Gestational weight trajectory and risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes among women with gestational diabetes mellitus: A retrospective cohort study. MATERNAL & CHILD NUTRITION 2024; 20:e13645. [PMID: 38517119 PMCID: PMC11168372 DOI: 10.1111/mcn.13645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore gestational weight gain (GWG) trajectories and their associations with adverse pregnancy outcomes. A retrospective cohort study including 11,064 women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) was conducted between 2015 and 2019 in China. The latent class trajectory model was used to identify GWG trajectories, and logistic regression was performed to examine odds ratio (OR) of pregnancy outcomes. Three trajectories of GWG were identified in these 11,604 women with GDM. Trajectory 1: 64.02% of women had sustained moderate GWG throughout pregnancy; Trajectory 2: 17.75% of women showed a high initial GWG but followed by a low GWG from the third trimester until delivery; Trajectory 3: 18.23% had low initial GWG but followed by drastic GWG from the second trimester until delivery. Compared with pregnant women with Trajectory 1, women with Trajectory 2 had a higher risk of large for gestational age (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 1.29, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-1.48) but at a lower risk of having hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (AOR: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.57-0.96). Women in Trajectory 3 were more likely to develop small for gestational age (AOR: 2.12, 95% CI: 1.62-2.78), low birthweight (AOR: 1.49, 95% CI: 1.07-2.08), preterm birth (AOR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.05-1.63), caesarean section (AOR: 1.26, 95% CI: 1.112-1.42) and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (AOR: 2.24, 95% CI: 1.82-2.76). The association of GWG trajectory with adverse pregnancy outcomes differs across prepregnancy body mass index and GWG categories. Women with a slow initial GWG but followed by drastic GWG had higher risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Early clinical recognition of poor GWG trajectory will contribute to early intervention in high-risk groups to minimise adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Maternal nutrition during pregnancy regulates the offspring's metabolic homeostasis, including insulin sensitivity and the metabolism of glucose and lipids. The fetus undergoes a crucial period of plasticity in the uterus; metabolic changes in the fetus during pregnancy caused by maternal nutrition not only influence fetal growth and development but also have a long-term or even life-long impact for the offspring. Epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNAs, play important roles in intergenerational and transgenerational effects. In this context, this narrative review comprehensively summarizes and analyzes the molecular mechanisms underlying how maternal nutrition, including a high-fat diet, polyunsaturated fatty acid diet, methyl donor nutrient supplementation, feed restriction, and protein restriction during pregnancy, impacts the genes involved in glucolipid metabolism in the liver, adipose tissue, hypothalamus, muscle, and oocytes of the offspring in terms of the epigenetic modifications. This will provide a foundation for the further exploration of nutrigenetic and epigenetic mechanisms for integrative mother-child nutrition and promotion of the offspring's health through the regulation of maternal nutrition during pregnancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the performance of maternal body fat index (BFI) assessed during the first 20+6 weeks among 138 pregnant women in an ultrasound outpatient clinic as a predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) later in pregnancy. METHOD Maternal visceral and subcutaneous fat was measured with a convex ultrasound probe placed in two locations on the maternal abdominal surface: the first in the mid-sagittal epigastric region, visualising epigastric fat, and the second 2cm above the maternal umbilical scar, visualising periumbilical fat. Ultrasound callipers measured the distance from dermal edge to the linea alba and after from the linea alba to the anterior hepatic surface (epigastric fat). Periumbilical fat was measured from the dermal edge to the linea alba and after from the linea alba to the anterior aortic surface. The BFI formula was [visceral adipose tissue (mm)×subcutaneous adipose tissue (mm)]/maternal height (cm). RESULTS The best thresholds for predicting GDM outcome for epigastric and periumbilical BFI were 1.2 and 4.8, respectively. Odds ratio, sensitivity and specificity were 5.88 (95% CI 1.86-18.6), 80.9%, 58.0% for the epigastric site and 6.31 (95% CI 1.73-22.94), 84.2%, 54.2% for the periumbilical site. Pre-pregnancy body mass index compatible with adult obesity shows inadequate predictive performance for GDM outcome. Only epigastric BFI above 1.2 maintained statistical significance for GDM in the logistic regression analysis, when compared to periumbilical BFI above 4.8. CONCLUSION Epigastric BFI above 