Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been a recent decrease in the prevalence of infectious diseases in children worldwide due to the usage of vaccines. However, the association between cesarean delivery and infectious diseases remains unclear. Here, we aimed to clarify the association between cesarean delivery and the development of infectious diseases. METHODS This study is a cross-sectional study. We used data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, which is a prospective, nationwide, government-funded birth cohort study. The data of 104,065 records were included. Information about the mode of delivery, central nervous system infection (CNSI), otitis media (OM), upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), gastrointestinal infection (GI), and urinary tract infection (UTI) was obtained from questionnaires and medical records transcripts. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between cesarean delivery and CNSI, OM, URTI, LRTI, GI, and UTI risk. RESULTS We included a total of 74,477 subjects in this study, of which 18.4% underwent cesarean deliveries. After adjusting for the perinatal, socioeconomic, and postnatal confounding factors, children born by cesarean delivery did not have an increased risk of developing CNSI (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.46-1.35), OM (95% CI 0.99-1.12), URTI (95% CI 0.97-1.06), LRTI (95% CI 0.98-1.15), GI (95% CI 0.98-1.11), or UTI (95% CI 0.95-1.45). CONCLUSIONS This nationwide cohort study did not find an association between cesarean delivery and CNSI, OM, URTI, LRTI, GI, and UTI. However, further studies are needed to evaluate the role of cesarean delivery in the development of infectious diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few prospective cohort studies have examined the association between maternal diabetes, including pre-pregnancy and gestational diabetes, and the risk of congenital heart disease (CHD) in Asian offspring. METHODS We examined the association between maternal diabetes and offspring CHD among 97,094 mother-singleton infant pairs in the Japan Environment and Children's Study (JECS) between January 2011 and March 2014. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of offspring CHD based on maternal diabetes (pre-pregnancy diabetes and gestational diabetes) were estimated using logistic regression after adjusting for maternal age at delivery, pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), maternal smoking habits, alcohol consumption, annual household income, and maternal education. The diagnosis of CHD in the offspring was ascertained from the transcript of medical records. RESULTS The incidence of CHD in the offspring was 1,132. Maternal diabetes, including both pre-pregnancy diabetes and gestational diabetes, was associated with a higher risk of offspring CHD: multivariable OR (95%CI) = 1.81 (1.40-2.33) for maternal diabetes, 2.39 (1.05-5.42) for pre-pregnancy diabetes and 1.77 (1.36-2.30) for gestational diabetes. A higher risk of offspring CHD was observed in pre-pregnancy BMI ≥25.0 kg/m2 (OR = 2.55, 95% CI: 1.74-3.75) than in pre-pregnancy BMI <25.0 kg/m2 (OR = 1.49, 95% CI: 1.05-2.10, p for interaction = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Maternal diabetes, including both pre-pregnancy and gestational, was associated with an increased risk of CHD in offspring.

