REPOSITORY PULL FOR PEAS GENETICS 2019

背景/导言 妊娠期饮食属性研究（PEAS）检查了食物奖励敏感性和食物奖励值在妊娠期和产后体重变化和饮食摄入中的作用。该研究调查了食物奖励在行为控制和饮食行为的其他相关方面的重要性，以及与体重相关的生物医学，心理社会和行为因素，包括遗传学，体力活动，压力，睡眠和抑郁症。这项研究的总体目标是加深对饮食行为决定因素的了解，以开发和测试改善孕产妇饮食和控制体重变化的干预措施，最终改善孕产妇和儿童的健康轨迹。本项目的目的是在怀孕和产后饮食和体重变化的背景下，调查与味觉和食物奖励敏感性相关的遗传多态性 范围 该项目需要将大约458个样本运送到明尼苏达大学实验室。

BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION The Pregnancy Eating Attributes Study (PEAS) examines the role of food reward sensitivity and food reward value in weight change and dietary intake during pregnancy and postpartum. The study investigates the importance of food reward in the context of behavioral control and other related aspects of eating behavior, as well as weight-related biomedical, psychosocial and behavioral factors including genetics, physical activity, stress, sleep and depression. The overarching goal of this research is to advance understanding of the determinants of eating behavior to develop and test interventions for improving maternal diet and controlling weight change, ultimately leading to improved maternal and child health trajectories. The purpose of this project is to investigate the genetic polymorphisms related to taste and food reward sensitivity in the context of pregnancy and postpartum diet and weight change SCOPE This project requires shipping approximately 458 samples to the University of Minnesota lab.
