Abstract
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases in neonatal intensive care units, characterized by rapid progression and a high mortality rate. Local intestinal ischemia and hypoxia are significant contributors to NEC. Feeding intolerance (FI), which refers to a range of gastrointestinal manifestations arising from the inability to tolerate enteral nutrition, is one of the most common clinical issues in neonates, and preventing and treating FI is crucial for improving neonatal survival rates. Near-infrared spectroscopy is a clinical tool that can be used at the bedside to monitor regional oxygen saturation. It is non-invasive, reliable, and sustainable, and its feasibility and safety in assessing intestinal blood circulation have been validated. Early identification of intestinal ischemia and differentiation of FI from precursor symptoms of NEC, as well as predicting the occurrence of NEC, are extremely important for reducing intestinal injury and adverse long-term outcomes. In recent years, there has been new research progress related to the monitoring of intestinal tissue oxygen saturation and cerebral oxygen saturation for the early identification of FI and precursor symptoms of NEC, and this article provides a review of these developments.

Abstract
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the diseases in neonates, with a high morbidity and mortality rate, especially in preterm infants. This review aimed to briefly introduce the latest epidemiology, susceptibility factors, and clinical diagnosis and presentation of NEC. We also organized new prevention strategies by risk factors according to different pathogeneses and then discussed new treatment methods based on Bell's staging and complications, and the classification of mild to high severity based on clinical and imaging manifestations. Such a generalization will help clinicians and researchers to gain a deeper understanding of the disease and to conduct more targeted classification, grading prevention, and exploration. We focused on prevention and treatment of the early and suspected stages of NEC, including the discovery of novel biomarkers and drugs to control disease progression. At the same time, we discussed its clinical application, future development, and shortcomings.
