What this trial studies

This is a prospective birth cohort enrolling pregnant women early in pregnancy in Weifang, China, with follow-up of mothers, fathers, and children from birth through childhood. Investigators collect detailed information on environmental, nutritional, and lifestyle exposures and record short- and long-term health outcomes. Multiple biological samples (blood, urine, placenta, cord blood, umbilical cord, and feces) are banked for future biomarker and mechanistic studies. Data linkage and repeated follow-up visits will allow study of how exposures before and during pregnancy relate to outcomes such as gestational diabetes, hypertension, and preterm birth and later child health.
