NCT ID NCT04613583
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how a mother's lifestyle—like smoking, drinking, or exposure to pollution—can affect her baby's development in the womb. Researchers will collect tissues and information from 1,200 pregnancies (7-20 weeks) to understand how these factors may lead to health problems later in life, such as obesity or high blood pressure. No treatments are given; the goal is to gather knowledge to improve future prenatal care.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to

What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It collects data but does not test any drug or intervention, so direct health benefits are not immediate. Results may take years to translate into practical advice.
