Effects of early energy intake on neonatal cerebral growth of preterm newborn: an observational study

Abstract Current guidelines for preterm newborns recommend high energy nutrition soon after birth in order to limit growth retardation. However, long-term effects of this nutritional approach are still debated, and it has been demonstrated that cerebral growth depends on protein intake in early life...
