Maternal red blood cell folate metabolites were dynamically associated with neonatal amino acids and acylcarnitines in heel blood: a prospective cohort study
Although maternal total folate and 5-MTHF levels showed no significant association with neonatal metabolites, maternal certain folate metabolites, especially THF, exhibited trimester-specific associations with neonatal metabolic pathways, warranting clinical attention.
