Surgical gastrointestinal anomalies including diaphragmatic hernia: Does type of anomaly affect neurodevelopmental outcome?
Regardless of type of malformation, short-term neurodevelopmental outcome of children with gastrointestinal anomalies including diaphragmatic hernia falls within normal range, suggesting that neither being born with a CA nor its type is per se a risk factor for neurodevelopmental delay.
There was a large amount of variation in insulin resistance, as measured by an adapting multiplier, both across the population and within patients. In the setting of tight glucose control measures of glucose control (median blood glucose and percent in range) do not differentiate between patients who lived and died while measures of insulin resistance (median insulin dose and multiplier) do, suggesting that the insulin resistance is a better predictor of outcome.
