Malnutrition continues to be a major threat to health, particularly maternal and child health in low resource settings, resulting in impairments in cognitive function, growth, and development, and metabolic diseases later in life. Nutritional assessment is a cornerstone of any successful nutrition intervention or program whether in the community or at the clinic. Improved computational power and advances in technology may enable precision nutrition-based approaches for maternal and child health, which can complement current methods for nutritional assessment to identify clinical, biochemical, microbiome-related, social, and environmental characteristics to predict responses to nutritional interventions or programs. Precision nutrition has the potential to complement program monitoring, efficacy evaluation, and ultimately to inform design of interventions to improve maternal and child health.

Importance: Higher intellectual abilities have been associated with lower mortality risk in several longitudinal cohort studies. However, these studies did not fully account for early life contextual factors or test whether the beneficial associations between higher neurocognitive functioning and mortality extend to children exposed to early adversity.
Objective: To explore how the associations of child neurocognition with mortality changed according to the patterns of adversity children experienced.

Housing insecurity is a key social determinant of a wide range of health outcomes, subject to large racial inequities, and with a likely sensitive period in childhood. Housing insecurity can manifest in multiple ways and change over time, but previous studies have primarily focused on single dimensions or a single time point. This study examines cumulative exposure to multiple forms of housing insecurity from birth to adolescence, overall, and by race in large US cities.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented global challenges. Amid the crisis, the potential impact of COVID-19 exposure on the neurodevelopment of offspring born to infected mothers emerged as a critical concern. This is a prospective cohort study of pregnant women and their offspring enrolled in the Signature project at Hospital Universitario Virgen del Rocio in Seville, Spain, between 01/01/2024 and 08/31/2022.
