Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the neurodevelopment of infants with congenital gastrointestinal malformations at 2 years old and explore links between developmental delay and health history.
- It analyzed 118 infants who underwent surgery for various gastrointestinal issues, finding that 9% experienced developmental delay according to the Ages and Stages Questionnaire.
- Factors like earlier gestational age, extended invasive ventilation, and multiple hospitalizations were associated with developmental delays, while breastfeeding appeared to have a protective effect.
Article Synopsis
- In low- and middle-income countries, neonatal bacterial infections are primarily due to Enterobacterales and Staphylococcus aureus, which contribute significantly to mortality from antibiotic resistance.
- The study aims to gather existing data on the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria like 3GCRE, CRE, and MRSA in newborns, focusing on factors that influence colonization during the first three months of life.
- After reviewing over 3,000 articles, the research analyzed 67 studies, finding a pooled prevalence of 30.2% for 3GCRE colonization among neonates, highlighting a significant public health concern in these regions.
Article Synopsis
- Infants with severe epidermolysis bullosa (EB) often face dehydration and malnutrition, but their nutritional needs are not well studied.
- A study looked at 27 newborns with EB to assess their nutritional status and found many had low sodium levels and needed extra fluids and sodium.
- The results suggest that these infants require higher food and nutrient intake than usual to grow properly and stay healthy, especially during their first month of life.
Very preterm infants are at high risk of growth failure. Poor weight gain is a prominent risk factor for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and optimizing nutrition could potentially promote growth and reduce ROP. Most infants at risk of ROP need parenteral nutrition initially and studies of enhanced parenteral provision of lipids and amino acids have suggested a beneficial effect on ROP.

Retrospective analysis during the first month of life of recipient twins. Of the 480 newborns born during an 11-year period, 138 recipient twins with prenatal FSLC were classified into four groups: no hemodynamic impairment (NoHI, n = 102, 74%), isolated high blood pressure (HighBP, n = 18, 13%), right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO, n = 10, 7%), and cardiac failure (CF, n = 8, 6%).