1.2 during the first half of pregnancy may help identify women at risk of developing GDM later in pregnancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between the dimension of deviation from appropriate gestational weight gain (GWG) and adverse maternofetal outcomes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). METHODS We performed a multicentric retrospective study based on the Portuguese GDM Database. Women were classified as within GWG, insufficient (IGWG) or excessive (EGWG) than the Institute of Medicine recommendations. EGWG and IGWG were calculated for each prepregnancy BMI category. Large-for-gestational-age (LGA) and macrosomia were defined as a birthweight more than the 90th percentile for the gestational age and newborn weight greater than 4000 g, respectively. Logistic regression models (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] plus 95% confidence interval [95%CI]) were derived to evaluate the association between EGWG or IGWG and adverse maternofetal outcomes. RESULTS A total of 18961 pregnant women were included: 39.7% with IGWG and 27.8% with EGWG. An EGWG over 3 kg was associated with a higher risk of LGA infants (aOR 1.95, 95%CI 1.17-3.26) and macrosomia (aOR 2.01, 95%CI 1.23-3.27) in prepregnancy normal weight women. An EGWG greater than 4 kg was associated with a higher risk of LGA infants (aOR 1.67, 95%CI 1.23-2.23) and macrosomia (aOR 1.90, 95%CI 1.38-2.61) in obese women. In overweight women, an EGWG above 3.5 kg was associated with a higher risk of LGA infants (aOR 1.65, 95%CI 1.16-2.34), macrosomia (aOR 1.85, 95%CI 1.30-2.64), preeclampsia (aOR 2.40, 95%CI 1.45-3.98) and pregnancy-induced hypertension (aOR 2.21, 95%CI 1.52-3.21). An IGWG below -3.1 kg or -3kg was associated with a higher risk of small-for-gestational-age [SGA] infants in women with normal (OR 1.40, 95%CI 1.03-1.90) and underweight (OR 2.29, 95%CI 1.09-4.80), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Inappropriate gestational weight gain seems to be associated with an increased risk for adverse maternofetal outcomes, regardless of prepregnancy BMI. Beyond glycemic control, weight management in women with GDM must be a focus of special attention to prevent adverse pregnancy outcomes.KEY MESSAGESThe dimension of deviation from appropriate gestational weight gain was associated with an increased risk for adverse maternofetal outcomes among women with gestational diabetes.Weight management must be a focus of special attention in women with gestational diabetes to prevent adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cannabis is the main illicit psychoactive substance used in French childbearing women and very few data are available about adverse events (AEs) related to its use during pregnancy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between recreational cannabis use during pregnancy and adverse outcomes from a real-world clinical data warehouse. METHODS Data from the Poitiers University Hospital warehouse were analyzed between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2019. Logistic regression models were used to evaluate associations between outcomes in three prenatal user groups: cannabis alone ± tobacco (C ± T) (n = 123), tobacco alone (T) (n = 191) and controls (CTRL) (n = 355). RESULTS Pregnant women in the C ± T group were younger (mean age: 25.5 ± 5.7 years), had lower pre-pregnancy body mass index (22.8 ± 5.5 kg/m2), more psychiatric history (17.5%) and were more likely to benefit from universal free health-care coverage (18.2%) than those in the T and CTRL groups. Cannabis use increases the occurrence of voluntary interruption of pregnancy, at least one AE during pregnancy, at least one neonatal AE, the composite adverse pregnancy outcome over 28, prematurity and small for gestational age. CONCLUSION Given the trivialization of recreational cannabis use during pregnancy, there is an urgent need to communicate on AEs of cannabis use during pregnancy.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects 7-18% of all pregnancies. Despite its high prevalence, there is no widely accepted animal model. To address this, we recently developed a mouse model of GDM. The goal of this work was to further characterize this animal model by assessing insulin resistance and beta cell function. Mice were randomly assigned to either control (CD) or high fat, high sugar (HFHS) diet and mated 1 week later. At day 0 (day of mating) mice were fasted and intraperitoneal insulin tolerance tests (ipITT) were performed. Mice were then euthanized and pancreata were collected for histological analysis. Euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp experiments were performed on day 13.5 of pregnancy to assess insulin resistance. Beta cell function was assessed by glucose stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) assay performed on day 0, 13.5 and 17.5 of pregnancy. At day 0, insulin tolerance and beta cell numbers were not different. At day 13.5, glucose infusion and disposal rates were significantly decreased (p<0.05) in Pregnant (P) HFHS animals (p<0.05) suggesting development of insulin resistance in P HFHS dams. Placental