I'm thinking about the best study design for comparing fat content in expressed breast milk from pre-term and term infants. The question suggests a cross-sectional design since we can collect milk samples at a specific time. We have options like case-control, prospective cohort, and longitudinal studies, but a prospective cohort seems fitting because it allows for measuring fat content between two groups. Still, it's important to note we’re focusing on composition rather than incidence, which might complicate the typical cohort approach.
