Factors influencing gastrointestinal tract and microbiota immune interaction in preterm infants.

abstract：:Vagal responsivity to orogastric stimulation is necessary for gastrointestinal function and may reflect autonomic regulation. Our study evaluated vagal responsivity during gavage feeding as an index of preterm clinical status. Vagal and behavioral responsivity of 26 preterm infants during gavage feeding was measured. ...
