About this trial

This is a prospective 11-17 -years follow-up of two existing pregnancy cohort (PREDO) and prevention (RADIEL) studies. The main objective is to investigate the associations between maternal overweight, obesity, hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, gestational diabetes, and maternal-fetal metabolome, child's birth outcomes, and overweight and obesity and cardio metabolic health outcomes in childhood and adolescence. During this follow-up study, the mothers and their 11-17-year-old children are invited for a study visit and their cardio metabolic health is studied by many different methods.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Trial population

The study population comprises two Finnish pregnancy cohort /prevention studies, in which mother-child pairs have already been followed from early pregnancy until the threshold of adolescence. Women for the PREDO study were enrolled at 12-14 gestational weeks and for the RADIEL study before conception or at 10-12 gestational weeks. They gave birth to a singleton live infant between 2006-2010 (PREDO) and 2008-2014 (RADIEL).
