متن کاملRole of Intestinal Microflora on Necrotizing Enterocolitis in Preterm Infants
Despite overall decreasedmortality andmorbidity in preterm very low-birth-weight (VLBW:<1,500 g) infants over the past decades, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a devastating emergency intestinal disease in preterm VLBW infants, remains 5 to 6% and even increase despite much effort on peri-postnatal care.1 More worrisome, approximately 20 to 30% of VLBW infants with NECwill die2 and the remaini...
