Effect plot of the fat mass index SDS for male and female infants over time. Linear mixed-effects model with effect plots of predictions (lines) and 95% CIs (bands) for fat mass index SDS. A: When taking the median gestational age and AUC of PN while receiving no human milk at the time of measurement, the fat mass index SDS increases with increasing age for both male and female infants, but for male infants, the fat mass index SDS is higher than for female infants. B: When taking the median gestational age and AUC of PN while receiving human milk at the time of measurement, the fat mass index SDS increases with increasing age for both male and female infants, but for male infants, the fat mass index SDS is higher than for female infants. PN, parenteral nutrition; SDS, SD score.
