Gastric emptying of preterm infants
Gastric emptying rate of pasteurised donor human milk (PDHM) is more similar to mothers’ own milk (MOM) than infant formula
Final gastric residual volumes for PDHM and MOM are similar
Final gastric residual volumes for PDHM and MOM at 12–22%
Human milk casein and lactose impact gastric emptying
Gastric emptying does not differ by infant sex
Fortification of MOM and PDHM slows gastric emptying
Supine position of infant slows gastric emptying
MOM and PDHM produce similar curding patterns
Body composition of preterm infants
Increased fat and total energy intakes are related to increasing fat mass
Increasing protein intake when considered with carbohydrate intake is related to increasing fat-free mass
Enteral volumes are positively associated with adipose to muscle ratio
Timing of fortification, carbohydrate intake and protein energy ratio of intakes moderate ratio of the adipose to muscle tissue accretion
