    Abstract Background: Probiotics have been shown to reduce the risk of mortality and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates. The probiotic species with the maximal benefits in neonates from low- and middle-income countries are unknown.
    Objective: To identify the strain of probiotics with the maximum benefit in preventing neonatal mortality, sepsis, and NEC using the Bayesian network meta-analysis.
    Search methods: We searched Medline via PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL). We also hand-searched reference lists of previous systematic reviews to identify eligible studies.
    Selection criteria: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from LMICs comparing enteral supplementation of one or more probiotics with another probiotic species or placebo were included.
    Data collection and analysis: Two authors screened the studies, extracted the data, and examined the risk of bias using the Cochrane risk of bias 2 (RoB 2) tools. Bayesian network meta-analysis was performed using the "BUGSnet" package in R and RStudio (version 1.4.1103). The confidence in the findings was assessed using the Confidence in Network Meta-analysis (CINeMA) web application.
    Results: Twenty-nine RCTs enrolling 4,906 neonates and evaluating 24 probiotics were included. Only 11 (38%) studies had a low risk of bias. All the studies compared the probiotics with a placebo; none had a head-to-head comparison of different probiotic species. Also, only one study each had evaluated most probiotic regimens. When compared to placebo, the combination of
    Conclusion: Given the low to very low certainty of evidence for the efficacy of the two probiotics found to reduce mortality and necrotizing enterocolitis, no firm conclusions can be made on the optimal probiotics for use in preterm neonates in low- and middle-income countries.

    Abstract Objective: To determine the incidence of repeat-hospitalization amongst neonates with gestation <32 wk or birth weight <1500 g within 6 mo of birth.
    Methods: All live births with gestation <32 wk or birth weight <1500 g born at a level-III NICU were prospectively enrolled and followed up through routine visits, multimedia and telephonically, fortnightly for re-hospitalization details till 6 mo of postnatal age. Main outcome measures were incidence, causes and risk factors for repeat-hospitalization.
    Results: Of the 131 neonates enrolled, incidence and incidence density of repeat-hospitalization were 16% (95% CI 10.2-23.4) and 3.6 per 100 person-months, respectively. The most common causes for repeat-hospitalizations were pneumonia (n = 8; 29.6%), sepsis (n = 5, 18.5%), gastroenteritis (n = 3, 11.1%) and severe anemia (n = 2, 7.4%). Majority of repeat-hospitalizations (92.6%; 95% CI 74.1-98.5) occurred within 2 mo of discharge. The median hospital stay during repeat-hospitalizations was 4 d (IQR 1-21). On multivariate analysis, lower socioeconomic status was significantly associated with repeat-hospitalization (aOR 5.9, 1.3-23). Death after discharge occurred in 3 (2.3%) infants and were due to sudden infant death syndrome, complex cyanotic heart disease and pneumonia with multiple co-morbidities (one each). All deaths occurred at home.
    Conclusions: Nearly one-sixth of very low birth weight (VLBW) or very preterm infants required repeat-hospitalization after discharge, primarily within 2 mo of discharge. Infections, especially pneumonia, being the most common reason. A comprehensive follow-up package of post-discharge care for prevention of morbidities and timely hospital care for ongoing morbidities is required for optimal long-term survival of these infants.
