Maternal anemia during pregnancy and slightly higher risk of asthma in male offspring

Abstract: Male offspring with maternal anemia during the first trimester of pregnancy had significantly more asthma ever than the offspring of women with normal hemoglobin levels during pregnancy. These findings were not strong but suggest possible sex-specific effects of maternal health on prenatal programming and future risk of asthma.

“…Reductions in iron concentrations during pregnancy are also linked to high rates of foetal growth restriction, as well as disturbances to blood pressure, iron storage (liver iron content) and haematocrit concentrations in offspring . Iron deficiency has even been linked to offspring conditions including asthma, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, kidney dysfunction and an altered metabolic profile . In contrast, iron supplementation has been shown to increase maternal risk of developing GDM, possibly through oxidative stress mechanisms .…”
