Cysteine: a conditionally essential amino acid in low-birth-weight preterm infants?
There is no evidence for limited endogenous cyst(e)ine synthesis in 4-wk-old LBW preterm infants born at gestational ages from 32 to 34 wk. It is safe to conclude that the cyst(e)ine requirement is<18 mg kg(-1) d(-1) providing generous amounts of methionine and that cyst(e)ine is probably not a conditionally essential amino acid in fully enterally fed LBW preterm infants born at 32-34 wk.
These results suggest that action video game players are equally susceptible to the costs of dividing attention in a complex task.
