Risk factors for unfavourable postoperative outcome in patients with Crohn's disease undergoing right hemicolectomy or ileocaecal resection. An international audit by ESCP and S-ECCO
Aim Patient- and disease-related factors, as well asoperation technique, all have the potential to impact onpostoperative outcome in Crohn’s disease. The availableevidence is based on small series and often displays con-?icting results. The aim was to investigate the effect ofpreoperative and intra-operative risk factors on 30-daypostoperative outcome in patients undergoing surgeryfor Crohn’s disease.Method This was an international prospective snapshotaudit including consecutive patients undergoing righthemicolectomy or ileocaecal resection.
Nutritional intake influences zinc levels in preterm newborns: an observational study
(1) Background: Zinc is a key element for protein synthesis in preterm newborns. Early aggressive nutrition, promoting protein synthesis, may increase zinc consumption; (2) Methods: We performed a prospective observational study, to assess the relationship between early macronutrients intake and serum zinc levels, in preterm newborns with Gestational Age (GA) of 24-35 weeks, consecutively observed in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). (3) Results: We enrolled 130 newborns (GA 31.5 ± 2.8).
Early protein intake influences neonatal brain measurements in preterms: an observational study
Introduction: To limit extrauterine growth restriction, recent guidelines on nutrition of preterm neonates recommended high protein intake since the first day of life (DOL). The impact of this nutritional strategy on the brain is still controversial. We aimed to evaluate the effects of protein intake on early cerebral growth in very low birth weight newborns. Materials and Methods: We performed serial cranial ultrasound (cUS) scans at 3-7 DOL and at 28 DOL in very low birth weight newborns consecutively observed in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Pediatric chronic intestinal failure in italy: Report from the 2016 survey on behalf of Italian society for gastroenterology, hepatology and nutrition (SIGENP)
Background: Intestinal failure (IF) is the reduction in functioning gut mass below the minimal level necessary for adequate digestion and absorption of nutrients and fluids for weight maintenance in adults or for growth in children. There is a paucity of epidemiologic data on pediatric IF. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence, incidence, regional distribution and underlying diagnosis of pediatric chronic IF (CIF) requiring home parenteral nutrition (HPN) in Italy.
