“…However, this incidence is not based on general population, but on the number of admissions; therefore, it is reasonable to consider that this incidence is higher than that reported by previous studies (1:5800–1:24000). [1,2] Other possible underlying reasons include different races and referral bias, as our neonatal center is 1 of the biggest territory referral site within China. The incidence of a delivered newborn to be transferred into a neonatal department after birth is around 3% to 5% per year in China.…”

Once the diagnosis is confirmed, the first-line management is dietary modification, which ranges from aggressive fasting with total parenteral nutrition to median chain triglyceride (MCT)-enriched formula, and eventually normal feeding.…”
