BACKGROUND: Extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) represents a prevalent condition observed in preterm neonates, which poses potential adverse implications for both neonatal development and long-term health outcomes. The manifestation of EUGR has been intricately associated with perturbations in microbial and metabolic profiles. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of the gut microbial network in early colonizers among preterm neonates with EUGR. METHODS: Twenty-nine preterm infants participated in this study, comprising 14 subjects in the EUGR group and 15 in the normal growth (AGA) group...

BACKGROUND: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a serious gastrointestinal disease, primarily affects preterm newborns and occurs after 7 days of life (late-onset NEC, LO-NEC). Unfortunately, over the past several decades, not much progress has been made in its treatment or prevention. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for LO-NEC, and the impact of LO-NEC on short-term outcomes in very preterm infants (VPIs) with a focus on nutrition and different onset times. METHOD: Clinical data of VPIs were retrospectively collected from 28 hospitals in seven different regions of China from September 2019 to December 2020...

Perinatal nutritional factors may lead to decreased nephron endowment, decreased kidney function, and long-term development of chronic kidney disease and non-communicable diseases. At the same time, optimal postnatal nutrition and catch-up growth are associated with better neurodevelopmental outcomes in preterm infants. Therefore, nutritional management of preterm infants is a major challenge for neonatologists. In this context, the Section of Nutrition, Gastroenterology and Metabolism reviewed the current knowledge on nutritional issues related to kidney function...

INTRODUCTION: Preterm birth is a leading cause of infant mortality and morbidity. Despite the improvement in the overall mortality in premature infants, the intact survival of these infants remains a significant challenge. Screening the physical growth of infants is fundamental to potentially reducing the escalation of this disorder. Recently, machine learning models have been used to predict the growth restrictions of infants; however, they frequently rely on conventional risk factors and cross-sectional data and do not leverage the longitudinal database associated with medical data from laboratory tests...

BACKGROUND: Extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) is common in very-low-birth-weight-infants and may be associated with poor neurodevelopment. The growth velocity of preterm infants is increasing over decades, but the relationship between growth velocity, EUGR, and morbidities of preterm infants remains unknown. METHODS: A total of 263 infants born between 2012 and 2020, with birthweight <1500 g and gestational age of 24-33 weeks, were included. Birthweight and weight on day of evaluation point (corrected gestational age 36 weeks or discharged, whenever comes first) were converted to age-specific and gender-specific Z-scores and analyzed by multivariable modeling...

Neonates show considerable variation in growth that can be recognized through serial measurements of basic variables such as weight, length, and head circumference. If possible, measurement of subcutaneous and total body fat mass can also be useful. These biometric measurements at birth may be influenced by demographics, maternal and paternal anthropometrics, maternal metabolism, preconceptional nutritional status, and placental health. Subsequent growth may depend on optimal feeding, total caloric intake, total metabolic activity, genetic makeup, postnatal morbidities, medications, and environmental conditions...

BACKGROUND: Nutritional support of preterm infants remains a field of debate in the literature and clinical practice varies significantly. Adequate nutrition should promote growth and aim for optimal later neurodevelopment. However, it is often impaired by prematurity-associated morbidity and the physiologic immaturity of preterm infants. This study assessed the impact of energy and macronutrient provision on growth velocity and outcome and explored differences attributed to the heterogeneity of the preterm population...

Monitoring the growth of neonates in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) using growth charts constitutes an essential part of preterm infant care. Preterm infants are at increased risk for extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) due to increased energy needs and clinical complications. This retrospective study compares the prevalence of small for gestational age (SGA) at birth and EUGR at discharge in extremely and very preterm neonates hospitalized in the NICU of a tertiary hospital in Greece, using different growth curves, and it examines the associated nutritional and clinical factors...

Over the last few decades, there has been an ongoing debate over both the optimal feeding mode for very premature neonates (VPN) as well as what their optimal growth should be. Despite the American Academy of Pediatric declaring since 1997 that the growth of VPN should follow the trajectory of intrauterine fetal growth, differences of opinion persist, feeding policies keep changing, and the growth and development of VPN remains extremely variable not only between countries, but even between neighboring neonatal units...

Recent research has increased focus and interest in characterizing the physiology of the transition circulation using echocardiography. Critique of published normative neonatal echocardiography data among healthy term neonates has not been performed. We have performed a comprehensive literature review using the key terms: cardiac adaptation, hemodynamics, neonatal transition, term newborns. Studies were included if they had reported echocardiography indices of cardiovascular function in the presence of maternal diabetes, intrauterine growth restricted newborns and prematurity and had a comparison group of healthy term newborns within first seven postnatal days...

BACKGROUND: Routine monitoring of gastric residuals in preterm infants on tube feeds is a common practice in neonatal intensive care units used to guide initiation and advancement of enteral feeding. There is a paucity of consensus on whether to re-feed or discard the aspirated gastric residuals. While re-feeding gastric residuals may aid in digestion and promote gastrointestinal motility and maturation by replacing partially digested milk, gastrointestinal enzymes, hormones, and trophic substances, abnormal residuals may result in vomiting, necrotising enterocolitis, or sepsis...

BACKGROUND: Routine monitoring of gastric residual in preterm infants on gavage feeds is a common practice used to guide initiation and advancement of feeds. It is believed that an increase in or an altered gastric residual may be predictive of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). Withholding monitoring of gastric residual may take away the early indicator and thus may increase the risk of NEC. However, routine monitoring of gastric residual as a guide, in the absence of uniform standards, may lead to unnecessary delay in initiation and advancement of feeds and hence might result in a delay in establishing full enteral feeds...
