Abstract

The Upstate KIDS Follow-Up study began contacting all participants in October 2015 for continuing the study in the this new follow-up phase. A data coordinating center (DCC) developed a new website for online data collection and data management. Clinic visits were completed in Fall 2019. At clinic visits participants had measurements made of anthropometry, body fat by bioelectrical impedance, lung inflammation, blood pressure, arterial stiffness by pulse wave velocity and collection of urine, blood and saliva. Both primary papers on ART and cardio-metabolic risk and DNA methylation were published. The cohort is now being used to investigate longitudinal links between early exposures and growth, health, and development in middle childhood.
