<h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate the effect of oral <i>Lactobacillus reuteri</i> (<i>L reuteri</i>) first on incidence and severity Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) second sepsis. <h3>Design</h3> Prospective randomised controlled study. <h3>Setting</h3> Tertiary neonatal intensive care unit. <h3>Patients interventions</h3> Preterm infants with a gestational age ≤32 weeks birth weight ≤1500 g were included (n=400). Infants in group given 100 million CFU/day (5 drops) lyophilised <i>L (DSM 17938)...
<h3>Objective</h3> To compare the effectiveness of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) and intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) as initial respiratory support within minimally invasive surfactant therapy (MIST) approach in preterm infants with distress syndrome. <h3>Design</h3> Prospective, randomised controlled study. <h3>Setting</h3> Tertiary neonatal intensive care unit. <h3>Patients interventions</h3> This study enrolled 200 a gestational age 26–32 weeks who...
To determine the effect of delivery type on macronutrient content colostral milk.The study was conducted at Zekai Tahir Burak Maternity Teaching Hospital. Colostral milk samples from term lactating mothers who gave birth by vaginal or cesarean (CD) were obtained 2nd postpartum day. Milk protein, fat, carbohydrate (CHO) and energy levels measured using a mid-infrared human analyzer.A total 204 recruited to study; 111 route 93 CD. Protein statistically lower in after CD compared delivered...
To evaluate the growth and neurodevelopment outcomes of very low-birth-weight (VLBW) preterm infants supplemented with oral probiotics for prevention necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).This prospective follow-up study was conducted in a cohort VLBW enrolled randomized controlled clinical trial to efficacy NEC. Growth included weight, length, head circumference. Cognitive neuromotor development were assessed by using Bayley Scales Infant Development II. Sensory neurological performance evaluated...
We prospectively evaluated the differences in clinical responses and short-term outcomes preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) treated poractant alfa or beractant. Premature RDS were randomized to beractant treatment between July 2008 June 2009. Patients followed until 40 weeks of corrected gestational age death. The fraction inspired oxygen (F<sc>io</sc> <sub>2</sub>) after surfactant treatment, need for repeat doses, duration support hospitalization groups. Sixty-one...
When the newborn brain is exposed to hypoxia, as in hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), it causes an inflammatory response. A wide variety of markers are therefore used diagnosis HIE.
The aim of this study was to determine whether there an association between platelet parameters and the presence pulmonary hemorrhage (PH) in very low birth weight infants. Fifty preterm infants who developed PH with gestational age ≤30 weeks ≤1500 g were analyzed retrospectively. matched for birthweight without PH, served as control group. Groups compared terms demographic, clinical characteristics parameters. Red cell distribution width ratio (RPR) mass also calculated. A total 150...
Oxidative damage is important in the pathogenesis of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). However, data on effect surfactant therapy oxidative stress vivo are limited. We aimed to evaluate oxidant/antioxidant status preterm infants with RDS via measurement total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and oxidant (TOS), determine balance assess association between TAC, TOS clinical outcomes patients.Sixty-nine were included. Blood samples for determining TAC collected before 48 h after treatment. levels...
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy orally administered Lactobacillus reuteri (L. reuteri) versus nystatin in prevention fungal colonization and invasive candidiasis very low birth weight infants.Methods: A prospective, randomized comparative conducted preterm infants with a gestational age ≤32 weeks ≤1500 g. Patients were into two groups, receive L. or nystatin. Skin stool cultures performed once week for blood infections. trial registered ClinicalTrials.gov under...
Objective To determine the effect of two different feeding strategies on time to achieve full enteral and incidence intolerance in preterm infants with birth weight ≤1250 g.Methods A prospective randomized trial (NCT02913677) conducted at a tertiary level neonatal intensive care unit. Preterm g were randomly allocated either prolonged minimal nutrition (MEN) which feed volumes not increased for five days or early advancement groups advanced by 20–25 ml/kg/d until 150 volume was achieved. The...
Ischemia/reperfusion-induced intestinal injury is mediated by reactive oxygen species and inflammatory mediators.This study was designed to evaluate whether all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) administration can attenuate analyze the antioxidant anti-inflammatory effects of ATRA in a neonatal rat model necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).Twenty-nine Wistar albino pups were randomly divided into 3 groups: group 1 = control, 2 NEC saline, treatment. induced hyperosmolar enteral formula feeding exposure...
Background: This study aimed to compare the effects of adjustable fortification (AF), targeted (TF), and standard (SF) methods on early growth very low birth weight infants. Materials Methods: Sixty infants <32 weeks gestational age weighing <1,500 g were selected. These exclusively fed with breast milk randomized into three groups: SF, AF, TF. SF consists adding a fixed amount fortifier maternal milk. Blood urea nitrogen levels are used adjust in AF. In TF, is analyzed fortified accordingly...
Rice bran oil is one of oryzanol source oils. Oryzanol an antioxidant compound that related to the absorption cholesterol, and used in hyperlipidemia treatment menopause problems. RBO extraction, purification its γ-oryzanol content have been carefully reviewed. The quality concentration depend on extraction process purification. In selecting method obtain highest content, addition comparing obtained it can also be done by kinetics parameters. Modeling according physical or empirical...
To determine total antioxidant capacity and oxidation status in fresh freeze stored (at -80°C) breast milk during the stages of lactation.Samples colostrum, transitional mature were collected from 44 healthy women at 3, 8 30 days after birth. The volume (6 ml) was divided two aliquot parts: 3 ml for analysis which done immediately extraction storage under freezing conditions -80°C months. oxidative stress assessed via determination status.Antioxidant decreased (p = 0.0001, p 0.028,...
Hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a common problem in preterm infants which often causes morbidities. Although PDA induces alterations various tissue perfusion, there scarce information about the effect of oral ibuprofen on hemodynamics regional tissues.To investigate, using near-infrared spectroscopy, renal and mesenteric oxygenation oxygen extraction with diagnosis hemodynamically PDA.Fifteen (gestational age <32 weeks) treated were monitored for spectroscopy -...
Objective To investigate the early neonatal outcomes of very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants discharged home from intensive care units (NICUs) in Turkey. Material and methods A prospective cohort study was performed between April 1, 2016 30, 2017. The included VLBW admitted to level III NICUs. Perinatal data all born with a birth weight ≤1500 g were collected for who survived. Results Data 69 NICUs obtained. mean gestational age 1137±245 29±2.4 weeks, respectively. During period, 78%...
