Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the effects of prenatal mindfulness training (MT) compared to treatment as usual (TAU) on inflammation (measured by neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio or NLR) and fetal head circumference (HC%).
- Results showed that participants in the MT group had significantly lower NLR levels during the third trimester compared to those in TAU, indicating reduced maternal inflammation.
- While higher NLR was linked to lower fetal HC%, no significant difference in fetal HC% was found between the MT and TAU groups, suggesting more research is needed to confirm these results in a larger study.
