The effects of two extremes of dietary intake on protein accretion in preterm infants.
S B Roberts,Alan Lucas +1 more
TL;DR: It is speculated that premature infants fed banked drip breast milk or a preterm formula have an abnormally low protein concentration in their lean body mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does Diet in Preterm Infants Influence Clinical Outcome
TL;DR: Data from a large randomized multicentre outcome study of preterm nutrition are used to demonstrate how the wealth of previous and current 'physiological' information cannot be used satisfactorily to predict desirable clinical outcome responses to early diet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does it matter how we feed premature babies
TL;DR: Data from this Unit's multicentre outcome trials on nearly 1000 preterm infants, randomly assigned to early diet, are used to demonstrate that whilst diet influences many aspects of the infants ‘physiology’ in the short term, such physiological responses have limited value in predicting clinical outcome.
