Aim: The aim of this study was to compare cardiometabolic measures between adolescents born to women with and without type1diabetes.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 103 adolescents (51 males) aged 14-19 years, born to women with type1diabetes were enrolled in the study. Body mass index, blood pressure, urine microalbumin to creatinine ratio, hemoglobin A1c, serum urate, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglyceride, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were measured in all. The results were compared with 98 adolescents born to non-diabetic women.
Results: In multiple linear regression models, adolescent offspring of women with type 1 diabetes had significantly higher blood pressure (Odds ratio [OR] 2·45; 95% Confidence interval [CI] 2.1-2.8, hypertension (OR 2.52; 95% CI 1.99-3.01), body mass index (OR 2.22; 95% CI: 1.76-2.69), elevated total cholesterol (OR 1.5; 95% CI 0.2-2.9), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (OR·33; 95% CI 1.06-1.64), triglyceride (OR 1.34; 95% CI: 1.05-1.70), eGFR (OR 0.96 ;95% CI 0.81-1.11) and microlabuminuria (OR 1.1; 95% CI: 0.87-1.12) compared to offspring of women without diabetes.
Conclusion: The study demonstrates a strong correlation between maternal exposure to type1diabetes and higher risk of developing obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, eGFR, and microalbumiuria in the adolescent offspring.

The perinatal period encompasses a critical window for neurodevelopment that renders the brain highly responsive to experience. Trauma, such as intimate partner violence (IPV) and early life stress/neglect, during this period negatively affects physical and mental health outcomes, including increasing ones risk for chronic pain. Although epigenetic programming likely contributes, the mechanisms that drive the relationship between perinatal trauma and adverse health outcomes, are not fully understood.

Introduction: Maternal undernutrition and inflammation in utero may significantly impact the neurodevelopmental potential of offspring. However, few studies have investigated the effects of pregnancy interventions on long-term child growth and development. This study will examine the effects of prenatal nutrition and infection management interventions on long-term growth and neurodevelopmental outcomes of offspring.

Early life environmental exposures, even those experienced before conception, can shape health and disease trajectories across the lifespan. Optimizing the detection of the constellation of exposure effects on a broad range of child health outcomes across development requires considerable sample size, transdisciplinary expertise, and developmentally sensitive and dimensional measurement. To address this, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Cohort Study is an observational longitudinal pediatric cohort study.

Background: The Special Issue articles describe six systems of parental interventions and developmental care several differences among each of the approaches. Nevertheless, on a deeper level there are profound similarities shared across the six systems. These similarities are at the heart of developmental care in general and parental interventions in particular.
