Cord serum metabolic signatures associated with neonatal anthropometry and neurodevelopment through age two in twins

Puntos clave

• Neonatal anthropometry correlated with specific cord serum metabolites, linking early growth patterns to development.
• Growth metrics at two years revealed associations with unique metabolic profiles, notably in twins.
• Observational analysis using cord serum data evaluated metabolite impacts on neurodevelopment across the first two years.
• Findings support the potential of metabolic signatures as early indicators for growth and brain outcomes in infants.
