Parenteral Lipid Emulsions and the Liver Function

Summary

The randomized, double-blind, multi-centric study performed in four parallel groups to compare all lipid emulsions, which can be used as a part of PN. Patients with home parenteral nutrition due to stable intestinal failure, were randomly assigned to receive parenteral nutrition with one the following lipid emulsions: * Long-chained triglycerides (LCT group) * Medium/ long-chained triglycerides MCT/LCT (50:50, MCT/LCT group)) * Olive oil/ LCT (80:20, OO group)) * SMOFlipid (Omega-3/ olive oil/ MCT/ LCT, SMOF group)
