Abstract:Abstractsvitamin-E levels were significantly increased in SMOFlipid group. Oleic and Linoleic acid levels were increased in both groups. No significant differences were noted in post study Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) levels in both groups despite higher levels of DHA in SMOFlipid. Conclusions SMOFlipid was safe, well tolerated and also showed beneficial effect in terms of reduction of oxidative stress by reducing lipid peroxidation levels in high risk preterm neonates. Vascular pressure reactivity is the abilit… Show more
“…Infants were included after completing enrolment for a previous study that focused on changes in left ventricular dimensions and function directly after birth 18. Parents were approached during preoperation visit or by telephone at least one day before the caesarean section took place.…”

“…Standard two-dimensional (2D) grey-scale images were acquired from the suprasternal, parasternal and apical views and stored in digital format 18. To assess the velocity time integral (VTI), Doppler pulsed wave measurements were obtained in the apical ‘five-chamber’ parasternal long-axis view at the level of the aortic annulus for left ventricular output (LVO) and in the parasternal short-axis view at the level of the pulmonary annulus for RVO.…”

Aortic diameter was measured at the level of the aortic annulus in the parasternal long axis, pulmonary diameter was measured at the level of the pulmonary annulus in the parasternal short axis and diameter of the aortic and pulmonary annulus were measured at each time point 18. The DA was visualised in its long axis from the pulmonary artery and the descending aorta in the suprasternal view.…”
DA shunting changes swiftly from predominantly right-to-left shunting to predominantly left-to-right shunting at 10 min after birth, reflecting differential changes in pulmonary and systemic vascular resistance.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