Abstract
Purpose It is difficult to change pre-pregnancy eating habits, yet establishing healthy eating habits before pregnancy is important for preventing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). This study aimed to examine whether the weight-loss behavior of avoiding between-meal and midnight snacking in teenagers is associated with a reduction in the risk of subsequent GDM. Methods We used a dataset (jecs-an-20,180,131) from a nationwide, prospective birth cohort study, the Japan Environment and Children's Study (JECS). We included 89,227 (85.7% of the total) mother-infant pairs with live births. Participants in their second or third trimester were asked to report their weight-loss behavior during their teenage years. The prevalence of GDM was investigated. Differences in maternal characteristics were examined using chi-square tests. Crude and adjusted logistic regression models were constructed to assess the associations of various maternal characteristics with the weight-loss behavior of avoiding between-meal and midnight snacking during teenage years. Results A total of 2,066 (2.3%) participants had GDM. Weight-loss behavior in teenagers was associated with a decreased risk of GDM. Among participants with normal weight or overweight prior to pregnancy, the adjusted odds ratios were 0.79 (95% confidence interval, 0.70-0.89) and 0.82 (95% confidence interval, 0.69-0.98), respectively. Conclusions The results suggest that teenage weight-loss behaviors, such as avoiding between-meal and midnight snacking, are associated with a decreased risk of developing GDM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tobacco exposure during pregnancy is associated with several adverse outcomes in infants. We investigated the association between tobacco exposure during pregnancy (both active and second-hand) and various infections in infants up to 1 year. METHODS This prospective cohort study used a fixed dataset (jecs-an-20180131) from the Japan Environment and Children's Study of registered births in Japan during 2011-2014 that included 104,065 fetal records from enrolled pregnant women. Based on the participants' responses to the questionnaire on smoking status, mothers were first divided into "never smoked," "quit smoking," and "current smoker" groups and then into "no second-hand smoking (SHS)" and "SHS" groups. Infectious diseases included central nervous system infection, otitis media (OM), upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), gastroenteritis (GI), and urinary tract infection. Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using logistic regression analysis and adjusted for maternal, socioeconomic, and postnatal confounding factors. RESULTS Among the 73,205 newborns enrolled, multivariable analysis revealed that the aOR of LRTI and GI was 1.20 (95% CI, 1.07-1.33) and 1.18 (95% CI, 1.04-1.35), respectively, for the "current smoker with/without SHS" group compared with the "never smoked without SHS" group. "Quit smoking without SHS" was not associated with the risk of LRTI. SHS was associated with an increased risk of OM, URTI, LRTI, and GI, especially with LRTI and GI. CONCLUSION Exposure to tobacco smoke during pregnancy was associated with an increased risk of OM, URTI, LRTI, and GI in infants during their first year of life.

Abstract
The sex of the conceived child is a significant concern for parents. To verify whether there women have pregnancy bias toward boys or girls, we investigated whether the history of continuous same-sex pregnancy was associated with the subsequent child's sex. We prospectively analyzed data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, a birth cohort study. We included all cases of singleton live births (n = 98 412). Women with pregnancy due to infertility treatment were excluded (n = 6255); Similarly, women with a history of miscarriage, artificial abortion, stillbirth, and multiple pregnancies, and those with missing data on the sex of the previous child were excluded. Altogether, 62 718 women were included. For the first live birth, a male-biased sex ratio of 1.055 was observed. Further, no significant difference was found in the sex ratio of the conceived child between women with one boy and those with one girl previously. However, when there were more than two children previously, the subsequently conceived child's male/female sex ratio was significantly higher among boy-only mothers than among girl-only mothers. The results indicated that several pregnant women are biased toward conceiving either boys or girls.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low birth weight (LBW), small for gestational age (SGA), and preterm birth (PTB) are important neonatal outcomes that may affect infant morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to investigate associations between maternal hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations and pregnancy outcomes of LBW, SGA, and PTB. METHODS This was a prospective birth cohort study using data of the Japan Environment and Children's Study. Participants were divided into five groups according to maternal Hb (g/dL) in the first and second trimesters: group 1, Hb < 9; group 2, 9 ≤ Hb < 11.0; group 3, 11.0 ≤ Hb < 13.0; group 4, 13.0 < Hb < 14.0; and group 5, 14.0 ≤ Hb. We examined the relationships between LBW, PTB, SGA, and maternal Hb in the first and second trimesters. RESULTS Excluding 29,673, a total of 74,392 newborns (first trimester: n = 39,084, second trimester: n = 35,308) were included. We obtained adjusted odds ratios (aORs) (95% confidence intervals (CIs)) using multivariate analysis; compared with group 3 in the first trimesters, women in group 1 were at increased risk of PTB (aOR, 3.20; 95% CI, 1.69-6.09), LBW (aOR, 2.21; 95% CI, 1.19-4.09). In the second trimester, multivariate analysis revealed that, compared with group 3 in the second trimester, women in group 1 were at increased risk of PTB (aOR, 2.30; 95% CI, 1.19-4.42) and women in group 5 were at increased risk of LBW (aOR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.24-2.81) and PTB (aOR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.06-2.83). CONCLUSIONS Elevated maternal Hb in the second trimester was associated with risks of PTB and LBW.

