Allergen Sensitivity in Newborns with Bowel Inflammation
Part of Digestive system, Immune system & allergy, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether newborns with necrotizing enterocolitis (a serious bowel infection) develop allergies differently than healthy newborns. Researchers will compare allergen sensitivity between babies who had this condition and those who didn't, to better understand how the illness affects the immune system.

This study looks at the long-term health of very preterm infants who had a serious gut condition called necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) or a bowel perforation between 2008 and 2013. Researchers will compare their development to similar infants without these conditions to understand long-term outcomes.
This study looks at how having a very early baby (before 30 weeks) and a serious bowel problem called NEC affects your family's quality of life and finances. Parents will share their experiences through surveys.
This study looks at how the intestines grow and develop in both premature and full-term babies. It involves collecting small tissue samples during a baby's already-planned surgery or scope procedure to better understand normal development and digestive diseases.
This study looks at newborns (up to 28 days old) who have urgent stomach or intestinal problems needing immediate treatment. Researchers want to understand what types of emergencies happen most often and how babies fare after treatment.
This study interviews surgeons who treat infants with a serious bowel condition called necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). Researchers want to understand how surgeons make decisions and how babies do afterward.
This study looks at how the immune system develops in the intestines of newborns, including those born early or with a blocked intestine (atresia). It may help doctors understand inflammation and improve care for sick babies.
