Visfatin/NAMPT levels in breast milk study
This study looks at a substance called visfatin/NAMPT in breast milk to learn more about its role in newborn health. It involves healthy full-term babies and their mothers who are in the hospital and can provide breast milk samples.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how tiny molecules in breast milk (called microRNAs) affect the bacteria in a baby's gut. It may help us understand why breast milk is so good for babies.
This trial looks at how early feeding (breastmilk or formula) affects an infant's immune system and health. Researchers will collect samples and health information from mothers and their babies over time.
This study looks at genetic and other biological information from samples collected from mothers and their babies after birth. It may help researchers understand factors that affect healthy pregnancies and newborn outcomes.
This study looks at how what a mother eats affects her breastmilk and might relate to her baby's future weight. By joining, you help researchers understand how to prevent overweight and obesity in children.
This study tests whether feeding extremely preterm babies only human milk (no formula) affects early health outcomes, including risks that may develop later. It also includes term-born babies for comparison. The study is mainly about feeding and safety, and you would follow the study’s feeding plan.
This study looks at the natural content of breast milk from mothers who breastfeed their newborns for at least 6 months. By donating small extra milk samples, you help researchers understand what makes milk so good for babies.
