  • Abdominal Pain

    The population studied was matched with healthy control without history of recurrent abdominal pain, enrolled among pediatricians practicing primary health care. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Hyperalgesia

    […] the available data fail to provide insight into the exact triggers of infantile colic, these do allow for the hypothesis that certain infants are predisposed to dietary protein intolerance and disturbed gut motility, such as visceral hypersensitivity/ hyperalgesia [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Alternatively, strategies to improve gut microflora and reduce hyperperistalsis and hyperalgesia may be more appropriate. These will be considered in turn below. [jfhc.co.uk]

Primary end-points were crying time at mid-treatment, at the end of treatment and at a 1-month follow-up. A 30-min mean difference (MD) in crying time between acupuncture and control was predefined as a clinically important difference. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Neither concomitant treatments nor side effects were reported. [doi.org]

Prognosis The prognosis is excellent. Most infants with colic recover spontaneously by 3-4 months of age. [patient.info]

The etiology of infantile colic has yet to be definitively elucidated, but there is increasing research to support its relationship to migraine. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The etiology of infantile colic remains unclear. Many risk factors assessed but no one is certain. We invastigate ethiology, risk factors and treatment methods of infantile colic. Key words: Infantile colic, ethiology, treatment [scopemed.org]

Results: At present, infantile colic is an area of clinical research both in terms of etiology and treatment. Various etiological theories have been proposed but none of them are strong enough to completely describe the condition. [indianpediatrics.net]

The term is derived from “kolikos”,the Greek word for colon Various etiologies have been proposed, with gastrointestinal etiologies being a leading thought Classic definitions of colic: Wessel criteria : episodes of crying 3 hours/day, 3 days/week, for [nuemblog.com]

At that time little evidence regarding epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnostic work-up, treatment strategies and follow-up was available. Consequently the criteria for the clinical entities were more experience than evidence based. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology Baby colic is very common, occurring in round 10-30% of infants[1]. It affects males and females equally. Breast-fed and formula-fed infants are equally affected. [patient.info]

However, the pathophysiological clues indicate that infantile colic is a shared pathology between the mother and the baby, especially in the case of breastfeeding mothers. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology has been described in various ways in different studies and yet not conclusive. [banglajol.info]

The pathophysiology of this clinical phenotype is poorly understood, but it is a cause of increasing interest in gluten-free diets in the general population. [dx.doi.org]

Meanwhile, L. reuteri DSM 17938 has been suggested, for the first time, to be possibly effective in preventing infantile colic. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
