Abstract

Objective To observe the difference on clinical characteristics between small for gestational age(SGA) and appropriate for gestational age(AGA) infants with necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC),so as to provide evidence for the prevention of NEC. Methods A total of 236 cases with NEC(stage Ⅱand Ⅲ) hospitalized from January 1st,2014 to December 31th,2018 were enrolled in this study,and were divided into SGA group(55 cases) and AGA group(181 cases).The differences on clinical characteristics between the two groups were analyzed. Results 1) The proportions of cesarean section(83.6%vs.59.7%),maternal hypertention during pregnancy(56.4% vs.24.9%) and fetal distress(32.7% vs.11.6%)in SGA group were significantly higher than those in AGA group(P<0.05).2) The proportions of clinical stage Ⅲ(41.8% vs.26.5%) and poor prognosis(abandonment and death)(25.5% vs.13.3%) of AGA were significantly higher than those of AGA,and the hospitalization duration[25(16,23) vs.17(12,24)] of SGA was significantly longer than that of AGA(P<0.05).There were no significant differences on the age of start feeding,the onset of NEC,the ratio of RBC transfusion within 72 hours before the onset of NEC,the levels of WBC,CRP and PLT,the positive rate of etiological examination(stool culture and blood culture) and the number of cases of surgical treatment between SGA and AGA groups(P>0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for the poor prognosis of SGA included clinical stage Ⅲ of NEC(OR=15.211,95%CI:2.998-26.107),sepsis after diagnosis of NEC(OR=10.440,95%CI:1.627-19.377),shock(OR=12.256,95%CI:2.896-21.058) and intestinal perforation(OR=6.305,95%CI:1.473-8.240).Meanwhile,risk factors for the poor prognosis of AGA were clinical stage Ⅲof NEC(OR=13.352,95%CI:1.866-18.540),sepsis after diagnosis of NEC(OR=9.662,95%CI:2.508-16.004) and shock(OR=11.254,95%CI:2.183-17.005). Conclusions NEC in SGA infants is more serious than that in AGA,and the prognosis is poorer in SGA infants.Thus,complications after NEC should be treated actively in order to reduce the mortality.
