    Abstract Obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus and dyslipidaemia are highly prevalent among women of reproductive age and contribute to complications in >30% of pregnancies in Western countries. An accumulating body of evidence suggests that these cardiovascular disorders in women, occurring before and during their pregnancy, can affect the development of the structure, physiology and function of cardiovascular organ systems at different stages during embryonic and fetal development. These developmental adaptations might, in addition to genetics and sociodemographic and lifestyle factors, increase the susceptibility of the offspring to cardiovascular disease throughout the life course. In this Review, we discuss current knowledge of the influence of maternal cardiovascular disorders, occurring before and during pregnancy, on offspring cardiovascular development, dysfunction and disease from embryonic life until adulthood. We discuss findings from contemporary, large-scale, observational studies that provide insights into specific critical periods, evidence for causality and potential underlying mechanisms. Furthermore, we focus on priorities for future research, including defining optimal cardiovascular and reproductive health in women and men before their pregnancy and identifying specific embryonic, placental and fetal molecular developmental adaptations from early pregnancy onwards. Together, these approaches will help stop the intergenerational cycle of cardiovascular disease.

    Abstract Background: Impaired arterial health is associated with a decline in cognitive function and psychopathology in adults. We hypothesized that these associations originate in early life. We examined the associations of blood pressure, common carotid artery intima media thickness, and carotid distensibility with behavior and cognitive outcomes during adolescence.
    Methods and results: This study was embedded in the Dutch Generation R Study, a population-based prospective cohort study from early fetal life onwards. Blood pressure, carotid intima media thickness, and carotid distensibility were measured at the age of 10 years. At the age of 13 years, total, internalizing and externalizing problems and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms were measured using the parent-reported Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL/6-18), autistic traits were assessed by the Social Responsiveness Scale, and IQ was assessed using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fifth Edition. A 1-SD score higher mean arterial pressure was associated with lower odds of internalizing problems (odds ratio [OR], 0.92 [95% CI, 0.85-0.99]). However, this association was nonsignificant after correction for multiple testing. Carotid intima media thickness and carotid distensibility were not associated with behavior and cognitive outcomes at 13 years old.
    Conclusions: From our results, we cannot conclude that the associations of blood pressure, carotid intima media thickness, and carotid distensibility at age 10 years with behavior and cognitive outcomes are present in early adolescence. Further follow-up studies are needed to identify the critical ages for arterial health in relation to behavior and cognitive outcomes at older ages.

    Abstract Background: Exposure to parental tobacco smoking during fetal life and childhood is associated with adverse cardiovascular health outcomes. It is not known whether these adverse parental lifestyle exposures are also associated with changes in the structure and function of the carotid arteries in children aged 10 years.
    Methods: In a population-based prospective cohort study among 4,639 healthy children, we examined the associations of fetal exposure to maternal (no, first trimester only, continued), paternal (no, yes), and combined parental tobacco smoking (nonsmoking parents, mother only, father only, both parents smoked) with carotid intima-media thickness and distensibility at 10 years. We also assessed the associations of exposure to any parental tobacco smoking at ages 6 and 10 years with these outcomes.
    Results: Compared with no exposure, fetal exposure to continued maternal smoking was not associated with carotid intima-media thickness (-0.04 standard deviation score (SDS); 95% confidence interval (CI): -0.13, 0.05); and distensibility (0 SDS, 95% CI: -0.09, 0.09) at age 10 years. Fetal exposure to two smoking parents was also not associated with carotid intima-media thickness (-0.07 SDS, 95% CI: -0.16, 0.02) and distensibility (0 SDS, 95% CI: -0.09, 0.10) at this age. Exposure to any parental smoking during childhood also was not associated with these outcomes at age 10 years.
    Conclusions: Exposure to parental tobacco smoking during fetal life and childhood was not associated with markers of arterial health in children aged 10 years. Prevention strategies aiming at minimizing smoke exposure later in life are still relevant regarding arterial health.

    Abstract Background: Higher early-life animal protein intake is associated with a higher childhood obesity risk compared to plant protein intake. Differential DNA methylation may represent an underlying mechanism.

    Results: Infant animal protein intake was not associated with DNA methylation in early childhood, but was associated with late-childhood DNA methylation at cg21300373 (
    Conclusion: Infant animal protein intake was associated with DNA methylation at two CpGs in late childhood. Infant plant protein intake was associated with DNA methylation in early childhood at two CpGs. A potential mediating role of DNA methylation at these CpGs between infant protein intake and health outcomes requires further investigation.

    Abstract Background: Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is defined as increased liver fat percentage, and is the most common chronic liver disease in children. Rather than NAFLD, Metabolic-Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD), defined as increased liver fat with presence of adverse cardio-metabolic measures, might have more clinical relevance in children. We assessed the prevalence, risk-factors and cardio-metabolic outcomes of MAFLD at school-age.
    Methods: This cross-sectional analysis was embedded in an ongoing population-based prospective cohort study started in 2001, in the Netherlands. In 1910 children of 10 years, we measured liver fat fraction by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and lipids, insulin, and glucose concentrations. Childhood lifestyle factors were obtained through questionnaires. MAFLD was defined as ≥2% liver fat in addition to excess adiposity (BMI or visceral adiposity), presence of metabolic risk (blood pressure, triglycerides and HDL-concentrations) or prediabetes (glucose).
    Findings: Of all children, 49.6% had ≥2% liver fat, and 25.2% fulfilled the criteria of MAFLD. Only non-European descent was associated with increased odds of MAFLD at nominal significance (Odds Ratio 1.38, 95% Confidence Interval 1.04, 1.82). Compared to children with <2% liver fat, those with MAFLD had increased odds of cardio-metabolic-risk-factor clustering (Odds Ratio 7.65, 95% Confidence Interval 5.04, 11.62).
    Interpretation: In this study, no NAFLD-associated childhood risk factors were associated with increased odds of childhood MAFLD, yet the findings suggest that ethnicity could be, despite mostly explained by socio-economic factors. Use of MAFLD criteria, rather than NAFLD, may identify children at risk for impaired cardio-metabolic health.

