挪威母婴队列研究 (MoBa) 是一项持续进行的长期前瞻性队列研究，对象为 107,000 名挪威孕妇及其子女。 NIEHS 与挪威国家公共卫生研究所 (NIPH) 合作，支持从孕妇身上收集更多生物样本（血液和尿液）。这些样本将用于测量环境暴露。收集婴儿、母亲和父亲的各种暴露和健康变量。队列研究的记录也将与常规的国家卫生登记处联系起来。 挪威母婴队列研究为评估环境暴露对妇女及其子女健康的作用提供了宝贵的机会。

The Norwegian Mother & Child Cohort Study (MoBa) is an ongoing long-term prospective cohort study of 107,000 pregnant Norwegian women and their children. In collaboration with the Norwegian National Public Health Institute (NIPH), NIEHS is supporting the collection of additional biologic specimens from the pregnant women (blood and urine). These specimens will be used for the measurement of environmental exposures. A variety of exposure and health variables on babies, mothers and fathers are collected. Records from the cohort study will also be linked to routine national health registries. The Norwegian Mother & Child Cohort Study provides a valuable opportunity to assess the role of environmental exposures in the health of women and their children.
