Long-term health, neurodevelopmental, and educational outcomes of children born to mothers with hyperemesis gravidarum: a population-based sibling-design record linkage cohort study
We did not find an association between HG exposure and long-term educational, neurodevelopmental, and health outcomes for children when accounting for shared family influences using a sibling-comparison design. The lack of evidence of a direct link between maternal HG and long-term impacts on children is reassuring for mothers who are afflicted with this condition.
