Elevation of plasma lathosterol, as an indicator of increased cholesterol synthesis, in preterm (23-32 weeks gestation) infants given Intralipid.

abstract：:We have developed a method for measuring oxygen consumption (Vo2) in preterm infants in their normal incubator environment over prolonged periods.
