“…We found higher percentages of prematurity among our younger age group (0-12 months). Earlier studies have shown that feeding difficulties are more prevalent in young children born prematurely (Pados et al, 2021), including our recent study which found more preterm infants among children with a PFD diagnosis compared with nonpreterm controls (Galai et al, 2022). However, the effect of age at feeding disorder presentation among preterm infants had not been previously clarified.…”

“…Factors associated with the child, the caregiver, and the feeding environment can adversely affect the acquisition of feeding skills and ultimately contribute to and maintain PFD (Berlin et al., 2011 ; Burklow et al., 1998 ). We had recently shown that low socioeconomic status (SES), absence of breastfeeding, and low birth weight (BW) were significantly more frequent in children with PFD (Galai et al., 2022 ). However, factors associated with age of presentation of feeding disorder were not assessed in details.…”

AimUnderstanding the association between pediatric feeding disorder (PFD) and age of presentation is limited. We aimed to investigate factors associated with PFD among different age groups.MethodsRetrospective analysis of medical records of infants and toddlers diagnosed with PFD, according to the World Health Organization‐based definition. We compared children aged 1–12 months to those aged 13–72 months.ResultsIncluded were 253 children with PFD (median [interquartile range] age 16.4 [9.5–33] months at diagnosis, 56% boys). Significantly more children in the younger age group were girls (52.6% vs. 34.4%, respectively, p = .03) and preterm (25% vs. 14%, p = .03). They had more hospitalizations (34% vs. 23%, p = .03) and needed more prescription medications (36% vs. 17%, p < .01). Additionally, disturbances in oral intake were primarily linked to feeding skills dysfunction in the younger group and nutritional dysfunction in the older group (39.6% vs. 23.7% and 55% vs. 38%, respectively, p = .02).ConclusionsInfants under 1 year old with PFD represent a distinct patient group with unique characteristics and outcomes. The age of presentation plays a significant role in children with PFD, necessitating tailored treatment strategies.

“…Estudos realizados em diferentes regiões do mundo mostram que a queixa de "não comer" está entre as principais queixas das famílias e presentes, não apenas nos consultórios de pediatras, como também na clínica de especialistas, como gastroenterologistas e fonoaudiólogos. Diferentes levantamentos científicos mostram que o problema acomete de 8% a 50% das crianças, dependendo dos critérios diagnósticos utilizados, independentemente de idade, sexo, etnia e condição econômica (Junqueira et al, 215;Galai et al, 2022).…”

To investigate factors associated with pediatric feeding disorders (PFD) among children of parents that reported to have had feeding disorders during their own childhood compared to children with PFD with no history of parental PFD. MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the medical records of children diagnosed with PFD according to the recent WHO-based de nition. Demographic and clinical characteristics of children with PFD with a parental history of PFD were compared to those of children with a PFD with no history of parental PFD. ResultsIncluded were 231 children with PFD (median [interquartile range] age 10 (5.5-29) months at diagnosis, 58% boys) of whom 133 children had parents without PFD and 98 children had parents with PFD.Unexpectedly, children of parents without PFD had a higher rate of low birth weight (28% vs. 19%, respectively, p = 0.007), more delivery complications (10% vs. 2%, p = 0.006), more hospitalizations (33% vs. 17%, p = 0.004), more prescription medications (27% vs. 18%, p = 0.05), and a higher percent of gastrostomy tube use (6% vs. 0, p = 0.02). Moreover, more parents with PFD had an academic background compared with parents without PFD (72% vs. 59%, p = 0.05). There were no signi cant group differences in sex, history of breastfeeding, parental marital status, or type of the child's feeding disorder. ConclusionsPFD among children with a parental history of PFD comprise a distinct group of patients with unique characteristics and outcomes. Since parental feeding history may explain their child's PFD in highly differing ways, treatment should be family-based and multidisciplinary. What is knownPediatric feeding disorder (PFD) is relatively common and its prevalence is increasing.Late parental eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating) may impact their children's feeding and eating patterns.
