Parenteral nutrition (PN) is essential to support premature infants' growth and varies with enteral (EN) advancement rates. Data on PN duration's impact are limited. The aim of this multicenter observational study was determine the effect early duration body composition at term corrected gestational age (CGA) in very low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants.VLBW infants exposed first week life significantly different EN regimens were divided into two groups basis duration. Infants a birth weight (BW)...

In preterm infants, longitudinal growth patterns have a stronger association with clinical outcomes than cross-sectional metrics. For qualitative growth, one-time body composition measurement at near term is common, and here we explore the potential use of novel estimated metric (adjusted fat-free mass deficit) using birth anthropometrics. Key Points
