The given text provides information on the China Southwest Birth Cohort (CSBC) research project, which focuses on the relationship between various factors and a child's risk of birth defects and diseases. The cohort includes the Yi population and people in Chongqing and Chengdu as representative samples. The cohort consists of 20,730 pregnant women enrolled from May 2018 to December 2020, with follow-ups conducted during pregnancy and every 6 months until the child is 3 years old. The CSBC aims to validate and explore maternal and infant-related health issues, assess risk factors, and propose intervention strategies. The text also includes a table comparing the characteristics of families who were lost to follow-up after birth with those who were followed up, providing valuable insights for researchers.
