This study investigated mid-trimester plasma metabolomic profiles in pregnant women to identify biomarkers associated with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and preterm birth. A total of 149 participants were categorized into four groups: 32 with PCOS and preterm delivery, 34 with PCOS and term de...

Spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is a leading cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, yet its prevention and early risk stratification are limited. Previous investigations have suggested that vaginal microbes and metabolites may be implicated in sPTB. Here we performed untargeted met...

The pregnancy vaginal microbiome contributes to risk of preterm birth, the primary cause of death in children under 5 years of age. Here we describe direct on-swab metabolic profiling by Desorption Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry (DESI-MS) for sample preparation-free characterisation of...

Background Sepsis diagnosis in preterm neonates is challenging due to symptom overlap with non-infectious inflammatory conditions, and slow, unreliable diagnostic practices. This study aims to identify metabolic biomarkers to elucidate sepsis pathophysiology, and enable timely, accurate diagnosis, w...

Preterm birth (PTB) remains a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, with no new preventive therapeutics introduced since the 1970s. Evidence increasingly implicates adverse vaginal microbiome-immune interactions in its aetiology. We report the effects of the live biotherapeutic, Lact...

Preterm birth (PTB) is a leading global cause of infant mortality. Risk factors include genetics, lifestyle choices and infection. Understanding the mechanism of PTB could aid the development of novel approaches to prevent PTB. This study aimed to investigate the metabolic biomarkers of PTB in early...

N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) may prevent retinal vascular abnormalities observed in oxygen-induced retinopathy, a model of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). In the OmegaROP prospective cohort study, we showed that preterm infants who will develop ROP accumulate the n-6 PUFA arachidonic...

The coordinated postnatal development of the gut microbiome and metabolome is essential for preterm infant health, yet its disruption is increasingly linked to adverse outcomes such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). In this study, we performed an integrated multi-omics analysis of fecal sample...

Extremely premature infants are a highly vulnerable patient group that might be exposed to a vast number of dietary and environmental contaminants, which may impact their health trajectories. This study assessed xenobiotic exposures in 26 extremely premature infants, with a special focus on dieta...
