What this trial studies

The ChiTwiMC cohort is a multicenter prospective study focusing on the complications associated with twin pregnancies in China. It aims to establish a large mother-child cohort that follows participants from pregnancy through early childhood, collecting extensive data on maternal and neonatal outcomes. The study will recruit 2000 pregnant women aged 18-45 years from nine major university-affiliated hospitals, with data collection occurring at various stages of pregnancy and after delivery. Biological samples will also be collected to investigate adverse outcomes related to twin pregnancies.
