Exploratory analysis of immune profiles in 2- to 3-year-old children with growth stunting

Puntos clave

• Biologically plausible inflammatory signatures are present in children with growth stunting, indicating a potential immune response.
• The analysis highlights specific humoral activation signatures linked to stunted growth in 2- to 3-year-old children.
• Observational analysis across young children suggests a need for larger longitudinal studies to further investigate these findings.
• These immune profile insights could contribute to understanding and addressing growth stunting in early childhood.
