Background: Preterm infants (PIs) are more susceptible to neurodevelopmental impairment compared with term newborns. Adequate postnatal growth has been associated with improved neurocognitive outcomes; therefore, optimization of nutrition may positively impact the neurodevelopment of PIs.
Objective: This study focused on macronutrient parenteral nutrition (PN) intake during the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit stay and their associations with neurodevelopmental outcomes in PIs in the first two years of life.
Introduction: Achieving excellent cosmetic monsplasty results consistently can be difficult. Undertreatment or overtreatment of the fatty ptotic mons pubis will yield suboptimal results. A stepwise tactical approach to the monsplasty eliminates these problems and produces excellent aesthetic results.

Seeds of the varieties Futura 75 and Uso 31 were pressed using a mechanical press with a cooling device. Five pressings were carried out for each variety and nozzle size, the functional parameters of the extraction processes were recorded, and sample of the residual cakes ( = 20) were analyzed.
