Summary
Abnormal liver function or cholestasis is the result of multiple factors, include low birth
weight, smaller than gestational age, preterm birth, infection, lipid emulsion (LE) in
parenteral nutrition (PN), insufficient enteral nutrition (EN) etc. Most are inevitable, but
the LEs in PN can be selected. So the investigators compare two LEs, and want to see if the
SMOF LE can improve hepatic index in preterm infants.
