Association of hypertensive disorder of pregnancy with necrotizing enterocolitis in very preterm infants: A retrospective cohort study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) may affect fetal development and result in preterm delivery. Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a severe gastrointestinal emergency in very preterm infants (VPIs, gestational age less than 32 weeks). The relationship between maternal HDP and NEC is controversial. Objective To investigate the association between maternal HDP and NEC in VPIs.This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study based on the data from the Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN) which were collected between January 1, 2019 and December 31, 2021. Preterm infants born between 24+0 and 31+6 weeks of gestation were divided into HDP and no-HDP groups according to the 2015 Chinese guidelines for HDP. The primary outcome was the incidence of Bell's stage II or higher NEC. Secondary outcomes included mortality and spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP). Of 27,660 women were included in the study analysis, 5405 (19.5%) were HDP and 22256 (80.5%) were no-HDP. NEC occurred in 5.2% (283/5,404) among HDP mothers and 5.3% (1,191/22,256) among no-HDP mothers. No significant association was observed between HDP and Bell's stage II or higher NEC (aOR 0.87, 95% CI [0.72, 1.05]). However, even after adjustment, maternal HDP appeared to be protective for NEC requiring surgical intervention (aOR 0.60, 95% CI [0.43, 0.83]). There was no significant correlation between maternal HDP and neonatal mortality and SIP. Maternal HDP was not significantly associated with the incidence of Bell's stage II or higher NEC. However, it was associated with the lower rate of NEC requiring surgical intervention.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
