Brief Summary

In the PREOBE projects it is aimed to obtain genetic and biochemical biomarkers for the programming of obesity in early stages of life. This can be achieved by studying pregnant women with normal weight, overweight, obesity and gestational diabetes, and by analyzing how these conditions could impact on fetal growth and development; the risk of obesity in the offspring during the first 3 years of life will be also assessed (genetic polymorphisms of the most recognized genes related to obesity; gene expression of placental biomarkers indicators of early programming, polyunsaturated fatty acids, immunological and pro-inflammatory markers, analysis of endogenous and exogenous lipid peroxidation, allergies \& neurodevelopmental assessment...). Moreover, the interaction of pathological maternal conditions with confounder factors that could have a role in the proposed outcomes will be also studied (maternal and child dietary intake, medical history and socioeconomic \& environmental factors).

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

A total of 350 pregnant women aged between 18 and 42, with singleton pregnancies, were recruited at 12 weeks of pregnancy at the Clinical University Hospital 'San Cecilio' and "Mother-Infant" Hospital in the city of Granada, Spain

You may qualify if:

  • healthy pregnant women aged between 18 and 42
  • singleton pregnancies
  • pregnancy stage at recruitment: 12 weeks of pregnancy

You may not qualify if:

  • Women who wish to participate in the study should not simultaneously participate in other research studies.
  • Must be completely enclosed in one of the study of the groups without any possibility to be simultaneously incorporated on more groups of the study
  • Mothers which are receiving any drug treatment, folate more than the 3rd first months, or DHA +/- vitamin supplements during pregnancy.
  • Mothers following an extravagant diet or vegan diet.
