Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: To determine whether the secretor gene fucosyltransferase (FUT)2 polymorphism G428A is predictive for adverse outcomes in a large cohort of very-low-birth weight (VLBW) infants. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled 2,406 VLBW infants from the population-based multicenter cohort of the German Neonatal network cohort (2009-2011). The secretor genotype (rs601338) was assessed from DNA samples extracted...
