Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of physical activity during pregnancy on neonatal health outcomes. The results showed that adherence to physical activity recommendations had no significant association with neonatal outcomes at birth, and there were no significant associations with sociodemographic and lifestyle variables. There is a need to explore attitudes related to negative physical activity behavior in order to reduce the incidence of sedentary lifestyle-related comorbidities during pregnancy.

Summary: The study showed that adult weight gain is associated with specific metabolomic alterations, including an increase in adipocyte volume and changes in lipoprotein categories. There is a significant positive correlation between weight gain and adipocyte volume.

Summary: The study revealed that in vitro fertilization has long-lasting sex-specific effects on the metabolic health of offspring, with females conceived through IVF showing higher body weight and cholesterol levels, while males having higher triglycerides and insulin levels, as well as increased body fat composition.

Summary: Although there are differences among second-generation antipsychotics in terms of the risk of metabolic disorders, none of the drugs included in the review are completely free of these disturbances. Some studies suggest that the occurrence of a metabolic disorder acts as a risk factor for the development of other metabolic disorders, while treatment duration could also play a relevant role in the occurrence of these disorders.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the effects of two different exercise interventions during pregnancy on gestational weight gain (GWG) and obstetric and neonatal outcomes compared to standard care. The results showed that structured supervised exercise training and motivational counselling on physical activity did not affect GWG or obstetric and neonatal outcomes.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of agave fructan bioconjugates in a rat model with metabolic syndrome. The results showed that the bioconjugates of agave fructans with laurate significantly decreased glucose levels, systolic pressure, weight gain, and visceral adipose tissue, while also inhibiting pancreatic lipase. These findings demonstrate the potential of agave bioconjugates, particularly laurate bioconjugates, for preventing diseases associated with metabolic syndrome.

Summary: This economic evaluation found that providing access to structured diet and physical activity lifestyle interventions for all pregnant Australian women was estimated to provide strong return on investment for health funders. The open-source model developed can be used by other jurisdictions and health services to explore cost implications of implementation within their patient population.