Abstract
We aimed to examine the impact of a preconception pro-inflammatory diet on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) using singleton pregnancy data from the Japan Environment and Children’s Study involving live births from 2011 to 2014. Individual meal patterns before pregnancy were used to calculate the dietary inflammatory index (DII). Participants were categorized according to DII quartiles 1−4 (Q1 and Q4 had the most pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory diets, respectively). The participants were stratified into five groups by pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI): G1 to G5 (<18.5 kg/m2, 18.5 to <20.0 kg/m2, 20.0 to <23.0 kg/m2, 23.0 to <25.0 kg/m2, and ≥25.0 kg/m2, respectively). A multiple logistic regression model was used to estimate the effect of the anti-inflammatory diet on GDM, early diagnosed (Ed)-GDM, and late diagnosed (Ld)-GDM in each BMI group. Trend analysis showed that the risk of GDM, Ed-GDM, and Ld-GDM increased with increased pre-pregnancy BMI values. In the G4 group, the risk of Ed-GDM increased in Q2 and Q4. This study suggests that, although higher maternal BMI increases the risk of GDM, the effect of a preconception pro-inflammatory diet on the occurrence of GDM depends on pre-pregnancy BMI. This result may facilitate personalized preconception counseling based on maternal BMI.

Abstract
Inadequate maternal iodine intake affects thyroid function and may impair fetal brain development. This study investigated the association between maternal iodine intake during pregnancy and neurodevelopmental delay in offspring at 1 and 3 years of age using a nationwide birth cohort: the Japan Environment and Children’s Study. We assessed dietary iodine intake during pregnancy using a food frequency questionnaire and child neurodevelopment using the Japanese translation of the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, Third Edition. The risk of delay (score below the cut-off value) for fine motor domain at 1 year of age was increased in the lowest quintile iodine intake group compared with the fourth quintile iodine intake group. The risk of delay for problem-solving at 1 year of age was increased in the lowest and second quintile iodine intake group and decreased in the highest quintile iodine intake group. The risk of delay for communication, fine motor, problem-solving, and personal–social domains at 3 years of age was increased in the lowest and second quintile iodine intake group compared with the fourth quintile iodine intake group, while the risk of delay for fine motor and problem-solving domains was decreased in the highest quintile iodine intake group. Low iodine intake levels in pregnancy may affect child neurodevelopment.

Abstract
Skin inflammation leads to altered cytokine/chemokine production and causes systemic inflammation. The systemic mechanism of atopic dermatitis (AD) is recognized to affect systemic metabolism. This study aimed to examine the relationship between early-onset persistent eczema and body weight, height, and body mass index (BMI), in addition to food allergy in a birth cohort among infants. This study design was a nationwide, multicenter, prospective birth cohort study-the Japan Environment and Children's Study (JECS). Generalized linear models were fitted for z scores of weight, height, BMI, and food allergy to evaluate the relationship between eczema and these outcomes for infants at age1, 2, and 3 years. Persistent eczema was negatively associated with height at the age of 2 years (estimated coefficient, -0.127; 95% confidence interval [CI], -0.16 to -0.095) and 3 years (-0.177; 95% CI, -0.214 to -0.139). The same tendency was also observed with weight and BMI. Early disease onset at younger than 1 year and persistent eczema had the strongest association with development of food allergy at age 3 years (OR, 11.794; 95% CI, 10.721-12.975). One phenotype of eczema with early-onset and persistent disease creates a risk of both physical growth impairment and development of food allergy. Infants who present with the early-onset and persistent type of eczema should be carefully evaluated daily for impaired physical growth and development of food allergy.

