Presentation Title: Long Term Effects Of Medically Prescribed Diets on Growth and Body Composition in Children with Inborn Errors of Metabolism
Synopsis (2-3 sentences): This study documents longitudinal growth and body composition patterns
in children with inborn errors of metabolism on protein modified diets.
In particular it documents natural protein tolerance across a range of
disorders, and describes the association between dietary intake and growth and
body composition. It aims to define a single index called the Protein to Energy
ratio that may be used as an additional clinical tool to address dietary
quality.
