Antibiotic Use in Newborns and Gut Bacteria Health Study
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Infections clinical trials.
This study explores how antibiotics given during delivery affect a baby's gut bacteria and long-term health. If you are pregnant or just gave birth and received antibiotics during labor, you and your newborn may be able to join.

This study tests whether giving healthy newborns a special mix of their own mother's friendly bacteria can help build a healthy gut. It is for mothers who had a healthy pregnancy, plan to breastfeed, and live near Helsinki.
This study looks at how a probiotic supplement (beneficial bacteria) affects the development of a newborn's gut bacteria in the first weeks of life. Researchers want to understand if giving probiotics early helps establish a healthy gut.
This study looks at how antibiotics taken during pregnancy might affect the bacteria in your baby's gut. Researchers want to learn if this early exposure influences your baby's health.
This study tests whether giving a probiotic (a 'good' bacteria) to babies who received antibiotics shortly after birth can help their developing gut and immune system. Participants will receive a daily probiotic or placebo for about 6 weeks, and their health will be monitored.
This study looks at the gut bacteria of healthy, full-term newborns whose parents plan to breastfeed exclusively. It aims to understand how the gut microbiome develops in early life.
This study looks at how taking antibiotics during late pregnancy affects a baby’s early immune protection, with breastfeeding as an important factor. You may be able to join if you plan to breastfeed and either received antibiotics for at least 7 days after 32 weeks or did not receive such antibiotics during pregnancy.
