Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pediatric gastroenterology has witnessed remarkable progress over the past decades, driven by advancements in diagnostic tools, therapeutic strategies, and a deeper understanding of the gut–brain axis and microbiome. These developments have significantly improved outcomes for children with gastrointestinal, hepatic, and nutritional disorders.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest breakthroughs and emerging trends in pediatric gastroenterology, providing a platform for researchers and clinicians to share innovative findings that address the unique challenges of diagnosing and treating gastrointestinal disorders in children.
We seek contributions that will increase the degree of understanding of the physiopathological mechanisms involved in various pediatric digestive disorders and will allow the launch of new therapeutic directions.
