Study Arms (2)

Omega-3 supplement group

EXPERIMENTAL

This group included 35 full term Intrauterine Growth Restriction( IUGR) neonates, who received omega-3 supplement (Docosa-hexa-enoic acid (DHA) 40 mg/kg/ day) after establishment of full feeding.

Dietary Supplement: Omega-3 supplement group

Full feeding without receiving any supplementation group

EXPERIMENTAL

This group included 35 full term Growth Restriction( IUGR) neonates who were followed up to full feeding without receiving any supplementation.

Other: Full feeding without receiving any supplementation group

Interventions
