Urinary ¹H-NMR Metabolomics in the First Week of Life Can Anticipate BPD Diagnosis

Table 1

Discriminant metabolites in urine collected one week after birth, between preterm controls and preterms who will develop BPD.

Metabolites	Chemical shift (ppm)	Trend in the BDP group
Alanine	1.48	↑
Betaine	3.25	↑
TMAO	3.27	↓
Lactate	1.34	↓
Glycine	3.57	↓

TMAO = trimethylamine-N-oxide.
