DOI: 10.1001/jamapediatrics.2017.3785
Abstract: Importance Despite the increasing prevalence of pregravid obesity, systematic evaluation of the association of maternal obesity with fetal growth trajectories is lacking. Objective To characterize differences in fetal growth trajectories between obese and nonobese pregnant… read more here.

Regulation of inflammation during gestation and birth outcomes: Inflammatory cytokine balance predicts birth weight and length
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "American Journal of Human Biology"
DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.23245
Abstract: The maternal environment during gestation influences offspring health at birth and throughout the life course. Recent research has demonstrated that endogenous immune processes such as dysregulated inflammation adversely impact birth outcomes, increasing the risk for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.5580
Abstract: Abstract The vertical transmission of microbes from mother to offspring is critical to the survival, development, and health of animals. Invertebrate systems offer unique opportunities to conduct studies on microbiome‐development‐reproduction dynamics since reproductive modes ranging… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jmor.20874
Abstract: Teleosts possess unique features of the female reproductive system compared with the rest of vertebrates, features that define the characteristics of their viviparity. Viviparity involves new maternal–embryonic relationships detailing the most diverse structures during gestation… read more here.
