Summary

Since its initial outbreak in late 2019, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has ravaged the globe, causing illness characterized by inflammation and impaired oxygen levels. As a particularly vulnerable group, pregnant women have had a heightened prevalence and severity of infection. In this context, a new population of children has emerged who were exposed to maternal COVID-19 in the womb. As maternal diseases during pregnancy may impact the health of offspring over the life course, health outcomes among these individuals must be urgently evaluated. In the current study, the investigators will leverage a perinatal biorepository comprised of pregnant women with and without COVID-19 to delineate the metabolic and cardiovascular risk profiles of these offspring. This work stands to benefit the burgeoning population of children exposed to COVID-19 in the womb and to deepen the mechanistic understanding of developmental origins of cardiometabolic disease with respect to maternal infections.