and fetal glucose uptake was significantly increased (p<0.01) in P HFHS dams at day 13.5 of pregnancy and by day 17.5 of pregnancy fetal weights were increased (p<0.05) in P HFHS dams compared to P CD dams. Basal and secreted insulin levels were increased in HFHS fed females at day 0, however at day 13.5 and 17.5 GSIS was decreased (p<0.05) in P HFHS dams. In conclusion, this animal model results in insulin resistance and beta cell dysfunction by mid-pregnancy further validating its relevance in studying the pathophysiology GDM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to explore the relationships between carbohydrate intake, body mass index (BMI) and glycaemic control (HbA1c) in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) METHODS: Secondary analysis of data was undertaken to assess dietary intake in a cohort of women who participated in a randomised controlled trial (RCT) of antioxidant supplementation to prevent preeclampsia (DAPIT10 ). Study-specific peripheral venous blood samples were obtained for HbA1c at 26 and 34 weeks. Diet was collected using a validated semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire at 26-28 weeks of gestation which assessed dietary intake over 2 weeks. Mean daily average nutrient intakes were analysed using Q Builder nutritional software and SPSS, version 25. RESULTS Dietary data were available for 547 pregnant women (72% of cohort) aged 29 years (95% confidence interval [CI] = 28.9-29.9) with average diabetes duration 11.8 years (95% confidence interval = 11.1-12.6). Average body mass index (BMI) (<16 weeks of gestation) was 26.7 kg/m2 (95% CI = 26.3 -27, range 18.8-45.6 kg/m2 ); 43% (n = 234) were overweight (BMI = 25.0-29.9 kg/m2 ) and 20% (n = 112) were obese (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 ). Differences in HbA1c and carbohydrate quantity and quality were found when adjusted for age and insulin dose. No differences between BMI group were observed for total carbohydrate and glycaemic control; however, differences were noted in fibre and glycaemic index. CONCLUSIONS Average quantity of dietary carbohydrate influenced HbA1c when adjusted for insulin dose however, BMI had less impact. More research is required on the relationship between carbohydrate consumption and glycaemic control in pregnancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both high and low maternal prepregnancy body mass index can lead to suboptimal fetal growth and risk of pregnancy complications. In developed countries, nearly half of all women of childbearing age are either overweight or obese, and most data linking maternal body mass index and adverse pregnancy complications are limited to these populations. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the relationships between prepregnancy body mass index and adverse pregnancy outcomes using the Longitudinal Indian Family hEalth (LIFE) study. STUDY DESIGN We modeled the relationships between prepregnancy body mass index and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as low birthweight, preterm birth, cesarean delivery, intrauterine growth restriction, miscarriage, and fetal death among 675 women aged 15 to 35 years with singleton pregnancies in the Longitudinal Indian Family hEalth study, a population-based prospective pregnancy cohort study conducted in Telangana, India. Prepregnancy body mass index was calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared and was classified into 4 categories using the World Health Organization recommendations for Asian adults. Prepregnancy body mass index was assessed at a mean of 12.3 months before pregnancy. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of adverse pregnancy outcomes were modeled and adjusted for confounders. RESULTS Obese women had a 3-fold increased risk of cesarean delivery (odds ratio, 3.13; 95% confidence interval, 1.56-6.29) compared with normal-weight women. Those who were overweight also had a marginally increased risk of cesarean delivery, albeit not statistically significant (odds ratio, 1.17; 95% confidence interval, 0.61-2.24). Underweight women had a modestly increased risk of low birthweight, compared with normal-weight women (odds ratio, 1.12; 95% confidence interval, 0.71-1.77), although results were not significant. Conversely, obese (odds ratio, 0.71; 95% confidence interval, 0.28-1.77) and overweight (odds ratio, 0.61; 95% confidence interval, 0.24-1.51) women had a marginally decreased risk of low birthweight. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that women with elevated prepregnancy body mass index may have a higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, especially cesarean delivery. Although this study has limited generalizability, our findings are generalizable to rural to periurban regions of India. Further studies exploring the translatability of these findings to other populations are needed. In addition, targeted prepregnancy intervention studies and programs that include counseling on optimization of preconception health and lifestyle modification for improvement of subsequent pregnancy outcomes among overweight and obese women are needed.