    Abstract Background & aims: Maternal polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) concentrations in pregnancy are essential for fetal lipid metabolism and adipocyte differentiation. Whether suboptimal maternal gestational PUFA concentrations adversely affect offspring liver fat development is unknown. We aimed to examine the associations of maternal n-3 and n-6 PUFA concentrations in pregnancy with childhood liver fat accumulation.
    Methods: In a population-based prospective cohort study among 2424 mother-child pairs, we measured maternal total and individual n-3 and n-6 PUFA plasma concentrations at mean gestational age of 20.6 ± 1.1 weeks. Childhood liver fat fraction was obtained by MRI at 10 years. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was a liver fat fraction ≥5.0%.
    Results: We observed that 1-Standard deviation (SD) higher maternal n-3 PUFA concentrations, especially DHA, was associated with a lower childhood liver fat fraction [-0.07 SD-score (95% CI -0.11 to -0.02, p-value = 0.001) for both total n-3 PUFA and DHA concentrations]. Of n-6 PUFAs, 1-SD higher maternal dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid concentrations was associated with a higher childhood liver fat fraction [0.06 SD-score (95% CI 0.02-0.10, p-value = 0.004)]. Associations were not explained by maternal or childhood socio-demographic and lifestyle characteristics. Associations were stronger among boys and less consistent among girls. Among boys, higher maternal total n-3 PUFA concentrations were associated with a lower risk of childhood non-alcohol fatty liver disease [odds ratio 0.42 (95% CI 0.25-0.70, p-value = 0.001)].
    Conclusions: Maternal lower n-3 PUFA and higher n-6 PUFA concentrations in pregnancy are associated with offspring liver fat accumulation in childhood. Optimizing maternal PUFA concentrations during pregnancy may be a target for preventing liver fat accumulation in their offspring.

    Abstract Exposure to specific stressors has been found to associate with higher adiposity in adulthood. However, the potential overlapping effects of stress domains have been overlooked, as well as the role of parenting-related stressors that mothers are widely exposed to in mid-adulthood. Therefore, we assessed the association of overlapping effects of stress domains, including parenting-related stress, with subsequent adiposity in mothers. In 3957 mothers from the population-based Generation R Study, life stress was assessed during the first 10 years of child-rearing and measured as a reflective latent variable of stress domains. Structural equation modelling was used to assess the association of life stress and its individual domains with body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference after 14 years of follow-up. Greater life stress over the course of 10 years was associated with a higher BMI (standardized adjusted difference: 0.57 kg/m

    Abstract Background: Body composition might influence lung function and asthma in children, but its longitudinal relations are unclear. We aimed to identify critical periods for body composition changes during childhood and adolescence in relation to respiratory outcomes in adolescents.
    Methods: In a population-based prospective cohort study, we measured body mass index, fat mass index (FMI), lean mass index (LMI) and the ratio of android fat mass divided by gynoid fat mass (A/G ratio) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at 6, 10 and 13 years. At 13 years, lung function was measured by spirometry, and current asthma was assessed by questionnaire.
    Results: Most prominently and consistently, higher FMI and A/G ratio at age 13 years were associated with lower forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV
    Conclusion: Adolescents with higher total and abdominal fat indices may have impaired lung function, while those with a higher lean mass during childhood and adolescence may have better small airway function. Public health measures should focus on a healthy body composition in adolescents to minimise respiratory morbidity.

    Abstract Women with obesity receive intensified antenatal care due to their increased risk of pregnancy complications, even though not all of these women develop complications. We developed a model based on maternal characteristics for prediction of healthy pregnancy outcomes in women with obesity or who are overweight. We assessed whether early-pregnancy metabolites improved prediction. In a population-based cohort study among a subsample of 1180 Dutch pregnant women with obesity or who are overweight, we developed a prediction model using 32 maternal socio-demographic, lifestyle, physical and pregnancy-related characteristics. We determined early-pregnancy amino acids, nonesterifed fatty acids, phospholipids and carnitines in blood serum using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. A healthy pregnancy outcome was the absence of fetal death, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, caesarian section, preterm birth, large-for-gestational-age at birth, macrosomia, postpartum weight retention and offspring overweight/obesity at 5 years. Maternal age, relationship status, parity, early-pregnancy body mass index, mid-pregnancy gestational weight gain, systolic blood pressure and estimated fetal weight were selected into the model using backward selection (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve: 0.65 (95% confidence interval 0.61 to 0.68)). Early-pregnancy metabolites did not improve model performance. Thus, in women with obesity or who are overweight, maternal characteristics can moderately predict a healthy pregnancy outcome. Maternal early-pregnancy metabolites have no incremental value in the prediction of a healthy pregnancy outcome.
