Clinical Research of Epidemiology in Pregnant Women

Dear Colleagues,

Clinical research addressing the epidemiology of disease in pregnant women has developed significantly over the recent years. Although performing interventional studies in pregnant women is challenging, epidemiologic assessments have significantly contributed to our knowledge of conditions that impact outcomes in pregnant women.

Epidemiologic clinical research in pregnant women has focused on the influence of pregnancy on chronic disease outcomes as well as the influence of chronic disease on pregnancy outcomes. In addition, epidemiologic trends over time have identified changes in the prevalence, severity, and impact of various conditions that occur in uniquely in pregnancy as well as conditions that may impact pregnancy care and outcomes.

This special issue provides an update on key clinical research topics that have addressed epidemiologic trends in pregnant women.
