متن کاملVitamins and functional nutrients for extremely low birth weight infants
While the need for appropriate post natalgrowth provides many studies focused on macronutrients in the nutrition of preterm infants, the concern for the quality of development of micro premies increases the interest in micronutrients, vitamins and trace elements. Moreover, the ongoing challenge to avoid serious complications of extreme prematurity requires investigations on functional nutrients...
متن کاملGrowth and neurodevelopmental outcomes after early low-dose hydrocortisone treatment in extremely low birth weight infants.
BACKGROUND Low cortisol concentrations in premature infants have been correlated with increased severity of illness, hypotension, mortality, and development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. A total of 360 mechanically ventilated infants with a birth weight of 500 to 999 g were enrolled in a randomized, multicenter trial of prophylaxis of early adrenal insufficiency to prevent bronchopulmonary dys...
متن کاملNeurodevelopmental outcome of extremely low birth weight infants at 24 months corrected age: a comparison between Griffiths and Bayley Scales