Abstract
Objective Placental abruption is a significant obstetric complication that affects both maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. The present study examined the effect of maternal age on the incidence of placental abruption. Methods We used data of singleton pregnancies from the Japan Environment and Children’s Study, which was a prospective birth cohort study conducted between January 2011 and March 2014 across 15 regional centers in Japan. A multiple regression model was used to identify whether maternal age (<20 years, 20–24 years, 25–29 years, 30–34 years, and ≥35 years) is a risk factor for placental abruption. The analyses were conducted while considering the history of placental abruption, assisted reproductive technology, number of previous deliveries, smoking during pregnancy, body mass index before pregnancy, and chronic hypertension. Results A total of 94,410 Japanese women (93,994 without placental abruption and 416 with placental abruption) were recruited. Herein, 764, 8421, 25915, 33517, and 25793 women were aged <20 years, 20–24 years, 25–29 years, 30–34 years, and ≥35 years, respectively. Besides advanced maternal age (≥35 years; adjusted odds ratio: 1.7, 95% confidence interval: 1.1–2.5), teenage pregnancy was also a risk factor for placental abruption (adjusted odds ratio: 2.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.2–6.5) when the maternal age of 20–24 years was set as a reference. Conclusions In the Japanese general population, besides advanced maternal age, teenage pregnancy was associated with placental abruption. Recently, the mean maternal age has been changing in Japan. Therefore, it is important for obstetric care providers to provide proper counseling to young women based on up-to-date evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of mothers' and fathers' educational levels in separate evaluations of asthma has not been fully investigated. This study aims to examine the associations of the mother's and fathers' educational levels with childhood wheeze and asthma adjusting for crude and pre-and post-natal modifiable risk factors. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study using data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, which recruited pregnant women from 2011 to 2014. The mother's and father's educational levels were surveyed by a questionnaire during the pregnancy, and childhood wheezing and doctor-diagnosed asthma were estimated using a 3-year questionnaire. Multilevel logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between the mother's and father's educational levels and childhood wheezing and asthma, adjusted for pre-and post-natal factors. RESULTS A total of 69,607 pairs of parents and their single infants were analyzed. We found 17.3% of children had wheezing and 7.7% had asthma. In crude analyses, lower educational level of parents was associated with an increased risk of childhood wheezing and asthma. After full adjustment, a lower educational level of mothers was associated with an increased risk of childhood asthma (junior high school (reference: high school); odds ratio (OR): 1.17, 95% CI, 1.01-1.36), and higher educational level, especially the mother's, was associated with an increased risk of childhood wheezing (technical junior college, technical/vocational college, or associate degree (ECD3); OR: 1.12, 95% CI, 1.06-1.18, bachelor's degree, or postgraduate degree; OR: 1.10, 95% CI, 1.03-1.18), and asthma (ECD3; OR: 1.13, 95% CI, 1.04-1.21). CONCLUSIONS Parents' lower educational level was a crude risk factor for childhood wheezing and asthma. However, an increased risk of wheezing due to mothers' higher educational level was found after adjusting for pre-and post-natal factors.

Abstract
We aimed to examine the impact of a daily pro-inflammatory diet during pregnancy on intrapartum fetal acidemia using a large birth cohort study in Japan. We used data on singleton pregnancies in the Japan Environment and Children’s Study (JECS) involving births from 2011 to 2014 through vaginal delivery to calculate the maternal dietary inflammatory index (DII). Participants were categorized according to DII quintiles. A multiple logistic regression model was used to estimate the risk of a pro-inflammatory diet on fetal umbilical artery pH. In total, 56,490 participants were eligible for this study. Multiple regression analysis showed that nulliparous women who had undergone vaginal delivery and were consuming a pro-inflammatory diet had an increased risk of pH < 7.10 (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 1.64, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12–2.39). Among these women, the risk of pH < 7.10 was not affected by the duration of labor (aOR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.11–2.42). In conclusion, following a pro-inflammatory diet during pregnancy is a risk factor for fetal acidosis among nulliparous women undergoing vaginal delivery. A high DII diet during pregnancy may modify the intrapartum fetal heart rate pattern via intrauterine inflammation.
