Cohort Profile: PRECISE-DYAD: a prospective cohort study linking maternal and infant health trajectories in sub-Saharan Africa.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The PRECISE-DYAD study is a prospective observational cohort, designed to investigate health outcomes among mother-child pairs (dyads), over the first three years of life in two contexts from sub-Saharan Africa. The primary objective of the study was to explore the effects of selected placenta-related complications, such as pregnancy hypertension, fetal growth restriction, and preterm birth, on 1) child health and development, and 2) women's health and well-being, including outcomes after stillbirth.

Participants

The PRECISE-DYAD study enrolled women (and their children) originally recruited into the PRECISE regnancy cohort study in The Gambia and Kenya between July 2021 and April 2024. Participants were seen at 6 weeks to 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, and 36 month
