New research conducted in Copenhagen, Denmark explores the associations between maternal education, exposure to green vegetation during pregnancy, gestational diabetes, and offspring body mass index (BMI) from infancy to early adulthood. The study used data from 18 cohorts and found that lower maternal education was associated with higher child BMI, with the association increasing with age. Gestational diabetes was positively associated with BMI from age 8, but the association weakened when restricted to cohorts that measured gestational diabetes via universal screening. Exposure to green vegetation was weakly associated with higher BMI up to age 1. The study discusses the opportunities for cross-cohort federated analyses. [Extracted from the article] |
