Absence of Evidence of Beneficial Effects of Human Milk‐Based Fortifier: A Bayesian Model‐Averaged Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Human milk‐based fortifiers (HMBFs) have been adopted in neonatal care despite limited efficacy data. Our objective was to conduct a Bayesian re‐analysis of the current evidence on the protective effect of HMBF against necrotising enterocolitis (NEC, stage II‐III).
