From:BMC Research Notes (Vol. 11, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedObjective Previously we found that certain fetal imprinted genes represented as an allele score are associated with maternal pregnancy glucose concentrations. Recently it was reported that fetal polymorphisms with...

From:Diabetes (Vol. 53, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedPolymorphism of the insulin gene (INS) variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR; class I or class III alleles) locus has been associated with adult diseases and with birth size. Therefore, this variant is a potential...

From:BMC Research Notes (Vol. 14, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedObjective Previously we observed that maternal multiple micronutrient supplementation in pregnancy was associated with increased offspring size at birth and adiposity, as well as with maternal gestational diabetes...

From:Diabetes Care (Vol. 30, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedSize at birth is strongly related to a number of maternal factors including parity, length of gestation, mother's adult size, and mother's own birth weight (1). The importance of genetic factors has come from studies of...

From:Diabetes (Vol. 59, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE--We have hypothesized that variation in imprinted growth-promoting fetal genes may affect maternal glucose concentrations in pregnancy. To test this hypothesis we evaluated the effects of fetal disruption of...

From:Diabetes (Vol. 60, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE--To test the hypothesis that polymorphic variation in the paternally transmitted fetal IGF2 gene is associated with maternal glucose concentrations in the third trimester of pregnancy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND...

From:Diabetes (Vol. 55, Issue 5) Peer-ReviewedIn adults, lower circulating levels of the adipocyte-derived hormone adiponectin are associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease risks. Its use as a risk marker in children is less clear. In 839...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 15, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedThis study examined the socio-demographic factors associated with normal linear growth among pre-school children living in better-off households, using survey data from Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Mozambique and Democratic...

From:Diabetes (Vol. 52, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedIncreased hepatic gluconeogenesis maintains glycemia during fasting and has been considered responsible for elevated hepatic glucose output in type 2 diabetes. Glucose derived periportally via gluconeogenesis is...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 15, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedIntroduction BMI is a tool to measure maternal nutritional status. Maternal malnutrition is frequently reported health problem especially during child bearing age and effects neonatal birth weight. Aim To...
