Dysregulated fatty acid metabolites in the meconium of sFGR neonates are associated with severe brain injury. Divergent metabolomic profiles between sFGR-S and sFGR-L revealed distinct pathological mechanisms underlying brain injury. These findings provide novel insights into metabolic mechanisms of brain injury in sFGR and offer potential predictive biomarkers for adverse neurological outcomes.
