Active stimulation increased transit in >50% versus only 25% with sham (p = 0.04). Seventeen children also had UGD. In children with STC and either normal upper GI motility (NUGM) and UGD, NTS improved slightly after 1 month (57 vs. 60%; p = 0.9) and more after 2 months (88 vs. 40%; p = 0.07). However, mean transit rate significantly increased with NUGM, but not UGD (5.0 ± 0.2: 3.6 ± 0.6, p < 0.01). Conclusion: Transcutaneous electrical stimulation was beneficial for STC, with response weakly associated with UGD. As measured by NTS, STC children with NUGM responded slightly more, but with significantly greater increased transit compared to those with UGD. Higher numbers are needed to determine if the difference is important.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:17:38 AEDT ]]> Features and outcomes of neonatal neuroblastoma https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12443 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:17:35 AEDT ]]>
