Probiotics May Cut Severe Bowel Disease in Premature Infants (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Premature infants who receive probiotics may have a reduced risk of developing necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and dying, according to a large Swedish study that adds to evidence supporting the use of live microorganisms in this population. The findings come as US neonatologists continue to navigate conflicting evidence and regulatory concerns surrounding probiotics in the NICU. “The use of probiotics early in life can prevent NEC, as these beneficial bacteria favorably alter the community and p
Fall Allergy Season Becoming a Moving Target (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For patients who suffer from fall allergies, ragweed season has traditionally followed a predictable schedule. Symptoms typically begin in late summer, peak around September, and ease after the first frost. But that timeline is becoming less reliable. Edwin Kim, MD, division chief of pediatric allergy at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine in Chapel Hill, said he is now seeing ragweed allergy weeks earlier than the traditional September start. "Classically, we've told folks, 'Oh

The associations between cognitive changes and earlier onset of the biological stage are consistent with previous research. But the new study adds data from longitudinal MRI, showing that timing was associated with brain changes decades later, said Riley Bov
For Everyday Shoulder Pain, Less Treatment Is Often More (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A patient arrives at the office of Lauren Simon, MD, MPH, expecting to receive MRI for their newly developed shoulder pain. Instead, Simon reaches for a pen and begins taking a history. There is no scan to order, procedure to schedule, or structural issue to fix — evidence shows that new shoulder pain rarely requires imaging or aggressive intervention. “In the absence of trauma or red flags, I explain to patients that imaging is not indicated at this time,” said Simon, a professor of family medi
