Declarations
:
: The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (IRB 14–010833).
: The IGram study enrolled pregnant African American mothers and their newborn infants. The purpose of the research study was to learn more about the bacteria normally living in the child’s gut, how it is transferred from mother to child, and whether it affects the child’s growth in the first 3 years of life. The IGRAM data used in this publication are consistent with the stated purpose of the research. The Institutional Review Board-approved consent documents included language that allowed participants to indicate whether they would like to have their information included in future research. Subjects may participate in the original research without their information (even if de-identified) being included in future research.
