  • Child

Study population: The study population is a retrospective cohort of neonates hospitalized in the Department of Neonatology at the First Hospital of Jilin University between December 2019 and December 2024. All included neonates were admitted within the first 7 days of life and were diagnosed with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, defined as having a serum total bilirubin level exceeding the phototherapy threshold for their respective postnatal age and gestational age. This cohort will be analyzed to investigate the risk factors associated with the development of adverse digestive system outcomes.

Who may be able to join

  • Neonates admitted to the Department of Neonatology within 7 days after birth.
  • Clinical diagnosis of neonatal jaundice, with a measured serum total bilirubin level exceeding the phototherapy threshold for hyperbilirubinemia.
  • Availability of complete medical records and serum bilirubin test results.
  • Hospitalized at the First Hospital of Jilin University between December 2019 and December 2024.

Who cannot join

  • Major congenital anomalies (e.g., severe gastrointestinal malformations, complex congenital heart disease).
  • Missing essential data for primary outcome or key exposure variables.
  • Length of hospital stay < 24 hours.

About this study

Official title: Analysis of Factors Associated With Adverse Digestive System Outcomes in Neonates With Jaundice

Objective To explore the factors associated with adverse digestive system outcomes in neonates with jaundice.

Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of hospitalized neonates admitted to the Department of Neonatology, the First Hospital of Jilin University, within 7 days after birth from December 2019 to December 2024. Included neonates underwent serum total bilirubin testing, with post-birth serum total bilirubin levels exceeding the high-risk neonatal phototherapy threshold. Propensity score matching and inverse probability weighting were used to group the jaundiced neonates according to the presence or absence of adverse digestive system outcomes. Factors including basic demographic information of the neonates and their mothers, relevant laboratory examinations, and therapeutic interventions were collected. Traditional logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models were applied to analyze and predict risk factors for adverse digestive system outcomes in jaundiced neonates.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Observation (Retrospective Cohort Study)Other

    This is an observational study. The "intervention" described here refers to the standard diagnostic and therapeutic measures already administered in routine clinical practice for neonatal jaundice. The study retrospectively observes the association between these routine practices (e.g., phototherapy, exchange transfusion, intravenous immunoglobulin administration) and the infants' digestive system outcomes. The research protocol did not actively assign or modify any treatments.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Adverse Digestive System Outcomes

    The presence of any clinically diagnosed adverse digestive outcome during hospitalization, including but not limited to feeding intolerance, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), cholestasis, or gastrointestinal bleeding.

    Measured: From admission until hospital discharge or 28 days of life, whichever comes first.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Digestive, run by The First Hospital of Jilin University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse Digestive System Outcomes (time frame: From admission until hospital discharge or 28 days of life, whichever comes first.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Mar 2026.
