Abstract: The NHANES Birth Certificate Linkage Study for pregnant women represents a cost and time effective opportunity to gather data that can be used to examine the relationship between maternal health and exposures during pregnancy and the later health of her child. This project will combine maternal characteristics measured during the NHANES exam, information from the child's birth certificate, and subsequent information about the child. This requests a two year approval.
