Abstract

In Reply.— The purpose of the study reported in the paper1 to which Zlotkin refers was to evaluate the efficacy of a new parenteral amino acid mixture (ie, TrophAmine) with respect to maintaining "normal" plasma amino acid concentrations and promoting nitrogen retention in low birth weight infants. Because the study was not a controlled trial in which this amino acid mixture was compared with another mixture, a concerted effort was made to avoid drawing conclusions or stating claims regarding the efficacy of this amino acid mixture relative to other mixtures.
