Study of alcohol exposure effects in unborn babies
Treatments studied
Part of Genetic & congenital, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at unborn babies exposed to alcohol during pregnancy and compares them with babies not exposed. Researchers test a pregnancy blood marker to see whether it may relate to early brain changes in the baby.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant (one baby or twins) and you are at least 18 years old
