Our most recent analysis of masked RCT data links early HM fortification to milder forms of BPD. 🔗Read our brief report today. Anyone clicking on the following link before October 02 will be taken to the final version:

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

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endpoints, including BPD (the correlation btw length and lung size/function is stronger than btw weight and lung size- unpublished RCT data coming out soon, hopefully) and 2-year cognitive outcomes: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39168179/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

A single-site trial assesses the impact of early (days 4–7) vs. delayed (days 10–14) bovine-derived human milk fortification in preterm infants. buff.ly/9G6Mw0x

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

Secondary analysis of PENUT trial led by Katie Strobel examines the association between maternal and post-natal antibiotic exposure in the first week of life with NEC and growth failure among extremely preterm infants. #neosky #EBNEOalerts #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.

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
