Summary

This study follows 200 premature babies who had a serious gut infection called necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) to see how it affects their nutrition and growth by age 5. Researchers will check for problems like food allergies, poor growth, feeding difficulties, and other digestive issues. The goal is to better understand long-term risks so doctors can catch and treat complications early.
