Urinary intestinal fatty acid-binding protein concentration predicts extent of disease in necrotizing enterocolitis
Urinary intestinal fatty acid-binding protein concentration predicts extent of disease in necrotizing enterocolitis
In this pilot study, urinary i-FABP was associated with extensive disease in infants with NEC requiring surgery. Further work, in a larger number of patients, is required to investigate the applicability of urinary i-FABP as a marker of intestinal damage and as an adjunct to current indications for surgical intervention in infants with NEC

Abstract
In this pilot study, urinary i-FABP was associated with extensive disease in infants with NEC requiring surgery. Further work, in a larger number of patients, is required to investigate the applicability of urinary i-FABP as a marker of intestinal damage and as an adjunct to current indications for surgical intervention in infants with NEC
