Breastfeeding is recommended as the best source of nutrition in first months life and observational studies have associated exclusive breastfeeding with decreased weight gain a protective effect against obesity childhood. The objective this study was to describe characteristics cohort exclusively breastfed obese infants determine factors that may lead unusual gain.Infants seen between 2003 2015 who were showed excessive year followed focus on features mother, child, feeding patterns presence...

There is little data on the experience of managing pediatric Intestinal Failure (IF) in Latin America. This study aimed to identify and describe current organization practices IF teams America Caribbean. An online survey was sent inquire about existence that managed children home parenteral nutrition (HPN). Our questionnaire based a previously published European with similar goal. Twenty-four centers eight countries completed survey, representing total number 316 HPN. The median (PN) at per...
To determine the frequency of maternal-fetal hemorrhage at or above 1 microliter maternal whole blood.Seventy-three mothers whose red blood cells bore an Rh antigen (Rh D, c, E) that was absent on their newborns were identified and a new cytological method, Kleihauerimmunogold-silver-staining technique, applied neonates to detect quantify cells. Stringent precautions taken avoid contaminations neonatal samples by adult cells.Maternal present in 3 newborns, 4% (95% Cl: 1-11%), estimated...

Abstract Background Short bowel syndrome is considered a low prevalence disease. The scant information available about intestinal failure in Latin America was the driving force to expand this registry. Methods A prospective, multicenter observational registry created for patients with chronic short at specialized centers America. Demographics, clinical characteristics, nutrition assessment, parenteral management, rehabilitation, related complications, outcome, and survival were analyzed....
Introduction.Craniopharyngiomas are histologically benign malformations located between the pituitary and hypothalamus that may affect key hormone secretion for endocrine regulation satiety modulation.Although this is a relatively disease, combination of severe hypothalamic obesity associated comorbidities results in reduced quality life.Objective.To assess nutritional status patients after craniopharyngioma surgery.Population Methods.Patients younger than 21 years old at time study who...
BACKGROUND: To describe factors related to the infant, mother, and breastmilk composition that may be associated with excessive weight gain in a cohort of exclusively breastfed infants younger than 6 months life gain, compare these findings data from group normal-weight infants.METHODS: 36 seen at two health-care centers between July 2016 2017 were enrolled study. The clinical features infants, their mothers, macronutrient breast milk evaluated. We classified according velocity birth into an...
Malnutrition is common in newborn patients after cardiac surgery, because of the low metabolic reserves, increased energy expenditure caused by injury, and reduced or delayed nutritional support they receive, as well their inability to metabolize nutrients administered. It important achieve appropriate nutrition; a better response surgery has significant impact on length stay, wound healing, susceptibility infections surgical outcome. This guideline intended establish practical foundation...
