The Camden Study was originally initiated to examine nutritional status, growth, and birth outcomes in adolescent pregnancies and expanded to study dietary and molecular predictors of pregnancy complications and birth outcomes in young women. Methods: From 1985\u20132006, 4765 pregnant participants aged 12 years and older were recruited from Camden, NJ, one of the poorest cities in the US. The cohort reflects a population under-represented in perinatal cohort studies (45% Hispanic, 38% non-Hispanic Black, 17% White participants; 98% using Medicaid in pregnancy). Study visits, including questionnaires, dietary assessments, and biospecimen collection, occurred in early and late pregnancy as well as at delivery. Medical records were abstracted, and a subset of mothers and infants participated in a six-week postpartum visit. Results: Findings from the Camden Study have added to the understanding of adolescent and young adult maternal health and perinatal outcomes. These include associations of adolescent linear growth while pregnant with smaller neonatal birth size, low dietary zinc intake in early pregnancy with increased risk of delivery &lt;33 gestational weeks, and higher circulating fatty acid levels with greater insulin resistance. More recent analyses have begun to unpack the biochemical pathways in pregnancy that may be shaped by race as an indicator of systemic racism. Conclusions: The Camden Study data and biorepositories are well-positioned to support future research aimed at better understanding perinatal health in under-represented women and infants. Linkages to subsequent health and administrative records and the potential for recontacting participants over 18\u201339 years after initial participation may provide key insights into the trajectories of maternal and child health across the life course.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu16244372","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,19]],"date-time":"2024-12-19T03:59:43Z","timestamp":1734580783000},"page":"4372","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Camden Study\u2014A Pregnancy Cohort Study of Pregnancy Complications and Birth Outcomes in Camden, New Jersey, USA"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2944-3406","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stephanie","family":"Shiau","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0550-3662","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xinhua","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics\/Gynecology, Rowan-Virtua School of Osteopathic Medicine, Rowan University, Stratford, NJ 08084, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3341-4464","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ayana","family":"April-Sanders","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ellen","family":"Francis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2587-4022","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shristi","family":"Rawal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical and Preventive Nutrition Sciences, School of Health Professions, Rutgers University, Newark, NJ 07107, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Megan","family":"Hansel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kehinde","family":"Adeyemi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zorimar","family":"Rivera-N\u00fa\u00f1ez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"},{"name":"Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily","family":"Barrett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, Rutgers School of Public Health, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"},{"name":"Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Kuh, D., and Hardy, R.
