Association Between Maternal #Caffeine Consumption and Metabolism and Neonatal Anthropometry
Higher caffeine consumption during pregnancy has been associated with lower birth weight. However, associations of caffeine consumption, based on both plasma concentrations of caffeine and its metabolites, and self-reported caffeinated beverage intake, with multiple measures of neonatal anthropometry, have yet to be examined. Objective To evaluate the association between maternal caffeine intake and neonatal anthropometry, …
