Summary

This study looked at 42 infants who had surgery for a rare birth defect called esophageal atresia type III. Researchers gave the babies a sugary drink to see how often they developed dumping syndrome, a condition causing rapid blood sugar changes. The goal was to find out how common this problem is at 3.5 months of age.
