Over time in ELBW, what happens to TBW, ECF, ICF?
TBW, ECF, and NaCl are DECREASING (TE-creasing)
at 3 mo, ICF = ECF
At 24 weeks, ECF 65, ICF 25
Deficiency: alopecia, scaling dermatitis, seborrhea
Biotin deficiency
Ascorbic acid deficiency:
wound healing poor, bleeding gums, associated with transient tyrosinemia
Retinol function and deficiency
pulmonary epithelial growth and cellular differentiation, may be associated with CLD; deficiency = photophobia, conjunctivitis, abnormal epiphyseal bone formation and tooth enamel, scaling, FTT
Riboflavin vs Thiamine
Riboflavin: FTT, photophobia, blurred vision, dermatitis, mucositis, glutamic aciduria type 1
Thiamine: beriberi; fatigue, irritability, constipation, cardiac failure; PDH complex deficiency and MSUD
When does first glomeruli develop and when is nephrogenesis complete? How many nephrons at that time
Pronephros: 2-3 weeks
First glomeruli at 9 weeks
Nephrogenesis completes at 34-36 weeks (1 million nephrons)
Urine production nat 10-12 weeks
90% of amniotic fluid is urine at 20 weeksI
In infants, kidneys only receive _____% of CO
10%
Copper is stored primarily in _____. and Begins to accumulate in _____ trimester
Liver; 3third trimester
Menkes disease
X-linked recessive; inability of cellular absorption of copper. Difficult to dx bc lack of normal values, large variation in copper/ceruloplasmin values
Hypochromic anemia, NEUTROPENIA, osteoporosis
What is the one thing cow’s milk has more than BM?
amino acids. Otherwise BM has more long chain PUFA, carnitine, cholesterol, docosahexaenoic acid
Preterm vs term milk?
Preterm milk has more protein, NaCl, PUFA, but LOWER lactose
Most variable component of human milk is ______
Triglycerides! depends on GA and maternal diet. Cholesterol is constant and independent of maternal diet
Protein should provide ____% of kcal to prevent catabolic state
7-15%
Selenium vs chromium vs zinc functions
selenium: glutathione peroxidase, antioxidant
Chromium: carb/lipid metabolism (deficiency not described)
Zinc: bone development
Preterm vs term formula differences
Preterm formula has higher protein, sodium, but lower lactose compared to term formula
Preterm formula is ISO-osmolar unless > 24 kcal
Absorptive functions of jejunum and ileum
Jejunum: protein, fat, carbs, iron, CA, Mg
Ileum: B12, releases neurologically important hormones, absorbs bile salts, fats, FAT-SOLUBLE VITAMINS, zinc
Foremilk vs hindmilk
Foremilk has higher lactose but lower fat. Same protein.
What is Lowe syndrome
X-linked recessive, Golgi apparatus. Oculocerebrorenal syndrome
Why do preterm infants have higher serum Cr in first few weeks of life compared to term?
Preterm has greater reabsorption of filtered Cr in leaky renal tubules and lower Cr clearance bc impaired glomeruli filtration
Describe renal embryology
Pronephros: 2-3 weeks, regress by 4 weeks
Mesonephros –> mesonephric tubule and duct
Mesonephric duct –> ureteric bud –> collecting ducts –> nephrons
Renal genesis occurs when ureteric bud FAILS to develop
If ureteric bud forms but no interaction with undifferentiated mesoderm –> renal dysplasia
When is vesicoamniotic shunt indicated?
2nd trimester (20 weeks)
Most common cause of hydronephrosis?
no specific anomaly
Prerenal vs renal tubular injury (urine osm, urine Na, FeNa)
Prerenal: urine ism high, urine Na low, FeNa < 2%
Renal tubular injury: urine ism low, urine Na high, FeNa > 2%
What is the role of placental lactogen?
Growth and development of fetus by coordinating metabolic and nutrient supply from pregnant woman to the developing fetus
