Proactive Insulin Escalation for Antenatal Betamethasone‐Induced Hyperglycaemia in Women With Diabetes: A Prospective Cohort Study

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In patients with diabetes, antenatal glucocorticoids can induce transient maternal hyperglycaemia for approximately 72 h. This may be associated with adverse outcomes, including neonatal hypoglycaemia, prompting recommendations for prophylactic increases in insulin by some expert groups; however, there are no validated protocols.

Probiotic supplementation and risk of necrotizing enterocolitis and mortality among extremely preterm infants—the Probiotics in Extreme Prematurity in Scandinavia (PEPS) trial: study protocol for a multicenter, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, and registry-based randomized controlled trial

Trials
Background Extremely preterm infants, defined as those born before 28 weeks’ gestational age, are a very vulnerable patient group at high risk for adverse outcomes, such as necrotizing enterocolitis and death. Necrotizing enterocolitis is an inflammatory

Clinician's Approach to Antibiotic Treatment and Management of Preterm Prelabour Rupture of Membranes (PPROM) in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand—A Survey

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) is a common obstetric complication with significant maternal and foetal consequences. There is a lack of contemporary evidence regarding the optimal management of PPROM, including the best antibiotic regimen and management at previable gestations.

Ultrasonography in diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo), 2009
Necrotizing enterocolitis is one of the most frequent gastrointestinal emergencies in neonates, and it is generally detected clinically and radiographically. Early diagnosis is fundamental in order to limit morbidity and mortality.

Necrotizing Enterocolitis and Infection

Clinics in Perinatology, 1994
Infections are considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). The evidence for infectious causes of NEC is reexamined, with special attention to the clinical definition and reported outbreaks of NEC. Future areas of study are proposed.

Management of retinopathy of prematurity in a tertiary referral neonatal intensive care unit: Treatment rates and the impact of outsourcing laser therapy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To describe the treatment rate for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) at a tertiary referral neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in the south‐western region of the Netherlands. In addition, we evaluated the impact of outsourcing laser treatment, implemented in 2018, by comparing treatment characteristics from 3 years prior and 3 years ...

Parental Consent to a Neonatal Clinical Study: The Roles of Uncertainty, Burden of Sample Collection and Societal Expectations

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Recruiting participants for neonatal clinical studies may be challenging because parental consent is required shortly after birth. This study aimed to explore reasons for parental decline of participation in a neonatal study. Method This qualitative sub‐study was conducted in the Capital Region of Denmark between June 2022 and April 2023 ...

The Gut Resistome Atlas in Preterm Infants Enables Prediction of Necrotizing Enterocolitis Onset. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
The gut resistome of preterm infants and its clinical relevance remain poorly understood. This study performs in‐depth integrative analyses of 5,684 gut metagenomes from preterm infants, uncovering distinct features that diverge from term infants. Notably, the gut resistome of preterm infants converges 9 days before necrotizing enterocolitis onset ...

Population‐Based Cohort Study for Development of National Retinopathy of Prematurity Screening Criteria

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Screening criteria for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) vary among countries. Early detection of ROP and minimising the burden of screening are important. Methods We analysed data from very preterm infants born in Switzerland between 2006 and 2022.
