Abstract
OBJECTIVE Determine association between time to regain birthweight and 2-year neurodevelopment among extremely preterm (EP) newborns. STUDY DESIGN Secondary analysis of the Preterm Erythropoietin Neuroprotection Trial evaluating time to regain birthweight, time from birth to weight nadir, time from nadir to regain birthweight, and cumulative weight loss with 2-year corrected Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development 3rd edition. RESULTS Among n = 654 EP neonates, those with shorter nadir-to-regain had lower cognitive scores (≤1 day versus ≥8 days: -5.0 points, [CI -9.5, -0.6]) and lower motor scores (≤1 day versus ≥8 days: -4.6 points [CI -9.2, -0.03]) in adjusted stepwise forward regression modeling. Increasingly cumulative weight loss was associated with lower cognitive scores (≤-50 percent-days: -5.6, [CI -9.4, -1.8]), motor scores (≤-50 percent-days: -4.2, [CI -8.2, -0.2]); and language scores (≤-50 percent-days: -6.0, [CI -10.1, -1.9]). CONCLUSION Faster nadir-to-regain and excessive cumulative weight loss are associated with adverse 2-year neurodevelopmental outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION PENUT Trial Registration: NCT01378273. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01378273 . CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION This study is a post-hoc secondary analysis of pre-existing data from the PENUT Trial (NCT #01378273).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the epidemiology, risk factors, and timing of spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP) among infants born at 22-24 weeks' gestational age (GA). STUDY DESIGN Observational cohort study among infants born at 22-24 weeks' GA in 446 neonatal intensive care units. RESULTS We identified 9712 infants, of whom 379 (3.9%) developed SIP. SIP incidence increased with decreasing GA (P < 0.001). Antenatal magnesium (odds ratio (OR) 1.42; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.09-1.85), antenatal indomethacin (OR 1.40; 95% CI, 1.06-1.85), postnatal indomethacin (OR 1.61; 95% CI, 1.23-2.11), and postnatal hydrocortisone exposure (OR 2.02; 95% CI 1.50-2.73) were associated with SIP. Infants who lost 15-20% (OR 1.77; 95% CI, 1.28-2.44) or >20% (OR 2.04; 95% CI, 1.46-2.85) of birth weight had higher odds of SIP than infants with weight loss <10%. CONCLUSIONS Antenatal magnesium exposure, antenatal indomethacin exposure, postnatal hydrocortisone exposure, postnatal indomethacin exposure, and weight loss ≥15% were associated with SIP.

Nutrients 2023; 15:3556. [PMID: 37630744 PMCID: PMC10458304 DOI: 10.3390/nu15163556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional support of preterm infants remains a field of debate in the literature and clinical practice varies significantly. Adequate nutrition should promote growth and aim for optimal later neurodevelopment. However, it is often impaired by prematurity-associated morbidity and the physiologic immaturity of preterm infants. This study assessed the impact of energy and macronutrient provision on growth velocity and outcome and explored differences attributed to the heterogeneity of the preterm population. METHODS We retrospectively collected clinical and nutritional data from neonates hospitalized in two separate Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs). Estimated energy and protein balance were calculated based on the ESPGHAN guidelines and their association with the growth outcome was explored. Growth assessment was based on somatometry Delta (Δ) z-scores at discharge. RESULTS In total, 174 neonates were included in the study. By day 14, most preterm infants were exclusively enterally fed, whereas there were infants in the <28 and 28-31+6 subgroups fed exclusively parenterally. Energy balance was positive for all gestational age (GA) subgroups except for those born <28 weeks. Protein balance was consistently positive for extremely premature but negative for late preterms. Cumulative substrates provisions were strong predictors of a positive energy or protein balance in the <34 weeks GA preterms on days 14 (ROC analyses, p < 0.001) and 7 (p < 0.05). A higher GA (p = 0.013) and enteral nutrition (p = 0.005) were additional predictors of a positive energy balance. All GA subgroups had a negative Δ z-score of weight at discharge. In the <34 GA subcohorts, a positive protein balance on day 14 (p = 0.009) and a short time to regain birth weight (exp(B) 3.1 (p = 0.004)) were independently associated with a positive Δ z-score of weight at discharge. CONCLUSIONS Early achievement of a positive energy and protein balance, based on the ESPGHAN guidelines, is crucial to ensure optimal postnatal growth and prevent extrauterine growth restriction, a relatively common occurrence in preterm infants.
