BACKGROUND: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and intracranial hemorrhage are severe emergencies in the neonatal period. The two do not appear to be correlated. However, our report suggests that parenchymal brain hemorrhage in full-term newborns may put patients at risk for NEC by altering intestinal function through the brain-gut axis.
METHODS: We present a case of spontaneous parenchymal cerebral hemorrhage in a full-term newborn who developed early-stage NEC on Day 15.
CONCLUSIONS: It is possible to consider brain parenchymal hemorrhage as a risk factor for the appearance of NEC. Clinicians should be highly cautious about NEC in infants who have experienced parenchymal hemorrhage. This article is the first to discuss the relationship between parenchymal hemorrhage and NEC in full-term newborns.

With the continuous innovation of digital technology in my country at this stage and the design of medical imaging technology systems, the depth and breadth of the development of digital medical imaging technology have been greatly expanded. This paper focus on application of medical images in breast milk smearing of the umbilical nursing for full-term newborns.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of breast milk application in umbilical nursing of full-term newborns.
METHODS: 596 full-term newborns were divided into three groups: Experimental Group, Control Group A and Control Group B, Experimental Group A treated with breast milk, control group a treated with 75% alcohol, and control group B treated with 37 ~ 42°C warm boiled water, the time of umbilical cord abscission, infection and other complications were compared among the three groups. The process was recorded by images.
RESULTS: According to the images, compared with the Control Group A and B, the experimental group significantly shortened the time of umbilical cord shedding, the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: The application of breast milk in umbilical region of full-term neonates can reduce the time of umbilical cord abscission without increasing the incidence of Omphalitis.
