Brief Summary:
Research study on the role of early life nutrition on brain and cognitive development during infancy and early childhood. Two blends of myelin-relevant nutrients at different levels were compared and a breastfed group was considered as epidemiological reference.
Detailed Description:
This nutritional intervention study involved assessments in both the mother and her infant. The mother was asked to complete self-report questionnaires and to undergo a brief cognitive assessment. If the mother was not breastfeeding, a study product was provided and was consumed by the infant daily up to 12 months of life. The study also involved magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans of the infant's brain while asleep as well as evaluation of cognitive outcomes, including general cognitive development, and social-emotional development.
Once all trial subjects completed the 6-month timepoint (intervention part), an inferential statistical analysis of all data up to 6 months was performed.
Product codes (blinding) were broken to compare groups and an appropriate operational framework was put in place to maintain the individual assignment unknown to the Sponsor and Sites until the end of the trial.
