Abstract

We examined the relationship between immune markers at birth in a high-risk premature infant population and measures of communication, cognition, and ASD outcomes at 12 and 24 months. We identified several cytokines that significantly correlated with measures of delayed communication and other measures of neurodevelopmental disorders including ASD.
