Malnutrition alters the cell numbers, cell migration, synaptogenesis, and neurotransmission due to inadequate availability of necessary micronutrients to support cell growth. We aimed to analyze neurocognitive development in infants with malnutrition and its association with long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA), micronutrients levels and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) findings %K Malnutrition %K Neurocognitive %K Calcium %K Fatty acids %K unsaturated %K Spectroscopy %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6416383/
