Evaluation of Some Blood Biomarkers as Predictors of Neonatal Necrotizing Enterocolitis
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Serum γ-Glutamyl transferase (GGT), Total serum bilirubin (TSB), Serum calcium concentration (Ca2+), Peripheral blood neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) for Necrotising Enterocolitis. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
To assess the value of peripheral blood neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), serum levels of γ-Glutamyl transferase (GGT), total serum bilirubin and serum calcium (Ca2+) concentrations for early diagnosis and prediction of NEC severity and if found significant, scoring will be done according to their levels in different Bell's stages.

Timeline
Interventions
GGT, Ca2+, NLR and TSB are serum markers which had been studied for early detection and prediction of severity of NEC.
