El desarrollo de enterocolitis necrosante, con la consecuente perforación intestinal, es frecuente en los recién nacidos pretérmino. El tratamiento estándar de la perforación intestinal es quirúrgico. Sin embargo, se sugiere que la inserción de un drenaje en el abdomen puede ser efectivo para tratar esta afección. Se resumen los resultados de una revisión sistemática Cochrane que compara la efectividad del drenaje peritoneal con la de la laparotomía en neonatos con enterocolitis necrosante perforada. Necrotizing enterocolitis is common in preterm newborns, with consequent intestinal perforation. The standard treatment for intestinal perforation is surgery. However, it is suggested that inserting a drain into the abdomen may be effective in treating this condition. This document summarizes the results of a Cochrane systematic review comparing the effectiveness of peritoneal drainage with laparotomy in neonates with perforated necrotizing enterocolitis.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an intestinal inflammatory and necrotic disease seen in premature infants, and remains the leading cause of death resulted from gastrointestinal diseases in premature infants. The specific pathogenesis of NEC is still unclear. In recent years, a lot of studies have reported that Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) plays a key role in the pathogenesis of NEC.

The use of Santulli enterostomy (SE) for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) has been limited to a small number of studies involving a small number of patients and no control group. Our study aimed to compare the clinical safety and efficacy of Santulli enterostomy with those of single- or double-lumen enterostomy for neonatal NEC through a retrospective cohort study. One hundred ten patients who met the criteria were divided into an SE group (64 patients) and a conventional enterostomy (CE) group (46 patients).

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease, with its own clinical, radiological and histopathological characteristics, which mainly affects premature newborns, resulting from a combination of factors that include immaturity, inflammation and lung injury, in addition to therapy with mechanical ventilation and exposure to high concentrations of oxygen. However, even with advances in care for critically ill newborns, BPD continues to be a challenge for the care team and family members. This has been identified as one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality due to prematurity, and can have significant impacts on the quality of life of the affected patients.

Purpose: This study aims to elucidate the roles of the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and enterocyte apoptosis in necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) pathogenesis and investigate the impact of vitamin A intervention on these factors.

Methods: We employed an NEC mouse model and administered vitamin A treatment. Retinol levels in mouse blood were quantified using ELISA.

Bovine colostrum (BC), the first milk secreted by mammals after birth, is a trending alternative source for supplementing infants and children, offering benefits for gut and immune health. Its rich components, such as proteins, immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, and glycans, are used to fortify diets and support development. Preterm development is crucial, especially in the maturation of essential systems, and from 2010 to 2020, approximately 15% of all premature births occurred at less than 32 weeks of gestation worldwide.
