METHOD AND USE OF METABOLITES FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF INFLAMMATORY BRAIN INJURY IN PRETERM BORN INFANTS

摘要

The present invention relates to novel biomarkers for predicting the likelihood of inflammation-related brain injury in preterm born infants, using a plurality of endogenous target metabolites selected from the group consisting of acyl carnitins, diacylphosphatidylcholines, acyl-alkylphosphatidylchoines, lysophosphatidylcholines and amino acids.
