Background: The health status of newborns is a major concern for parents and medical personnel. Recent studies have provided increasing evidence that factors from the foetal and perinatal periods of life influence health later in life. The “Follow-up of the Survey of Neonates in Pomerania” (SNiP-I-Follow-up) is the first follow-up of the population-based birth cohort study, SNiP-I, established in north-east Germany.

The associations will be analysed between risk factors in pregnancy and the perinatal period and health status in infancy and later childhood. Population: The population-based cohort study SNiP-I was conducted in Pomerania in north-east Germany between February 2002 and November 2008. All mothers from the SNiP-I birth cohort were recontacted when their children were from 9 to 15 years of age.

Preliminary results: Out of 5725 children invited to participate in the SNiP-IFollow- up study between December 2016 and ...
