Importance of Serum Osteocalcin as Early Biomarker for Osteopenia in Preterm Neonates Receiving Total Parenteral Nutrition [PDF]
Background: Prematurity osteopenia is known by bone mineral content reduction, which occurs especially due to decreased mineral stores in premature infants that may be excessive by increased mineral demands in the neonatal period.

The long-term impact of very preterm birth on adult bone mineral density
Introduction: Preterm infants are at increased risk of osteopenia of prematurity due to insufficient bone mineral accretion. Data on long term effects of prematurity on bone health are conflicting.

OSTEOPENIA: THE LINK BETWEEN PREMATURITY AND MYOPIA [PDF]
Children who were horn preterm with very low birth weight more often develop flattened heads and later myopia than children born at term. The dolichocephaly of many VLBW infants is often associated with a high arched palate and protruded eyeballs. Until now, the link has not been established between myopia and low birth weight. Hypothesis: This molding
