Swan et al. reported no difference in post-feeding morbidity risk observed between calves fed a plasma-derived CR compared with calves fed individual maternal colostrum (i.e. non-pooled colostrum) [ 22].
Infant thymus size, anthropometry, feeding practice and morbidity data were collected at regular interval.
Furthermore, other parameters of feeding tolerance, infectious morbidity, and short-term outcome are evaluated (Table 1).
The report also investigated the prevalence of anaemia, infant and young child feeding practices, child morbidity due to diarrhea, cough and fever, as well as access to health services and improved water, sanitation and hygiene facilities.
This double-blind randomised controlled trial is designed to investigate the effect of glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition on feeding tolerance, infectious morbidity and short-term outcome in VLBW infants.
In conclusion, this double-blind randomised controlled trial aims to determine the effect of glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition on feeding tolerance, infectious morbidity and short-term outcome in VLBW infants.
Low birth weight infants < 1800 g and under 32 weeks gestational age were followed up in the NPU over a 3 week period; feeding data and morbidity data was collected in order to determine if there were any adverse events associated with donor breastmilk.
Data are being collected on household characteristics, maternal diet and mental health, anthropometry, infant feeding practices, morbidity and compliance.
Critically ill patients frequently develop gastrointestinal (GI) motility disorders resulting in feeding intolerance with increased morbidity and mortality.
During the infant's hospital stay morbidity and feeding data was collected.
The following levels of determination were considered: (1) socioeconomic characteristics, (2) access to public services, (3) maternal characteristics before pregnancy, (4) maternal characteristics during pregnancy, (5) child characteristics at birth, (6) infant feeding practices, and (7) morbidity indicators.
