Pregnancy Loss in Relation to the Risks of Female-Specific Cancers in a Population-Based Cohort and Mendelian Randomization Study - China, 2004-2017.

What Is Already Known About This Topic?: Limited evidence exists regarding the relationship between pregnancy loss and female-specific cancers within the Chinese population from prospective cohort studies.

What Is Added By This Report?: Terminations were associated with a 13% lower risk of endometrial cancer, whereas stillbirths were related to an 18% higher risk of cervical cancer. Rural residents with a history of pregnancy loss experienced a 19% and 38% increased risk of breast and cervical cancers, respectively, compared to their urban counterparts.

Pre-pregnancy body mass index and risk of maternal or infant complications with gestational diabetes mellitus as a mediator: A multicenter, longitudinal cohort study in China.

Aims: We explored the complex relationships between pre-pregnancy body mass index (pBMI) and maternal or infant complications and the mediating role of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in these relationships.

Methods: Pregnant women from 24 hospitals in 15 different provinces of China were enrolled in 2017 and followed through 2018. Propensity score-based inverse probability of treatment weighting, logistic regression, restricted cubic spline models, and causal mediation analysis were utilized.

Multi-Stage Thermal Modelling of Extrusion-Based Polymer Additive Manufacturing.

Additive manufacturing is one the most promising fabrication strategies for the fabrication of bone tissue scaffolds using biodegradable semi-crystalline polymers. During the fabrication process, polymeric material in a molten state is deposited in a platform and starts to solidify while cooling down. The build-up of consecutive layers reheats the previously deposited material, introducing a complex thermal cycle with impacts on the overall properties of printed scaffolds.

Longitudinal association of maternal dietary patterns with antenatal depression: Evidence from the Chinese Pregnant Women Cohort Study.

Background: Limited evidence to show the longitudinal associations between maternal dietary patterns and antenatal depression (AD) from cohort studies across the entire gestation period.

Methods: Data came from the Chinese Pregnant Women Cohort Study. The qualitative food frequency questionnaire (Q-FFQ) and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) were used to collect diet and depression data.

Cohort profile: the Chinese Pregnant Women Cohort Study and Offspring Follow-up (CPWCSaOF).

Purpose: A multicentre prospective cohort study, known as the Chinese Pregnant Women Cohort Study (CPWCS), was established in 2017 to collect exposure data during pregnancy (except environmental exposure) and analyse the relationship between lifestyle during pregnancy and obstetric outcomes. Data about mothers and their children's life and health as well as children's laboratory testing will be collected during the offspring follow-up of CPWCS, which will enable us to further investigate the longitudinal relationship between exposure in different periods (during pregnancy and childhood) and children's development.

Participants: 9193 pregnant women in 24 hospitals in China who were in their first trimester (5-13 weeks gestational age) from 25 July 2017 to 26 November 2018 were included in CPWCS by convenience sampling.

Influence of residential greenness on adverse pregnancy outcomes: A systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis.

Background: With the development of urbanization, there is a decreasing tendency for people contact with natural greenness. Whether maternal exposure to greenness has an impact on pregnancy complications and pregnancy outcomes remains to be confirmed.

Objectives: To estimate the association and dose-response relationship between residential greenness and pregnancy outcomes.
