Could a simple supplement help fragile preemies breathe easier?

This early-phase study tests whether an oral supplement called L-Citrulline is safe for preterm babies born at or before 30 weeks who have lung problems (BPD) or a serious gut condition (NEC). The goal is to see if raising low levels of a natural substance in the blood can reduce harmful inflammation. About 36 infants will take part to check safety and how the body processes the supplement.
