ABSTRACT
Extrauterine growth restriction(EUGR), caused by perinatal diseases, neonatal morbidities and inadequate nutrition, refers to preterm growth failure in which an anthropometric measure is below the target according to growth charts at a certain point of time after birth.EUGR is prevalent among very preterm and very low birth weight infants, potentially causing the impairment on physical growth, neurodevelopment and cardiometabolic system.Nowadays, many researchers challenge the definition of EUGR and raise arguments about the optimal growth pattern, the growth assessment tools and nutrition strategies of preterm newborns.This article reviews the research progress on extrauterine growth restriction in preterm infants.
