Abstrakt:	Formulas containing intact cow milk protein are appropriate alternatives when human milk (HM) is not feasible. However, for babies with a physician‐diagnosed cow milk protein allergy (CMPA), hydrolyzed formulas are needed. We conducted a 3‐month, open‐label, nonrandomized concurrent controlled trial (ChiCTR2100046909) between June 2021 and October 2022 in Qingdao City, China. In this study, CMPA toddlers were fed with a partially hydrolyzed formula containing synbiotics (pHF, n = 43) and compared with healthy toddlers fed a regular intact protein formula (IF, n = 45) or HM (n = 21). The primary endpoint was weight gain; the secondary endpoints were changes in body length and head circumference of both CMPA and healthy toddlers after 3‐month feeding; and the exploratory outcomes were changes in gut microbiota composition. After 3 months, there were no significant group differences for length‐for‐age, weight‐for‐age, or head circumference‐for‐age Z scores. In the gut microbiota, pHF feeding increased its richness and diversity, similar to those of IF‐fed and HM‐fed healthy toddlers. Compared with healthy toddlers, the toddlers with CMPA showed an increased abundance of phylum Bacteroidota, Firmicutes, class Clostridia, and Bacteroidia, and a decreased abundance of class Negativicutes, while pHF feeding partly eliminated these original differences. Moreover, pHF feeding increased the abundance of short‐chain fatty acid producers. Our data suggested that this pHF partly simulated the beneficial effects of HM and shifted the gut microbiota of toddlers with CMPA toward that of healthy individuals. In conclusion, this synbiotic‐containing pHF might be an appropriate alternative for toddlers with CMPA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
