Imbalances in either the direction of nutritional excess or deficiency can have adverse consequences for child health. In addition, more research now suggests that good pregnancy nutrition influences child health beyond pregnancy and delivery. This includes modifying the risk of child health outcomes as they enter childhood and adulthood through influences on placental development, hormonal pathways, and organ structure and function. Poor pregnancy nutrition may also compromise maternal health during pregnancy, which may have long-term consequences for women's health. Understanding the biological and social mechanisms operating during pregnancy can help in the design of better clinical and public health interventions. This Special Issue on "The Role of Pregnancy Nutrition in Maternal and Offspring Health" includes etiological and mechanistic studies of pregnancy nutrition with short- and long-term maternal and child health outcomes, including original research, narrative reviews, and systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Together, this body of work provides important insights into the influence of dietary patterns, food groups, and nutrients on pregnancy outcomes, and long-term neurodevelopmental, respiratory, and metabolic health in the children. It also highlights nutritional consequences for specific groups of women, including those with pregnancy complications and eating disorders.Biology, life sciencesbicsscangiogenesisanorexia nervosaapoptosisasthmaattention deficit disorder with hyperactivityautism spectrum disorderbinge eating disorderbirth lengthbirth weightbirthweightbrain healthbreastfeedingbulimia nervosaCamelliacholinechronic kidney diseasedevelopmental origins of health and diseaseDHAdietdietary behaviourdietary habitsdietary screeningDlx3docosahexaenoic acideating behavioreating disordersEchinaceaessential fatty acidsetiologyeye functionfatty fishfetal developmentfoetal growthfoetal programmingfood clustersfood frequency questionnairefood-related IgGfortificationgestational agegestational diabetesghrelinhead circumferencehuman milkhypothalamic inflammationimmunomodulatorsinfant nutritioninflammationInsufficiencyIodinelactationlarge for gestational age (LGA)lifestyle interventionmaternal nutritionMediterranean dietmeta-analysismicrogliamicronutrientsneonatal outcomesneurodevelopmental disordersnon-IgE-mediated food reactionsnutritionnutritional programingObesityobesity preventionoffspring healthomega-3Panaxplacentaplacental insufficiencyplacental transportplant-based dietspreeclampsiapregnancypregnancy nutritionpregnancy outcomespreterm birthpreterm Birthpreterm laborprobioticspurgingRhodiolaSGAsirtuinsmall for gestational age (SGA)social experimentsystematic reviewvegan dietsvegetarian dietsvitamin DweaningBiology, life sciencesMaslova Ekaterinaauth1316971BOOK9910367740303321The Role of Pregnancy Nutrition in Maternal and Offspring Health3032828UNINA
