ABSTRACT The number of surviving children born prematurely has increased substantially during the last 2 decades. major goal enteral nutrient supply to these infants is achieve growth similar foetal coupled with satisfactory functional development. accumulation knowledge since previous guideline on nutrition preterm from Committee Nutrition European Society Paediatric Gastroenterology and in 1987 made a new necessary. Thus, an ad hoc expert panel was convened by Gastroenterology, Hepatology,...
ABSTRACT More than 10,000 preterm infants have participated in randomised controlled trials on probiotics worldwide, suggesting that general could reduce rates of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC), sepsis, and mortality. Answers to relevant clinical questions as which strain use, at what dosage, how long supplement are, however, not available. On the other hand, an increasing number commercial products containing are available from sometimes suboptimal quality. Also, a large units around world...
ABSTRACT This Comment by the Committee on Nutrition of European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and aims to provide a summary role nutrition‐related factors obesity prevention in children ages 2 18 years. emphasizes that dietary interventions should be incorporated into multidisciplinary strategy prevention. No single nutrient has been unequivocally associated with development obesity. Methodological limitations study design complex nature must taken account when...
ABSTRACT Inorganic arsenic intake is likely to affect long‐term health. High concentrations are found in some rice‐based foods and drinks widely used infants young children. In order reduce exposure, we recommend avoidance of rice for For all the products, strict regulation should be enforced regarding content. Moreover, children consume a balanced diet including variety grains as carbohydrate sources. Although protein–based infant formulas an option with cows' milk protein allergy,...
The recent advisory issued by the United States Food and Drug Administration, cautioning against routine administration of probiotics in preterm neonates, has sparked a lively debate within scientific community. This commentary presents perspective from members Special Interest Group on Gut Microbiota Modifications European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology Nutrition (ESPGHAN) other authors who contributed to ESPGHAN position paper infants, as well representatives...
To investigate whether a mixture of prebiotic non-digestible oligosaccharides (GosFos; referring to galacto- and fructo-oligosaccharides) would improve feeding tolerance in preterm infants on full enteral formula feeding. We hypothesized that GosFos would: (1) reduce stool viscosity (2) accelerate gastrointestinal transport.In placebo-controlled double-blind trial 20 nutrition (gestational age 27 (24-31) weeks, postnatal 42 (11-84) days, weight at study entry 1570 (1080-2300) g were randomly...
Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB) due to physiologically low vitamin plasma concentrations is a serious risk for newborn and young infants can be largely prevented by adequate supplementation. The aim of this position paper define the condition, describe prevalence, discuss current prophylaxis practices outcomes, provide recommendations prevention VKDB in healthy term newborns infants. All should receive date, dose, mode administration documented. Parental refusal after information...
Abstract In Western countries, vegetarian diets are associated with lower intakes of energy, saturated fatty acids and animal protein higher fibre phytochemicals, compared to omnivorous diets. Whether the corresponding health benefits in vegetarians outweigh risks nutrient deficiencies has not been fully clarified. It should be noted that often have a socioeconomic status, follow more health-conscious lifestyle physical activity, refrain from smoking than non-vegetarians. The nutritional...
(1) Background: The aim of the present paper was to study fetal and infant creatine (Cr) supply improve nutrition neuroprotection in term especially preterm infants. primary outcomes were placental Cr flux at end pregnancy time course human milk (HM) Cr. (2) Methods: estimation based on umbilical arterial venous cord blood 10 infants after elective caesarian section. HM Cr, creatinine (Crn), macronutrients measured longitudinally mothers across first 6 months breastfeeding. (3) Results: At...
Feeding intolerance is common in very low birth weight (VLBW; <1500 g) infants. Hydrolyzed protein preterm infant formula (HPF) has been shown to accelerate the gastrointestinal transit of formula. The aim this study was investigate whether HPF improves early feeding tolerance compared with standard (SPF). We hypothesized that would enteral advancement.Primary outcome time from initiation milk feeds until full (150 mL/kg weight/d) were achieved infants who received <10% human (HM) exclude HM...

Pureed complementary feeding products packed in squeezable plastic pouches, usually with a spout and screw cap, have been increasingly marketed. The Committee on Nutrition recommends that infants young children should not suck pureed or liquid foods from baby food pouches. Complementary be offered spoon fed as finger foods. Infants given the opportunity to get know variety of textures including pieces foods, supported by responsive between child their parents caregivers. marketed pouches...
<h3>Importance</h3> Feeding intolerance is a common condition among preterm infants owing to immaturity of the gastrointestinal tract. Enteral insulin appears promote intestinal maturation. The concentration in human milk declines rapidly post partum and absent formula; therefore, recombinant (rh) for enteral administration as supplement formula may reduce feeding infants. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess efficacy safety 2 different dosages rh both formula. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3>...
