REGRESSION
Study flow diagram.(Multiple linear regression for associations between hindmilk fat content and anthropometric growth velocities in preterm infants. Δ Z−score is measured as a change in Z−score per every 1 g/dL difference in fat (Δ fat) and true protein (Δ true protein) between composite milk and hindmilk. The Δ fat and Δ true protein are based on a single analysis for composite milk and hindmilk.Correlations between milk and plasma bioactive fatty acids.Maternal and Neonatal characteristics of study participants.VentilationNon-invasiveNo supportMacronutrient content of composite milk and hindmilk.Estimated and actual intakes in the week before and the two weeks after feeding fortified hindmilk.* These values are based on composite milk reference given the unavailability of standard reference for hindmilk. ** Energy values need to be multiplied by ~1.1–1.2 to estimate the ones in hindmilk.Concentrations of milk fatty acid in composite milk and hindmilk.Plasma fatty acids proportions before and 2 weeks after feeding hindmilk.
