This study aims to understand if having fat in the liver (detected by ultrasound) during pregnancy is a sign that a woman's blood sugar control might worsen after giving birth. Researchers will follow 189 women who had gestational diabetes, measuring markers of insulin resistance…

This study aims to create the first detailed reference values for how a healthy infant's heart relaxes and fills with blood (diastolic function) during the first days and years of life. Researchers will follow 216 babies born at 35 weeks or later, giving them four heart ultrasoun…

This study aims to see if continuous glucose monitors (small sensors worn on the skin) can provide better information for diagnosing gestational diabetes than the current standard blood test. Researchers will compare glucose data from 400 pregnant women at high risk for the condi…

This study aims to understand how regular physical activity during pregnancy affects the placenta's health and function. Researchers will follow 40 pregnant women, collecting health information and biological samples to see if active lifestyles improve how the placenta supports t…

This study aims to understand if certain substances in a pregnant person's blood during the first trimester can help predict who will develop gestational diabetes later in pregnancy. Researchers are comparing blood samples from 160 pregnant individuals with and without gestationa…

This long-term study is observing over 1,300 children aged 8-10 in rural India to understand how they grow and develop. Researchers are tracking their height, weight, bone strength, and nutrition over many years, and will also follow them into adulthood to see how their health af…

This study is testing whether regular, painless glucose (sugar) monitoring during pregnancy can help predict who might develop gestational diabetes or preeclampsia. Researchers will follow 100 pregnant women with risk factors, comparing those who use the non-invasive monitor plus…