What is the "cost" of reducing adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus - risk factors for perinatal complications in a retrospective cohort of pregnant women with GDM. BMC Pregnancy Childbirth 2022; 22:654. [PMID: 35986350 PMCID: PMC9392248 DOI: 10.1186/s12884-022-04980-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2021] [Accepted: 06/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a frequent pregnancy complication, affecting the maternal and neonatal health. The new diagnostic strategy for GDM, proposed by the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups in 2010 and World Health Organization in 2013, raised hope to reduce perinatal complications. The purpose of the study was to compare risk factors influencing maternal and foetal outcomes in a group of pregnant women diagnosed with GDM, and in a group of pregnant women without GDM, regardless of the adopted diagnostic criteria. Also, the aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of risk factors on perinatal results and the "cost" of reducing adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with GDM. METHODS It was a retrospective study based on the analysis of births given after 37 weeks of pregnancy at the 2nd Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Warsaw Medical University during the years 2013 to 2015. All pregnant women had a 75 g OGTT between the 24th and 28th weeks of pregnancy. The study compared risk factors for perinatal complications in 285 GDM patients and in 202 randomly selected women without GDM. The impact of selected risk factors on perinatal outcomes was analysed. RESULTS Both the diagnosis of GDM and maternal BMI prior to pregnancy, significantly modified the risk of excessive and insufficient weight gain during pregnancy. The parameters significantly influencing the risk of the composite adverse maternal outcome were the maternal abdominal circumference [OR: 1.08 (1.04; 1.11)] and multiparity, which reduced the risk by almost half [OR: 0.47 (0.30; 0.75)]. The maternal abdominal circumference before the delivery was a strong factor correlating with the occurrence of perinatal complications in both the mother and the foetus in the entire cohort. A circumference over 100 cm increased the risk of at least one maternal complication (increased blood loss, soft tissue injury, pre-eclampsia) by almost 40% (OR 1.38, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS No differences were found in maternal and foetal outcomes in GDM and non-GDM women except gestational weight gain below Institute of Medicine recommendations. The only "cost" of reducing adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients seems to be lowering gestational weight gain, the future impact of which on GDM pregnant population should be assessed. The maternal abdominal circumference measured before delivery not the severity of carbohydrate intolerance, remained the main predictor for significant perinatal complications.

Abstract
Objectives Diet is an important factor in gestational health. Many pregnant women have suboptimal diets and dairy foods are an excellent source of key nutrients. The aim of this work was to investigate the relationships between dairy consumption (cup equivalents/day) or diet quality assessed using the Healthy Eating Index-2015 and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) or gestational weight gain (GWG) among pregnant women in the United States (US). Methods Study populations were subsets of pregnant, non-lactating women (20–44 years) in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys 2003–2016, which was approved by the National Center for Health Statistics Research Ethics Review Board. GDM and GWG were classified according to national guidelines. General characteristics were compared across categories of dietary variables. Adjusted regression models estimated associations between diet and GDM and GWG. Results No statistically significant linear associations between dairy consumption or diet quality and GDM or GWG were observed. Conclusions for Practice Future research should aim to address the limitations of the current cross-sectional analyses and further elucidate the underlying relationships between diet and gestational health.

