Necrotizing Enterocolitis
Abstract
NECROTIZING enterocolitis is the most common acquired gastrointestinal emergency in the neonatal-intensive-care unit.1 , 2 Its initial clinical manifestations may be indistinguishable from those of sepsis neonatorum. Necrotizing enterocolitis is suspected when gastrointestinal signs and symptoms predominate. These intestinal disturbances include abdominal distention and tenderness, retention of feedings with ileus, hematochezia, peritonitis, and bowel perforation. Pneumatosis intestinalis (intramural gas) and intrahepatic venous gas are the roentgenologic hallmarks required to confirm the diagnosis.In the United States, between 2000 and 4000 new-born infants per year have necrotizing enterocolitis.3 , 4 Although the disorder was recognized as early as the 19th century, many investigators have suggested . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
