Popis: Even in very small premature infants (less than 1,000 g) intravenous feeding with Intralipid results in an elevation of total and a fall of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels. If oral feeding occurs while Intralipid is given, HDL cholesterol levels rise again. A positive correlation was found between levels of total cholesterol and the amount of fat administered. A negative relationship was evident between the level of total cholesterol and that of HDL and between the latter and the amount of fat consumed.
