Study how pregnancy affects airway inflammation in babies
Part of Genetic & congenital, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how different pregnancy and birth factors may contribute to airway inflammation in infants who wheeze or have lung conditions. It may help researchers understand why some babies get ongoing breathing problems and how early influences could be linked.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born at full term (38–42 weeks) OR before 37 weeks
- If born early, your baby must fit a specific early-lung condition or higher-risk pregnancy situation
- At least one parent can speak German or French well enough to join the study
- You will need to sign written consent for your baby to take part
- You can be a smoking household (for both parents), and allergies may be present

This study follows children with wheezing (in younger kids) or doctor-diagnosed asthma (in older kids). It aims to better understand asthma and related breathing problems and how they develop over time.
This study looks at how the gut and lungs affect breathing problems in children. It compares samples from children with and without respiratory illnesses to understand why some children get sicker than others.
This study looks at the natural bacteria and germs in a premature baby's airways to see if they can help predict whether the baby will develop a lung problem called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The goal is to find early clues that help doctors take better care of these babies.
This study follows full-term babies from birth to 12 months to see if allergies affect breathing problems. It may help doctors understand and prevent respiratory issues in infants.
This study looks for biological markers in the mother's blood that might predict how exposure to inflammation during pregnancy could change a baby's brain development. The goal is to understand these effects in healthy pregnancies and those with certain inflammatory conditions.
This study looks at how newborns’ bodies are affected by COVID-19 around birth and whether a breathing support treatment (inhaled nitric oxide) changes outcomes. It also compares COVID-exposed babies and a similar group of babies without COVID who are not receiving the breathing treatment.
