简要总结
In this study the investigators assess whether, in CS-delivered infants, the intestinal microbiome could be successfully and safely normalised by postnatal oral transfer of maternal fecal microbiome.
详细描述
In this study the investigators assess whether, in CS-delivered infants, the intestinal microbiome could be successfully and safely normalised by postnatal oral transfer of maternal fecal microbiome. After faecal microbiota transfer, the children are followed for 24 months for the evaluation of markers of, for example, atopy-related diseases, and changes in immunomarkers associated with the transfer.

结局指标
主要结局
Longitudinal change of intestinal microbiota assessed with 16S rRNA and shotgun sequencing
时间窗: At three months of age

- Difference in markers of aeroallergen immunoglobulin Es(At 24 months of age)
- Difference in markers of cow milk immunoglobulin Es(At 12 months of age)
- Difference in tetanus and measles, mumps and rubella vaccine responses(At 12 and 24 months of age)
