Sunflower Oil

01/01/1980 - "Fraction 1 caused a highly significant reduction in weight gain of the animals as compared with unheated sunflower oil but had only an insignificant detrimental effect upon the many biochemical, histological and clinical parameters. "
04/01/2010 - "Feed consumption and live weight gain were responsive to dietary sunflower oil inclusion during the starter period, but not during the grower period. "
09/01/2013 - "Sunflower oil massage might be used as an effective and safe intervention for weight gain in LBW preterm neonates."
01/01/2018 - "The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of five-day course of sunflower oil massage with moderate pressure on the weight gain and length of NICU stay in preterm infants. "
01/01/2018 - "The primary outcome was to evaluate the efficacy of a short course of moderate pressure sunflower oil massage on the weight gain velocity. "

03/19/2005 - "Our findings confirm that skin application of sunflower seed oil provides protection against nosocomial infections in preterm very low birthweight infants. "
09/01/2013 - "A single-blinded randomized clinical trial This study examined neonates admitted to NICU with gestational age of 33-37 weeks and birth weight of 1500-1999 g, without birth asphyxia and medically stable Neonates were randomly assigned to two groups to receive moderate pressure massage alone or the same massage with sunflower oil by their mothers, three times a day for 14 consecutive days. "
06/11/2022 - "The proposed NEWBORN study was designed to assess whether topical emollient therapy with sunflower seed oil in infants with very low birthweight <1500 g in Kenya would result in a significant reduction in neonatal mortality compared to standard of care. "
10/01/1989 - "Although Intralipid administration is often controversial or contraindicated in premature infants (hypoxia, septicemia, acidemia), it appears necessary to prevent plasmatic deficiency in C18:2. The latter cannot be prevented by topical application of sunflower seed oil, not even in very low birthweight infants."

08/01/2004 - "Treatment with sunflower seed oil (n = 51) resulted in a significant improvement in skin condition (P = 0.037) and a highly significant reduction in the incidence of nosocomial infections (adjusted incidence ratio, 0.46; 95% confidence interval, 0.26-0.81; P = 0.007) compared with infants not receiving topical prophylaxis (n = 52). "
08/01/2005 - "By contrast, a randomized controlled trial showed that infants treated with sunflower oil are less likely to experience nosocomial infections than are control infants. "
08/01/2004 - "We tested the impact of topical application of sunflower seed oil 3 times daily to preterm infants <34 weeks gestational age at the Kasr El-Aini neonatal intensive care unit at Cairo University on skin condition, rates of nosocomial infections and mortality. "
03/19/2005 - "Our findings confirm that skin application of sunflower seed oil provides protection against nosocomial infections in preterm very low birthweight infants. "
03/19/2005 - "Overall, infants treated with sunflower seed oil were 41% less likely to develop nosocomial infections than controls (adjusted incidence rate ratio [IRR] 0.59, 95% CI 0.37-0.96, p=0.032). "

03/01/2012 - "In the present study, the impact of a 3-week dietary pre-treatment with 10% (w/w) FO (n 28), sunflower oil (SO, n 28), or animal fat (AF, n 28) was evaluated with respect to post-operative responses in inflammatory markers in a porcine model on aortic vascular prosthetic graft infection. "
08/08/2022 - "We demonstrated that ozonated sunflower oil is effective at killing the biofilms formed by Candida species, by the bacterium Streptococcus mutans, or by both micoorganisms that can interact in the oral cavity, making it a potential therapeutic option for the treatment of these infections."
01/01/2022 - "Our results showed the effectiveness of two groups (O2-O3 gas mixture and ozonized sunflower oil) for the treatment of uterine infections in mares. "
06/01/2020 - "We hypothesised that topical treatment of hospitalised children with SAM using sunflower seed oil (SSO), in addition to standard-of-care for SAM, would improve skin barrier function and weight gain, reduce risk of infection, and accelerate clinical recovery. "
01/01/2019 - "Topical emollients, particularly sunflower seed oil, appear to reduce the incidence of skin infections in premature neonates-but only in developing countries. "

11/04/2023 - "Thirty adult horses [23 mares, 7 geldings; 14.9 years ± 5.3 years; 544 ± 66 kg body weight (BW) (Mean ± SD)] underwent a 4-week wash-in period consuming hay and sunflower oil. "
05/12/2021 - "Sunflower oil at 1.5% in diet countered (P ≤ 0.01) the adverse effects of 150 ppb AF on body weight, whereas at 300 ppb AF, such a response was seen at the higher level (3%) of SFO. "
01/01/2012 - "CD + n-6 and HFD + n-6 were supplemented with sunflower oil by oral gavage at 2 g/Kg of body weight, three times per week. "
05/11/2011 - "From day 4, and for 4 days, two groups of rats, nonfasted (NFT) and fasted (FT), received 1 g/100 g body weight of sunflower oil reused from 40 deep-frying processes, and two control groups of rats, nonfasted (NFC) and fasted (FC), received the same amount of fresh oil. "
02/24/2010 - "For three consecutive days, 12 male Wistar rats received 0.5 g of unused sunflower oil/100 g of body weight (controls, C) while another 12 were given 0.5 g of thermally oxidized sunflower oil/100 g of body weight (test group, T). "
