Maternal and Infant Health Outcomes in US-Born and Non-US-Born Black Pregnant People in the US.
JAMA Netw Open
December 2024
Center of Excellence in Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health, University of California, Berkeley.
Importance: With disparate Black maternal health outcomes in the US and a steadily expanding non-US-born Black population, it is beneficial to investigate Black maternal health outcomes by country of origin.
Objective: To compare the prevalence of maternal morbidity and infant birth outcomes between US-born and non-US-born Black populations in the US.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study included all registered hospital births in the US from the 2021 National Vital Statistics Systems (NVSS) Natality Data.
Improved Birthweight Prediction With Feature-Wise Linear Modulation, GRU, and Attention Mechanism in Ultrasound Data.
J Ultrasound Med
December 2024
Department of Computer Science and Engineering, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Vadapalani Campus, Chennai, India.
Objectives: Birthweight prediction in fetal development presents a challenge in direct measurement and often depends on empirical formulas based on the clinician's experience. Existing methods suffer from low accuracy and high execution times, limiting their clinical effectiveness. This study aims to introduce a novel approach integrating feature-wise linear modulation (FiLM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and Attention network to improve birthweight prediction using ultrasound data.

Centre for Global Child Health, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada.
Infant undernutrition, defined by length- and weight-based indices, is common in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but corresponding deficits in head size have received less attention. In a cohort of term newborns in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we compared the severity of deficits (vs. World Health Organization Growth Standards) in head circumference (HC), length and weight at birth and every 3 months until 2 years of age (n range across timepoints: 843-920).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPhthalates (PAEs) are endocrine-disrupting chemicals that are widely present in everyday life and enter the human body through various pathways. The release of PAEs into the environment through pathways that include leaching, evaporation, abrasion, and the use of personal care products exposes humans to PAEs via ingestion, inhalation, and dermal absorption. Pregnant women, as a particularly vulnerable population, risk adverse newborn growth and development when exposed to PAEs.

Nicotine Tob Res
December 2024
Institute for Behavioral Genetics, University of Colorado, Boulder.
Introduction: Pregnant individuals who smoke face increased health risks because smoking harms both the mother and their developing offspring.
Methods: Using 307 417 Europeans from the UK Biobank, we examined whether exposure to maternal smoking during pregnancy (MSP) interacts with genetic risk to predict offspring birth weight (BW) and smoking behaviors. We investigated interactions between MSP and genetic risk at multiple levels: single variant, gene-level, and polygenic score.
