The number and timing of stressors experienced during pregnancy were investigated using longitudinal data from the Western Australian Pregnancy (Raine) Study cohort ( N = 2,900). Motor development collected at 10 n 1,622), 14 1,584), 17 1,222) years McCarron Assessment Neuromuscular Development. Linear mixed models used to examine effect stress on motor development, accounting for repeated measures. Number stressful events mean Development Index negatively related (β −1.197, p .001)....
Abstract Aim Few studies have reported on early life risk factors for motor development outcomes past childhood. Antenatal, perinatal and neonatal affecting from late childhood to adolescence were explored. As sex differences in been previously reported, males females examined separately. Methods Participants (n = 2868) the Western Australian Pregnancy Cohort Study. Obstetric data determine related at 10 1622), 14 1584) 17 1221) years. The Neuromuscular Development Index ( NDI ) of McCarron...
Introduction Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH), an autosomal dominant disorder of lipid metabolism, results in accelerated onset atherosclerosis if left untreated. Lifelong treatment with diet, lifestyle modifications and statins enable a normal lifespan for most patients. Early diagnosis is critical. This protocol trials primary care-based model care (MoC) to improve detection management FH. Methods analysis Pragmatic cluster intervention study pre-post comparisons Australian general...
Multiple cohort studies have been established to investigate the impact of early life factors on development and health outcomes. In Australia majority these were more than 20 years ago and, although longitudinal in nature, are inherently susceptible socioeconomic, environmental cultural influences which change over time. Additionally, rapid leaps technology increased our understanding complex role gene-environment interactions course health, highlighting need for new with repeated...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Research in the developmental origins of health and disease provides compelling evidence that adverse events during first 1000 days life from conception can impact course health. Despite many decades research, we still lack a complete understanding mechanisms underlying some these associations. The Newcastle Study (NEW1000) is comprehensive, prospective population-based pregnancy cohort study based Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, will recruit pregnant...
Background Research in the developmental origins of health and disease provides compelling evidence that adverse events during first 1000 days life from conception can impact course health.

Objectives Research to develop early screening tools determine an individual’s risk of developing adult-onset disease is a growing field. Expectant parents may find themselves with option in the future undergo not only genetic abnormalities their child but also non-communicable diseases (NCD) such as hypertension, obesity or hypercholesterolaemia. To ensure acceptability and feasibility new researchers must work partnership healthcare consumers discern consumers’ current understanding...
