No results posted yet for this study

Summary

"The prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) is approximately 13%. PPD is associated with a higher maternal morbidity and mortality, and also with pervasive effects on the emotional, cognitive and behavioral development of the infant.

Stressful life events, socio-demographic and obstetrical risk factors have been associated with the risk of PPD. Genetics risk factors of PPD have also been identified. We are presently studying for the first time how maternal stressors may interact with genetic factors to increase the risk of PPD (Gene x Environment interaction)".
