Here, we studied the diagnostic and prognostic values of abdominal ultrasound combined with urinary intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) for NEC. Ninety-eight NEC neonates were divided into a suspected NEC group (n=57) and a confirmed NEC group (n=41). They were further divided into an internal medicine treatment group (n=54) and an operation group (n=44) according to disease progression. The influencing factors were explored by multivariate analysis. The diagnostic values of abdominal ultrasound and I-FABP alone or in combination were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Further, 1-year survival rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Premature birth, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, neonatal septicemia, maternal gestational diabetes mellitus, non-exclusive breastfeeding, non-prophylactic application of probiotics and I-FABP >6.25 ng/mL were risk factors for NEC (P Page(s): 493-498ISSN: 0975-1009 (Online); 0019-5189 (Print)Appears in Collections:IJEB Vol.61(07) [July 2023]
