Utility of GutCheck-NEC and e-NEC Scoring Systems in Assessing the Risk of Necrotizing Enterocolitis in Preterm Infants

Güncel Pediatri
Introduction: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the leading gastrointestinal emergencies causing significant morbidity and mortality in premature neonates. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the GutCheck-NEC (GCN) and e-NEC scoring

Abstract Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), including edoxaban, are widely used for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism. While gastrointestinal bleeding and diarrhea are recognized adverse effects, DOAC‐induced enterocolitis has not been established as a distinct clinical entity.

A Rapid Colorimetric Method for Determining Calcium, Inorganic Phosphorus, and Zinc in Human Milk Using Clinical Laboratory Reagents

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We evaluated a colorimetric assay using clinical reagents for determining Ca, IP, and Zn in human milk. Significant correlations were observed between Ca, IP, and Zn levels determined by colorimetric assay and Ca, total P, and Zn levels determined by ICP‐AES.

Integrative Genomics Reveals Causal Pleiotropy and Therapeutic Opportunities at the Interface of Acute Pancreatitis and Infection

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Understanding the genetic links between acute pancreatitis (AP) and its infectious comorbidities is crucial for prognosis and therapy, yet remains underexplored. Methods We conducted a comprehensive post‐GWAS analysis using large‐scale summary statistics for AP and 16 infectious diseases. To pinpoint pleiotropic genes, we integrated

Dichotomous development of the gut microbiome in preterm infants. [PDF]

, 2018
BackgroundPreterm infants are at risk of developing intestinal dysbiosis with an increased proportion of Gammaproteobacteria. In this study, we sought the clinical determinants of the relative abundance of feces-associated Gammaproteobacteria in very low

Enteral and intravenous supplementation of arginine and citrulline fail to prevent necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm neonatal pigs

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common gastrointestinal emergency in preterm infants with a morality rate that approaches 50%. Arginine has been widely studied in the field of clinical nutrition as a supplement for patients experiencing critical illness because it can be metabolized into nitric oxide, an important agent ...

Gut bacteria and necrotizing enterocolitis: cause or effect? [PDF]

, 2015
Development of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is considered to be dependent on the bacterial colonisation of the gut. With little concordance between published data and a recent study failing to detect a common strain in infants with NEC, more questions
