Supplementation with long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids to extremely preterm infants associates with development of the intestinal microbiota
Abstract Supplementation with arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to extremely preterm infants reduces the risk of severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The main aim of this study was to explore the involvement of AA:DHA supplementation in the developing gut microbiome, and its possible contribution to the ROP-protective effect. Secondly, additional covariates for microbiome maturation were evaluated.
Group B Streptococcus antibiotics treatment during pregnancy and the risk of four neurodevelopmental outcomes in Swedish children
Abstract Recent studies have suggested an association between prenatal and early life antibiotics with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes in children. As antibiotics during pregnancy are commonly prescribed, our aim was to estimate the association the groups of antibiotics prescribed for GBS during pregnancy the risk of neurodevelopmental outcomes in children. This population-based cohort study included all live births in Sweden from 2006 to 2016 (n = 1,066,777).
Limited evidence that early life growth predicts well-being in adolescence
Abstract There is a well-established link between growth and future health, but it is uncertain whether early life growth and well-being in adolescence are associated. We hypothesized that individuals with slower growth during infancy or childhood had a lower degree of well-being at age 18 years. This population-based study examined early life growth in relation to adolescent well-being in the GrowUp1974&1990Gothenburg cohorts (n = 4319).
Early enteral nutrition practices and their association with growth and necrotising enterocolitis in extremely preterm infants—A dual national cohort study
Abstract In Sweden, the incidence of necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in extremely preterm infants has increased from 6 to 10% over a decade. We examined whether changes in enteral nutrition during the first 2 weeks were associated with growth and development of NEC. The EXPRESS (2004–2007) and EXPRESS 2 (2014–2016) cohorts included infants <27 gestational weeks. NEC diagnoses were validated. Nutritional data were retrieved from four of the six healthcare regions (n = 815).
Corrigendum to effect of human milk-based fortification in extremely preterm infants fed exclusively with breast milk: a randomised controlled trial
We acknowledge that the description of the eligibility and inclusion criteria in our article “Effect of human milk-based fortification in extremely preterm infants fed exclusively with breast milk: a randomised controlled trial” published in this journal1 may have been open to misinterpretation. There has been a question regarding the inclusion of infants before 3 days of age. We therefore appreciate the opportunity to clarify this.

Factors associated with the increased incidence of necrotising enterocolitis in extremely preterm infants in Sweden between two population-based national cohorts (2004-2007 vs 2014-2016) | ADC Fetal & Neonatal Edition
Discussion The present study explored possible factors underlying the increase in NEC incidence in Sweden between 2004–2007 and 2014–2016.
Maternal, fetal and perinatal factors associated with necrotizing enterocolitis in Sweden. A national case-control study
To analyze associations of maternal, fetal, gestational, and perinatal factors with necrotizing enterocolitis in a matched case-control study based on routinely collected, nationwide register data. All infants born in 1987 through 2009 with a diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis in any of the Swedish national health care registers were identified. For each case up to 6 controls, matched for birth year and gestational age, were selected.
