Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   Zinc is one of the essential component in neonatal growth, protein synthesis and many other pathway. It has been shown to lower the serum Bilirubine level by inhibition of normal enterohepatic cycling of unconjugated bilirubin. Therefore, the anticipated role of oral zinc supplementation in neonatal jaundice seems to be attractive. This radamised clinical trial will be conducted on term neonate to characterize the role of zinc sulfate in neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.
