Summary

This study looks at the long-term health of mothers and their first-born children 29 years after they took part in a program where nurses visited them at home during pregnancy and early childhood. Researchers measured things like weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, and other markers of chronic disease risk. The goal is to see if these early visits helped prevent conditions like heart disease and diabetes later in life.
