Forty one patients had received parenteral feeding (including lipid emulsion in 30), and 441 had died before starting feeds or had received enteral feeds alone.

The main features of the PIMs were the presence of tubular invaginations in the membrane (micropinocytosis vermiformis), phagosomes, and junctions with endothelial cells. A mean o...
