Background. Protein-calorie deficiency is common multifactorial medical condition in infants. Nutrition therapy of protein-calorie deficiency in premature infants with special medical food is not always quite effective. It can be associated with residual manifestations of overlapping perinatal pathology.Clinical case description. Extremely premature child with severe protein-calorie deficiency in the late period with combined perinatal pathology (perinatal central nervous system damage and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) was administrated with therapeutic highly nutritious (high-protein/high-energy) milk formula according to individual plan. The positive dynamics in clinical manifestations of the main and associated diseases was noted on nutrition therapy.Conclusion. High-calorie and protein-enriched therapeutic formula can effectively correct protein-calorie deficiency in premature infants with associated perinatal pathology in the recovery period (disfunction compensation).

Anterior Mandible

<p>Neonatal teeth is a rare disorder of tooth eruption, arising in the oral cavity, usually in the anterior mandible, in the first month of life. Its etiology is unknown. This condition can cause breastfeeding difficulties, besides aspiration or swallowing of the teeth. We describe the case of a premature infant in the second day of life presented with gingival edema, redness and discrete swelling in the region of the mandibular central incisors. Ten days later, two small teeth with hypermobility were detected. Extraction of those teeth was performed. With this clinical case we intend to show the rarity of this entity, especially in premature infants, the possible association with various syndromes and the need for a multifactorial approach to the treatment decision (extraction / conservative treatment).</p>

Major Point

In Reply.— The major point raised by the letter of Rigo and Senterre is that the plasma threonine concentration should decrease with increasing gestational age in the groups with high threonine intake (&gt;1,500 µmol/kg/day). These are the infants receiving a milk formula containing 3.0 g/100 mL of protein in one of our first studies.1 In our recent study on term infants2 the threonine intake in the formula-fed infants was &lt;1,500 µmol/kg/day. Plasma threonine values in relation to gestational age from the first study are shown in the Table.

The Relationship

One hundred four healthy premature infants, of birth weight 1,000 to 1,800 gm, were fed one of five feedings: (1) human milk; (2) human milk plus 13 meq/l of sodium chloride; (3) human milk plus 13 meq/l of sodium chloride and 18 meq/l of potassium chloride; (4) a half-skimmed cows milk formula; and (5) a partially-skimmed vegetable oil, cows milk formula. The infants fed any of the three human milk formulas gained weight at a slower rate than the infants fed either of the two cows milk formulas. Infants whose diets were changed from unmodified human milk to the half-skimmed cows milk gained large amounts of weight, and at times were visibly edematous. Infants whose diets were changed from the human milks with added sodium chloride, to the half-skimmed cows milk, gained lesser amounts of weight and did not become edematous. The infants fed the two cows milk diets gained similar amounts of weight, although one diet provided 6.5 gm/kg/day, the other 3.1 gm/kg/day of protein.

Growth Development

Seventy-four full-term and 42 premature infants were studied from birth to 9 months of age in relation to intake of iron. All were maintained on a vitamin-supplemented milk diet, and approximately a third had iron supplementation of 12 mg in 32 fluid ounces of milk intake. Significant differences between groups as regards growth, development or number of illnesses were not apparent. The infants fed supplemental iron had higher values for hemoglobin, hematocrit and serum iron, after 3 to 3½ months of age, and these values continued to be significantly higher throughout the 9-month period of observation. Among the infants who received no iron supplement, 2 full-term and 16 premature infants developed evidence of anemia, which responded quickly when the infants were changed to the iron-fortified formula. No signs of toxicity or difficulty were noted in the iron-supplemented group, nor of lack of acceptability by the infants of any formula used in the study.

The purpose of this study was to use 31P-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to examine changes in wrist flexor muscle metabolism during the transitions from rest to steady-state exercise (on-transient) and back to rest (off-transient). Five healthy young males (mean age 25 +/- 2 yr) performed a series of square-wave exercise tests, each consisting of 5 min of moderate-intensity work followed by a 5-min recovery period. The subjects repeated this protocol six times, and each individual's results were pooled before analysis. ATP and intracellular pH did not change significantly during exercise or recovery. Phosphocreatine (PCr) declined progressively at the onset of exercise, reaching a plateau after approximately 2 min. A reciprocal increase in Pi occurred during the onset of exercise. During the recovery period PCr was resynthesized, whereas Pi returned to resting levels. The data were plotted as a function of time and fit with both first- and second-order exponential growth or decay models; however, the second-order model did not significantly improve the fit of the data. Time constants for the first-order model of the on- and off-transient responses for both PCr and Pi were approximately 30 s. These values are nearly identical to the time constants for oxygen consumption during submaximal exercise that have been reported previously by several authors. The results of this study show that the metabolism of muscle PCr during steady-state exercise and recovery can be accurately described by a monoexponential model and, further, suggest that a first-order proportionality exists between metabolic substrate utilization and oxygen consumption.

Atp Regeneration

Creatine kinase (CK) forms a small family of isoenzymes playing an important role in maintaining the concentration of ATP and ADP in muscle cells. To delineate the impact of a lack of CK activity, we studied contractile performance during a single maximal tetanic contraction and during 12 repeated tetanic contractions of intact dorsal flexors of CK knockout (CK−/−) mice. To investigate the effect on ATP regeneration, muscular high-energy phosphate content was determined at rest, immediately after the contraction series, and after a 60-s recovery period. Maximal torque of the dorsal flexors was significantly lower in CK−/− mice than in wild-type animals, i.e., 23.7 ± 5.1 and 33.3 ± 6.8 mN · m · g−1 wet wt, respectively. Lower muscle ATP (20.1 ± 1.4 in CK−/− vs. 28.0 ± 2.1 μmol/g dry wt in controls) and higher IMP (1.2 ± 0.5 in CK−/− vs. 0.3 ± 0.1 μmol/g dry wt in controls) levels at the onset of contraction may contribute to the declined contractility in CK−/− mice. In contrast to wild-type muscles, ATP levels could not be maintained during the series of 12 tetanic contractions of dorsal flexors of CK−/− mice and dropped to 15.5 ± 2.4 μmol/g dry wt. The significant increase in tissue IMP (2.4 ± 1.1 μmol/g dry wt) content after the contraction series indicates that ATP regeneration through adenylate kinase was not capable of fully compensating for the lack of CK. ATP regeneration via the adenylate kinase pathway is a likely cause of reduced basal adenine nucleotide levels in CK−/− mice.
