Variation in Early Pediatric Intensive Care Management Strategies and Duration of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation for Acute Viral Bronchiolitis in the United Kingdom: A Retrospective Multicenter Cohort Study.

Objectives: Management of mechanically ventilated patients with bronchiolitis is not standardized and duration of mechanical ventilation has been shown to vary widely between centers. The aim of this study was to examine practice in a large number of U.K.

A scoping review: urinary markers of metabolic maturation in infants with CHD and the relationship to growth.

Background: Growth failure in infants born with CHD is a persistent problem, even in those provided with adequate nutrition.

Objective: To summarise the published data describing the change in urinary metabolites during metabolic maturation in infants with CHD and identify pathways amenable to therapeutic intervention.

Design: Scoping review.

A Scoping Review: Urinary Markers of Metabolic Maturation in Preterm Infants and Future Interventions to Improve Growth.

Growth failure in infants born preterm is a significant issue, increasing the risk of poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes and metabolic syndrome later in life. During the first 1000 days of life biological systems mature rapidly involving developmental programming, cellular senescence, and metabolic maturation, regulating normal growth and development. However, little is known about metabolic maturation in infants born preterm and the relationship with growth.

A systematic review of the definitions and prevalence of feeding intolerance in preterm infants.

Background & Aims: Feeding intolerance (FI) is a common phenomenon experienced in preterm infants in neonatal intensive care units, as well as being a focus of many research studies into feeding methods, particularly in relation to comorbidities. There is no widely accepted definition of FI. This systematic review aimed to explore the range of definitions used for FI and provide an estimate of the prevalence amongst preterm infants.
