Associations of green and blue space exposure in pregnancy with epigenetic gestational age acceleration [PDF]
Early life is seen as a particularly sensitive period for environmental exposures. Natural space exposure during pregnancy has been associated with offspring health.

Epigenetic gestational age acceleration: a prospective cohort study investigating associations with familial, sociodemographic and birth characteristics [PDF]
Background Gestational age at delivery is associated with health and social outcomes. Recently, cord blood DNA methylation data has been used to predict gestational age.

Prenatal and birth associations of epigenetic gestational age acceleration in the Center for the Health Assessment of Mothers and Children of Salinas (CHAMACOS) cohort [PDF]
Gestational age (GA) is an important determinant of child health and disease risk. Two epigenetic GA clocks have been developed using DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns in cord blood.

Immune pathways and prenatal/perinatal environmental exposures contribute to epigenetic gestational age prediction and acceleration [PDF]
DNA methylation (DNAm), capturing chronological gestational age (GA) and epigenetic gestational age acceleration (EGAA), can be modified by environmental exposures. The Asthma&Allergy array is a new DNAm array developed with content focused on asthma and

Maternal plasma fatty acid patterns in mid-pregnancy and offspring epigenetic gestational age at birth [PDF]
Maternal pregnancy fatty acid status is associated with child health. Epigenetic gestational age acceleration, referring to a discrepancy between chronological and epigenetic gestational age, may underlie these associations.

Analysis of prenatal medication use and placental epigenetic gestational age in extremely low gestational age newborns (ELGANs) highlight relationships to aspirin use during pregnancy [PDF]
Background Several maternal exposures such as acetaminophen during pregnancy have been previously associated with altered placental CpG methylation. Epigenetic gestational age measures biological aging using DNA methylation from gestational tissues such ...

Fetal pulmonary artery acceleration/ejection time prognostic accuracy for respiratory complications in preterm prelabor rupture of membranes [PDF]
Background: Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) impact on approximately 3 percentage of pregnancies and is linked with severe maternal problems, resulting in, significant neonatal mortality and morbidity.
