Maternal Cadmium Exposure during Pregnancy and Size at Birth: A Prospective Cohort Study
BACKGROUND Cadmium (Cd) is an embryotoxic and teratogenic metal in a variety of animal species, but data from humans are limited. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of maternal Cd exposure in pregnancy on size at birth. METHODS This prospective cohort study was nested in a population-based nutritional supplementation trial in pregnancy conducted in rural Bangl...
متن کاملThe association between maternal blood pressures and offspring size at birth in Southeast Asian women
BACKGROUND Maternal blood pressures in pregnancy is an important determinant of offspring size at birth. However, the relationship between maternal blood pressures and offspring's size at birth is not consistent and may vary between ethnic groups. We examined the relationship between maternal peripheral and central blood pressures and offspring size at birth in an Asian multi-ethnic cohort, and...
متن کاملMaternal testosterone levels during pregnancy are associated with offspring size at birth.
OBJECTIVE Animal studies have indicated that maternal androgen levels influence the intrauterine environment and development of the offspring. Human data are missing. We therefore investigated the possible association between maternal androgens and offspring size at birth in humans. DESIGN A random sample of parous Caucasian women (n=147) was followed prospectively through pregnancy. METHOD...
متن کاملEffects of maternal drinking, smoking, size, and parity on parent-offspring birth weight correlations.
Parent-offspring birth weight correlations are presented by sex of parent and infant. They range from .14 to .16, except for the mother-daughter correlation, which is .32. This pattern of parent-offspring correlations varies when the parity of the infant, the size of the mother, and the mother's drinking and smoking status are considered. All parent-offspring correlations are higher when the in...
متن کاملIntergenerational effects of maternal birth season on offspring size in rural Gambia
Environmental conditions experienced in early life can influence an individual's growth and long-term health, and potentially also that of their offspring. However, such developmental effects on intergenerational outcomes have rarely been studied. Here we investigate intergenerational effects of early environment in humans using survey- and clinic-based data from rural Gambia, a population expe...
