Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study including about 550 mother-infant pairs in Beijing will be conducted to evaluate the association between mothers' gestational weight gain and the gut microbiota of them and their infants.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Purpose To evaluate whether mothers' gestational weight gain is associated with differences in maternal and their infants gut microbiota characteristics.

Methods and analysis This is a prospective, multicenter, observational cohort study including about 550 mother-infant pairs from PUMCH and other 3 hospitals in Beijing. After signing consent form, every participant will bring home a weighting scale for checking and record the weight every week from they enrolled to a year postpartum. The blood samples, fecal samples, vaginal swabs and oral swabs of the mothers will be collected at first, second, third trimester and postpartum 42 days. The infants' fecal samples will be collected at 0\~3, 14, 42 days and 3, 6, 9, 12 months after born. Questionnaire for mothers (diet, exercise, antibiotic and probiotic usage, oral hygiene habits etc.) and their infants (delivery mode, feeding pattern, antibiotic and probiotic usage etc.), as well as the medical records will be collected along with the sample collecting. Bio-specimen will be tested by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Logistical regression and covariance analysis will be used to determine the relationships between the demographic data, gestational weight gain and microbiota composition.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

appropriate GWG group

2009 IOM criteria recommended an appropriate range of weight gain during pregnancy and during each pregnant trimester according to BMI. The participants whose GWG value is in the recommended normal range is in this group.

No interventions assigned to this group

excess GWG group

2009 IOM criteria recommended an appropriate range of weight gain during pregnancy and during each pregnant trimester according to BMI. The participants whose GWG value is over the upper limit of the recommended normal range is in this group.

No interventions assigned to this group

insufficient GWG group

2009 IOM criteria recommended an appropriate range of weight gain during pregnancy and during each pregnant trimester according to BMI. The participants whose GWG value is below the lower limit of the recommended normal range is in this group.

No interventions assigned to this group
