Metabolic bone disease in extremely preterm infants: incidence, risk factors, and outcomes from a structured bone health program

MBD is common in extremely preterm infants and is associated with growth failure and prolonged hospitalization. A 4-week PTH screen showed good discrimination for radiologic osteopenia (AUC 0.78), supporting its role within structured bone health care. As our findings are based on a biochemical definition, diagnostic thresholds require external validation.

Abstract

MBD is common in extremely preterm infants and is associated with growth failure and prolonged hospitalization. A 4-week PTH screen showed good discrimination for radiologic osteopenia (AUC 0.78), supporting its role within structured bone health care. As our findings are based on a biochemical definition, diagnostic thresholds require external validation.
