metabolite concentrations in neonates of mothers with COVID-19
exposure during pregnancy: a case-control study
S. Hui, J. Ngwa, K. Kapse, N. Andescavage, C. Limperopoulos
Children's National Hospital, Washington, United States
Impact: Neonates of COVID-19 infected mothers during
pregnancy may have their neurodevelopment altered. Research
focusing on neurodevelopment protection, including a dietary
supplement of choline and close monitoring of the neonates’
cognitive development, could benefit this cohort.
