Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Concentration of NOD2 ligand in fecal samples

    The supernatants of fecal samples were used to examine the content of NOD2 ligand with the human NOD2/NF-κB/secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) reporter HEK293 cell

    Pre-intervention Phase: On the 3rd day after birth (V1), 7th day (V2), and 10th day (V3). Intervention Phase: During the intervention period, on the 2nd day (V4), 4th day (V5), 6th day (V6), 8th day (V7), 10th day (V8), 12th day (V9), and 14th day (V10)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Relative Abundance of Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) in Fecal Samples

    Pre-intervention Phase: On the 3rd day after birth (V1), 7th day (V2), and 10th day (V3). Intervention Phase: During the intervention period, on the 2nd day (V4), 4th day (V5), 6th day (V6), 8th day (V7), 10th day (V8), 12th day (V9), and 14th day (V10)

  • Concentration of DSM17938 per Gram of Feces Quantified by qPCR

    Pre-intervention Phase: On the 3rd day after birth (V1), 7th day (V2), and 10th day (V3). Intervention Phase: During the intervention period, on the 2nd day (V4), 4th day (V5), 6th day (V6), 8th day (V7), 10th day (V8), 12th day (V9), and 14th day (V10)
