Distribution of the total n-6 to total n-3 PUFA ratio, total n-3 PUFA, total n-6 PUFA, total DMA, total MUFA, total PUFA and total SFA in the ROP and no-ROP groups. Results are presented as median, first and third quartiles, and range. ROP: retinopathy of prematurity; SFA: saturated fatty acids; MUFA: monounsaturated fatty acids; PUFA: polyunsaturated fatty acids; FAMEs: fatty acid methyl esters; DMAs: dimethylacetals.
