Impact of plasma aluminum on neurocognitive outcomes at early school age in children with intestinal failure
Higher plasma AL concentrations in children at early school age with IF were modestly associated with lower IQ and visual memory scores. Plasma AL monitoring allows early detection of abnormal plasma concentration, minimization of AL in PN and potentially prevention of neurotoxicity in young children with IF.
