Abstract Background and Objectives Red blood cell (RBC) transfusions have been associated with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and adverse long‐term neurodevelopmental outcomes in very preterm infants. Although lower transfusion thresholds reduce the incidence of ROP, they have not improved neurological outcome. Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is a
