**I, too, get lost in descriptions like these... I'm a not experienced 
enough reader, when it comes to scientific articles.
What I did notice, though, that there was no group that was fed human milk 
with fortifier or human milk with human-milk-fortifier. Maybe because human 
milk with (human milk) fortifier is on the way to be used more often, these 
people felt a need to publish their 'findings'. And what kind of milk was 
it, the human milk: was it drip milk, or actively pumped milk? Was the 
banked milk matched for age, so premature milk for premature babies? All in 
all, many questions remain unanswered and so this is, once again, a study 
that may very easily be abused to the advantage of the ABM-industry...

Kindly,

Marianne Vanderveen, Netherlands
