Understanding and managing growth issues and birth defects in fetuses and infants

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to create a comprehensive platform that collects clinical information and biological specimens from fetuses and infants diagnosed with intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) or congenital anomalies. By following these cases from prenatal diagnosis through postnatal outcomes, the study seeks to explore the occurrences, progression, and clinical outcomes of these conditions. The research will also investigate potential factors, pathogenesis, and prognostic biomarkers associated with IUGR and congenital anomalies, ultimately aiming to improve diagnosis and treatment strategies. This large-sample prospective cohort study is designed to fill the gap in existing research by linking intrauterine and extrauterine data.
