This is the peer reviewed version of the following article: Adolph, M. , Calder, P. C., Deutz, N. E., Carmona, T. G., Klek, S. , Lev, S. , Mayer, K. , Michael‐Titus, A. T., Pradelli, L. , Puder, M. , Singer, P. and Vlaardingerbroek, H. (2019), Commentary on “Fish Oil–Containing Lipid Emulsions in Adult Parenteral Nutrition: A Review of the Evidence”. Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 43: 454-455. doi:10.1002/jpen.1047, which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1002/jpen.1047. This article may be used for non-commercial purposes in accordance with Wiley Terms and Conditions for Use of Self-Archived Versions ; Abbasoglu et al published a narrative review concerning the use of fish oil–containing lipid emulsions in adult parenteral nutrition (PN).1 We wholeheartedly agree with the authors when they state that “high‐quality and adequately powered RCTs are necessary” and “well‐conducted meta‐analyses can be key to demonstrating positive or negative effects.” However, we disagree with other aspects of their review, particularly assertions of a lack of evidence in favor of using fish oil–containing lipid emulsions rather than more traditional lipid formulations. |
