CO25: Inflammation and metabolic syndrome in pregnancy
The CO25 group is dedicated to research in Maternal-Fetal Medicine and is made up of a group of Specialist Doctors from the Clinical Management Units of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Clinical Analysis at Hospital Universitario Puerta del Mar Cádiz the Jerez Hospital, with several members belonging to the University of Cádiz Maternal-Child and Radiology Department) and complemented by a group of Basic Researchers in Biomedicine (Biochemists and Biologists) linked to the Foundation for the Management of Biomedical Research in Cádiz. This is a multidisciplinary Team with a clear translational focus: gynecology and obstetrics, nursing, pharmacy, biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, and clinical analysis.
Our research focuses on the pathophysiological basis of obstetric complications, primarily those related to inflammation and metabolic syndrome (obesity, pregestational diabetes, gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, preterm birth, intrauterine growth restriction), with the aim of offering these pregnant women better methods of prevention, diagnosis, and/or treatment, given that these pathologies not only have repercussions during pregnancy, but also have future repercussions on their health and that of their children.
