CLARITY is an observational study whereby participants will attend one 4-hr visit the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, University of Oxford at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, with the option to split the study visit over two days for convenience. Participants will be invited by the ALSPAC study team to attend a study visit in Oxford where the investigators will use MRI and other imaging modalities to study the brain, heart, liver, kidneys, and vasculature using standardised protocols. A dataset including information from previous follow-up of these cohorts and the detailed pregnancy data available within ALSPAC will be generated by the study team in Bristol and integrated with available data from the Oxford cohorts.
