Abstract
The microbiome in neonates is affected by many factors such as mode of birth and feeding pattern, and homeostasis or disorder of microbiome is associated with various neonatal diseases. Preterm infants have a gestational age of <37 weeks at birth, with immature development and different colonization of bacteria from full-term infants. The research on the characteristics of microbiome and their association with diseases in preterm infants can provide new ideas for the treatment of neonatal diseases. This article reviews the characteristics of intrauterine microbiome, dermal microbiome, oral microbiome, stomach microbiome, intestinal microbiome, and environmental microbiome and their association with common diseases in preterm infants.
