Mother's milk and nutrients may shape preterm baby brain development
NCT ID NCT02184650
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 206 very premature babies (born before 32 weeks) to see how early nutrition affects their brain development. Researchers measured the amount of mother's milk, breastfeeding duration, and intake of healthy fats and iron during hospital stays. The goal was to find links between these nutrients and the babies' developmental progress, without providing any direct treatment.
