Tiny tummies, big clues: can poop predict preemie disease?
NCT ID NCT03717584
First seen Apr 13, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study follows 300 premature babies born before 33 weeks to learn why some develop serious conditions like necrotizing enterocolitis, lung disease, or growth problems. Researchers analyze bacteria and molecules from the babies' stool, blood, and urine, as well as their DNA from saliva, to find clues that might predict disease risk. The goal is to better understand these diseases, not to test a new treatment.
