Introduction
Racial and ethnic differences in fetal growth and birth size in the USA have not been adequately explained by individual-level socioeconomic status (SES) factors. We explored whether differences may be partially explained by county-level indicators of SES.
Methods
We linked participant zip codes from the National Institute of Child He...
OBJECTIVE
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increases the risk of fetal overgrowth as measured by two-dimensional ultrasonography. Whether fetal three-dimensional (3D) soft tissue and organ volumes provide additional insight into fetal overgrowth is unknown.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We prospectively evaluated longitudinal 3D fetal body compos...
Introduction
Maternal overweight or obesity has been associated with metabolic syndrome through 1 year postpartum, but it remains unknown whether a culturally-modified, motivationally-targeted, and individually-tailored Lifestyle Intervention could improve postpartum cardiometabolic health among Hispanic women with overweight or obesity.

Introduction
To evaluate the effect of a culturally-modified, motivationally-targeted, individually-tailored lifestyle intervention on postpartum weight retention among Hispanic women with overweight/obesity.
Materials and methods
Proyecto Mamá was a randomized controlled trial conducted in western Massachusetts (2014–2020). Hispanic women with ov...
Background:
Women with abnormal glucose tolerance during pregnancy are at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), with higher rates among Hispanics. However, studies on the impact of lifestyle interventions on postpartum CVD profiles are sparse.
Methods:
This is a secondary analysis of a controlled trial among a subsample of Hispanic women with a...
OBJECTIVES
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and spontaneous intestinal perforation (SIP) are complications in preterm infants associated with high morbidity, mortality, impaired growth, and neurodevelopmental (ND) outcomes. Few studies have reported growth or ND outcomes of infants born extremely preterm with NEC/SIP beyond early childhood. Here, we...
Objective
Evaluate physiologic changes during digital retinal imaging (DRI) using near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS).
Study design
Prospective observational study of preterm infants undergoing retinopathy of prematurity screening via DRI using wide-field retinal camera. Cardiorespiratory (CR) and NIRS data were collected, trends correlated for cha...
