Gestational phthalate exposure and lung function during childhood: A prospective population-based study
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
The potential effect of gestational exposure to phthalates on the lung function levels during childhood is unclear. Therefore, we examined this association at different ages (from 4 to 11 years) and over the whole childhood. ...
Susceptible windows of exposure to fine particulate matter and fetal growth trajectories in the Spanish INMA (INfancia y Medio Ambiente) birth cohort
(Elsevier, 2023-01)
While prior studies report associations between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure and fetal growth, few have explored temporally refined susceptible windows of exposure.We included 2328 women from the Spanish INMA ...
Omega-3 Fatty Acid Intake during Pregnancy and Child Neuropsychological Development: A Multi-Centre Population-Based Birth Cohort Study in Spain
(MDPI, 2022-02-25)
Background: There are few studies that look at the intake of all types of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) during the different stages of pregnancy along with a long-term neuropsychological follow-up of the ...
Maternal iron status during pregnancy and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms in 7-year-old children: a prospective cohort study.
(Nature, 2022)
vidence suggests that iron status may be linked to symptoms of childhood attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but there is little data available on the relationship between iron status in pregnancy and the risk ...
Exposure to natural environments during pregnancy and birth outcomes in 11 European birth cohorts
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Research suggests that maternal exposure to natural environments (i.e., green and blue spaces) promotes healthy fetal growth. However, the available evidence is heterogeneous across regions, with very few studies on the ...
Prenatal Vitamin D Levels Influence Growth and Body Composition until 11 Years in Boys
(MDPI, 2023-04-23)
Background: Gestational vitamin D levels may influence offspring growth and modulate adipogenesis. Findings from prospective studies are inconsistent, and few have evaluated the persistence of these associations into late ...
Novel Loci for Childhood Body Mass Index and Shared Heritability with Adult Cardiometabolic Traits
(Public Library Science, 2020-10-12)
The genetic background of childhood body mass index (BMI), and the extent to which the well-known associations of childhood BMI with adult diseases are explained by shared genetic factors, are largely unknown. We performed ...
In utero exposure to bisphenols and asthma, wheeze, and lung function in school-age children: a prospective meta-analysis of 8 European birth cohorts
(Elsevier, 2022-04)
[EN] BACKGROUND: In utero exposure to bisphenols, widely used in consumer products, may alter lung development and increase the risk of respiratory morbidity in the offspring. However, evidence is scarce and mostly focused ...
Prenatal and postnatal exposure to air pollution and emotional and aggressive symptoms in children from 8 European birth cohorts
(Elsevier, 2019-07-18)
Background: The association between air pollution exposure and emotional and behavioural problems in children is unclear. We aimed to assess prenatal and postnatal exposure to several air pollutants and child's depressive ...
Associations of residential greenspace exposure and fetal growth across four areas in Spain
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
An accumulating body of evidence has associated exposure to greenspace with improved birth outcomes, including higher birth weight and lower risk of low birth weight; however, evidence on such association with in-utero ...
