Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The Ma'anshan Birth Cohort (MABC) is a population-based prospective pregnancy and birth cohort study that aims to explore the early environmental and genetic determinants of maternal and child health, with a focus on health outcomes including maternal health, children's cognitive and behavioral development, growth and physical development, video-screen behaviors, and asthma and allergic diseases. MABC was officially launched in May 2013 at the Ma'anshan Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Anhui Province, and a total of 3,474 families were recruited as of September 2014 to continuously track the health status of mother-child pairs during pregnancy, delivery, and childhood, including basic family demographics, maternal pregnancy and birth history and past history, history of exposure to hazardous factors during pregnancy, children's diets and lifestyles, and children's physical and cognitive-behavioral development, MABC quantifies the attributional relationship between environmental chemicals, diet and nutrition, drug safety, psychological stress, lifestyle, biorhythm, endocrine metabolism and adverse birth outcomes, birth defects, neurodevelopmental disorders, developmental disabilities, etc., and identifies environmental, behavioral and genetic causative factors for birth defects and common developmental disorders, and identifies early warning signs and symptoms for early detection of birth defects. genetic causative factors, identify clinical biomarkers with early predictive effects, integrate and form a precise risk evaluation and early warning model, carry out regional comprehensive prevention and treatment applications, and promote the improvement of the quality of the birth population. Currently, MABC is conducting its 20th school-age follow-up visit.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
