Born too early and too small: higher order cognitive function and brain at risk at ages 8–16 [PDF]

, 2019
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.

Measures of nutrition intake and growth reported in preterm nutrition studies: A scoping review

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract There are inconsistent recommendations in available guidelines and uncertainty regarding the exact nutrient requirements for preterm infants, partly because of inconsistent outcome reporting in nutrition intervention studies. To support development of a minimum reporting set, we undertook a scoping review to identify measures of nutrition ...

Necrotizing Enterocolitis: The Future [PDF]

Neonatology, 2020
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 ...

Hydrostatic low‐volume enemas in infants with birth weight ≤1000 g or gestational age ≤28 weeks: A controlled interventional study

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Standardized hydrostatic enemas improve the intestinal outcome in premature infants. Abstract Objective This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of standardized minimally invasive hydrostatic low‐volume saline enemas in infants with a birth weight ≤1000 g or gestational age ≤28 weeks and delayed meconium passage.

Gut bacteria are rarely shared by co-hospitalized premature infants, regardless of necrotizing enterocolitis development

eLife, 2015
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.

Expanding the Estimated Fetal Weight Definition of Growth Restriction by Adding Small Abdominal Circumference

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objective The Society for Maternal‐Fetal Medicine's (SMFM) diagnostic criteria for fetal growth restriction (FGR) recently added abdominal circumference (AC) <10th percentile to estimated fetal weight (EFW) <10th percentile; however, its prediction of neonatal morbidity is unknown.

Necrotizing enterocolitis

Medisur, 2005
Necrosantizing enterocolitis constitutes the most frequent and devastator gastrointestinal emergency in newborn patients, affecting especially premature patients and those with low weight (< 1500 g) during the two first weeks of life, that by some motive

MALFORMATIONS OF INTESTINE IN PREMATURE INFANTS UNDER THE MASK OF NECROTIZING ENTEROCOLITIS

Вопросы современной педиатрии, 2015
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

Flow cytometry to assess the counts and physiological state of Cronobacter sakazakii cells after heat exposure [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Cronobacter sakazakii is an opportunistic pathogen associated with outbreaks of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, septicemia, and meningitis. Reconstituted powdered infant formulae (PIF) is the most common vehicle of infection. Plate count methods do not provide direct information on the physiological status of cells.

Analysis of a nonlinear necrotic tumor model with angiogenesis and a periodic supply of external nutrients [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
In this paper, we consider a free boundary problem modeling the growth of spherically symmetric necrotic tumors with angiogenesis and a $\omega$-periodic supply $\phi(t)$ of external nutrients. In the model, the consumption rate of the nutrient and the proliferation rate of tumor cells $S(\sigma)$ are both general nonlinear functions.
