Abstract: Aims/hypothesis The aim of this work was to investigate the association of maternal HbA 1c during mid-pregnancy with biomarkers of glucose–insulin homeostasis during early childhood (4–7 years of age) and to assess whether and how offspring… read more here.

Abstract: Greater maternal adiposity before or during pregnancy is associated with greater offspring adiposity throughout childhood, but the extent to which this is due to causal intrauterine or periconceptional mechanisms remains unclear. Here, we use Mendelian… read more here.
