Epidemiology of necrotizing enterocolitis
Clin Perinatol.
1994 Jun.
Abstract
The descriptive epidemiology of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is presented. Areas addressed include incidence, race, sex, age of onset, mortality rates, and endemic versus epidemic disease. Both descriptive and case control studies are reviewed to uncover clues relevant to the causes, pathogenesis, and prevention of NEC.
