Gastroschisis for the Gastroenterologist: Updates on Epidemiology, Management, and Outcomes
Gastroschisis is a common congenital abdominal wall defect, likely influenced by environmental factors in utero, with increasing prevalence in the United States. Early detection of gastroschisis in utero has become the standard with improved prenatal care and screening. There are multiple surgical management techniques, though sutureless closure is being used more frequently. Postoperative feeding difficulty is common and requires vigilance for complications, such as necrotizing enterocolitis. Infants with simple gastroschisis are expected to have eventual catch-up growth and normal development, while those with complex ga...

Management of Abdominal Wall Defects
Congenital abdominal wall defects vary from abdominal wall hernias to severe congenital structural anomalies that include gastroschisis, omphalocele, and prune belly syndrome. The conditions often carry various associated anomalies and require multidisciplinary treatment approaches. Complex surgical reconstructive techniques are frequently required and prenatal, perioperative, and long-term follow-up is critical to ensuring the best possible outcomes.

Detection rates of a national fetal anomaly screening programme: a national cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: The performance of the FA scan is above the expectations set in 2010 for most conditions. For the remaining conditions, the majority of fetuses and babies are detected prior to the FA scan.PMID:36054171 | DOI:10.1111/1471-0528.17287 (Source: BJOG : An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology)

Counting gross fetal movement using a fetal movement acceleration measurement recorder in two fetuses with gastroschisis
In conclusion, both fetuses moved as much as normal fetuses, which suggested that normal fetal movement could indicate reassuring status also in fetuses with malformation when they have normal neurological developments. (Source: Clinical Case Reports)

Comparison of three risk stratification scores in gastroschisis neonates: gastroschisis prognostic score, gastroschisis risk stratification index and complex gastroschisis
ConclusionThere are three easily obtainable risk stratification scores for outcome prediction in gastroschisis patients, however, their predictive ability did not have a statistical difference in the present study. The Gastroschisis risk stratification index seemed to perform moderately well in mortality prediction. (Source: Pediatric Surgery International)

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 9027: European Epidemiological Patterns of Cannabis- and Substance-Related Body Wall Congenital Anomalies: Geospatiotemporal and Causal Inferential Study
Conclusion: The data confirm the close relationship of the BWCARs with the metrics of CCE, fulfill the quantitative criteria of causal inference, and underscore the salience of the public health impacts of cannabinoid teratogenicity. Of major concern is the rising CCE impacting exponential cannabinoid genotoxic dose-response relationships. CCE should be carefully restricted to protect the food chain, the genome, and the epigenome of coming generations. (Source: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health)

Predictors of length of stay for simple gastroschisis: analysis of ACS NSQIP-P database
ConclusionPrematurity and birth weight are significant predictors of length of stay in simple gastroschisis patients. Prenatal counseling should continue to be one of the main factors to improve the outcomes for patients with gastroschisis.Type of study Retrospective cohort study.Level of evidence Level IV.
