Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Main hypothesis: specific interventions improving maternal lifestyle and well being have a positive impact on pregnancy outcomes as well as on fetal growth and development.
Secondary hypothesis is that interventions to improve maternal lifestyle well being have a positive impact on offspring's outcome later in life, in terms of neurodevelopment and cardiovascular profile, mediated by epigenetic changes in offspring.
