Abstract:Obesity has become a global public health problem.In recent years,increasing epidemiological evidence suggests that maternal obesity during pregnancy may not only cause adverse pregnancy outcomes,damage her own health and the health of fetus,but also cause varying degrees of health damage to offspring and impose a significant disease burden on society.This paper reviews the progress of epidemiological studies on the effects of maternal obesity on long-term adverse health outcomes in offspring,in order to provide a basis for developing related prevention strategies.
