Delayed vs Immediate Umbilical Cord Clamping in Preterm Birth
This trial tests whether delaying the clamping of the umbilical cord after birth helps preterm babies more than clamping right away.

Early warning system for neonatal NEC to help predict risk in very preterm babies
A multicenter observational study in preterm newborns to see if combining genetic data and immune markers with clinical info can better predict necrotizing enterocolitis than clinical data alone.
