NCT ID NCT07756177
First seen Aug 10, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows mother-infant pairs from birth to 24 months to see how early nutrition, environmental exposures, and family factors relate to growth, development, and allergies in preterm and term infants. Researchers will use questionnaires and biological samples to examine human milk, gut microbes, physical growth, and developmental milestones. The goal is to understand whether these relationships differ between preterm and term infants, which could inform future health strategies.
