Predictive value of the aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index for parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis in extremely low birth weight infants

BACKGROUND: Parenteral nutrition (PN) improves the survival of premature infants. However, prolonged PN increases the risk of PN-associated cholestasis (PNAC). OBJECTIVE: We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of aspartate aminotransferase (AST)-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) for PNAC in infants...
