Summary
This study follows 300 premature babies born before 33 weeks to learn why some get serious diseases like necrotizing enterocolitis, lung problems, or growth failure. Researchers collect samples of blood, urine, stomach fluid, poop, and mother's milk to measure bacteria and small molecules. The goal is to find clues in the gut that could predict which babies are at higher risk.
