aSubject ages ranged from 1 to 488 days old, and the median age was 100.5 days. 30 total decedents were studied and included both male (n = 21) and female (n = 9) infants. A total of 81 tissues were analyzed from three brain regions, including the frontal cortex (FC, n = 29), hippocampus (HPC, n = 24), and the occipital cortex (OC, n = 28).
bAll values are significant (P < 0.05). Lysophospholipid metabolites:lutein correlations with r values ≥ |0.45| and P < 0.05 are reported.
