Is post-discharge nutrition the next challenge in neonatal care? This review explores a crucial but under-researched area. Limited evidence, big implications. Feedback always welcome! #NeoSky #NeonatalSky

We are using HC as surrogate of brain size in an ongoing DHA RCT: clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT062...

Risk Assessment of Cognitive Impairment at 2 Years of Age in Infants Born Extremely Preterm Using the INTERGROWTH-21st Growth Standards - PubMed ClinicalTrials.gov ID Generic Database: NCT00063063.

Fair point. A reliable surrogate short-term outcome of important endpoints, including BPD (the correlation btw length and lung size/function is stronger than btw weight and lung size- unpublished RCT data coming out soon, hopefully) and 2-year cognitive outcomes: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39168179/

Should length become the primary outcome of neonatal nutrition trials? The effects of nutritional interventions on length appear more long-lasting than those on weight and lean mass @camimartin.bsky.social @nicupodcast.bsky.social @neonatalresearch.bsky.social

Grateful for the opportunity to be part of the SSPR council and continue supporting research initiatives within our region! #NeoBlueSky

Our RCT combining early full enteral nutrition with early human milk fortification is now available online! The sustained effect on length suggests that this feeding practice is beneficial for very preterm infants #neonatalsky #neosky #neotwitter #neoebm

In this RCT, Alshaikh et al. compare outcomes between preterm neonates born between 30 0/7 and 33 6/7 weeks who received early exclusive enteral feeding versus those who received conventional feeding.

#274 - Understanding the Role of Fatty Acids in Neonatal Nutrition ft. Dr. Camilia Martin Hello friends 👋In this episode of The Incubator Podcast, hosts Ben and Daphna welcome Dr. Cami Martin, a renowned expert in neonatal nutrition. Dr. Martin shares her insights on the evolving landscape...

The Role of Early Enteral Protein Intake in Lean Mass Accretion The first two weeks after birth are a critical period for preterm infants, marked by rapid changes and nutritional challenges. In our latest study, "Association Between Enteral Protein Intake and Fat-...

Our observational study recently published in Neonatology @kargerpublishers.bsky.social suggests that optimizing enteral protein intake during the first two weeks could significantly influence fat-free mass accretion measured with ADP in very preterm infants. #neonatalnutrition #neosky

If our secondary analysis of the trial makes it to PAS next year, IMPACT could become more impactful #NeoSky #NeonatalSky

New RCT coming to the UK in 2025!

COLLABORATE will determine clinical efficacy, effect size, and safety of widely used enteral feeds in reducing surgical NEC, mortality, and cognitive impairment in extremely preterm babies.
