Critically ill neonates are at high risk for acute kidney injury (AKI). Renal supportive therapy (RST) can be an important tool for supporting critically ill neonates with AKI, particularly in cases of oliguria and fluid overload. There are few reports of RST for management of oligo-anuric AKI in the extremely low-birth-weight infant weighing <1000 g. We report successful provision of peritoneal dialysis (PD) to an 830-g neonate with oligo-anuric AKI through adaptation of a standard pediatric acute PD catheter.

Introduction Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of preventable childhood blindness. We investigated the association of early postnatal low-dose intravenous hydrocortisone used for the prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) with ROP-outcome among extremely preterm infants in a Swedish cohort. Methods This retrospective cohort study included extremely preterm infants born before 28 weeks of gestational age (GA).

Sulfasalazine is a non-specific immunomodulator with haemolytic anaemia as a known side effect that crosses the placenta. We present a preterm neonate with cardiac arrhythmia secondary to hyperkalaemia in the setting of maternal sulfasalazine therapy. A preterm infant was born to a mother taking hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine, aspirin and enoxaparin throughout pregnancy.

Background: Preterm infants are at risk for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and sepsis. Optimal strategies of preterm feeding to achieve full enteral feeding early with minimal duration of central lines without increasing the risk of NEC remain uncertain. We aimed to evaluate if new enteral feeding strategies reflecting early initiation, fortification, and more rapid advancement is beneficial without increasing the risk of NEC.

Surviving prematurity: retrospective longitudinal study of multisystem consequences in preterm-born individuals from infancy to adolescence.

January 2025

Department of Anatomy, Histology and Anthropology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Vilnius University, Ciurlionio Str. 21, Vilnius, 03101, Lithuania.

Background: Prematurity is linked to diverse and significant health outcomes, but a comprehensive understanding of its long-term multisystem impacts remains limited.

Methods: Retrospective longitudinal cohort study on 417 preterm children born between 2000 and 2015 explores the incidence, dynamics, and interrelationships of health conditions from infancy to adolescence. Data on 1818 diagnoses, categorised by birth weight (BW) and gestational age (GA) and documented according to ICD-10, were analysed using non-parametric tests and negative binomial regression models.