Abstract
Background Miscarriage is defined as an adverse and unexpected termination of pregnancy; it is the most frequent pregnancy complication. Here, we aimed to identify the factors predisposing to miscarriage in pregnant women in Eastern Algeria and the effect of the combination of several factors, including maternal Body Mass Index (BMI), maternal age, concomitant pathologies, and nutrients, and to predict the occurrence of miscarriage. Methods A total of 786 pregnant women from Eastern Algeria were interviewed between 2011 and 2015. Association between miscarriage exposure and identified risk factors was assessed using a Generalized Linear Model (GLM), ANOVA test, Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), and Hierarchical Clustering Analysis (HCA). Throughout this study, we sought to find answers, discuss this association, and predict the occurrence of miscarriage. Results We developed a predictive model for miscarriage, and we found that miscarriage was significantly higher for pregnant women aged over 35 years (1.75; 95% CI: 0.75-4.37; p = 0.208), with a high BMI (> 25 kg/m2), (1.88; 95% CI:1.28-2.78; p = 0.001). We have highlighted that miscarriage is strongly associated with hypertension (1.67; 95% CI: 1.16-2.39; p = 0.006), diet rich in meat (0.60; 95% CI: 0.33-1.04; p = 0.075), and moderate in fish (2.32; 95% CI: 1.18-4.58; p = 0.015). Conclusion Our study proved that knowing these risk factors helps to establish predictive models and strategies to prevent tragic pregnancy outcomes and highlights the link between miscarriage and several risk factors; and thus, will allow protecting mother and fetus health.

Abstract
Background Controversial evidence regarding the applicability of the IOM’s gestational weight gain (GWG) targets for women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has been reported. However, little is known about the weight gain rate (WGR) during the second and third trimesters. Moreover, previous studies failed to assess the effect modification of pre-pregnancy BMI because of the limited sample size. Therefore, we aimed to assess the applicability of the IOM recommendation for the WGR in women with GDM in different pre-pregnancy BMI categories. Methods We conducted this retrospective cohort study of 5275 women with GDM who delivered at Guangzhou Women and Children’s Medical Center (GWCMC) between January 2017 and January 2021. Demographic and clinical information was collected from the electronic medical record system. The primary exposure was the WGR in the late second and third trimesters; they were classified as below, within, and above the IOM standard. The outcomes were fetal growth indicators, including large-for-gestational-age (LGA), macrosomia, small-for-gestational-age (SGA), and low birth weight (LBW). The associations between the WGR and such outcomes were assessed using multiple logistic regression. Results A WGR below the IOM standard was associated with the decreased odds of LGA (adjusted OR 0.74; 95% CI 0.49–1.13) and macrosomia (adjusted OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.32–0.92) for women with GDM in the normal weight BMI class. Such decreases were observed greater for women with GDM in the overweight/obese class, with adjusted ORs of 0.34 (95% CI 0.09–0.88) for LGA and 0.31 (95% CI 0.01–0.84) for macrosomia, respectively. No significant difference was observed in the odds ratios of SGA and LBW across the different WGR groups. Conclusion LGA and macrosomia are the main outcomes associated with the WGR in the late second and third trimesters, and a WGR below the IOM standard was associated with a decreased odds of such outcomes compared with a WGR within the IOM standard in women with GDM in the normal weight and overweight/obese classes. Our findings suggest that a stricter WGR target than that of the current IOM standard may be more beneficial for women with GDM.

The importance of nutrition in pregnancy and lactation: lifelong consequences. Am J Obstet Gynecol 2022; 226:607-632. [PMID: 34968458 PMCID: PMC9182711 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajog.2021.12.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 153] [Impact Index Per Article: 76.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2021] [Revised: 12/17/2021] [Accepted: 12/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Most women in the United States do not meet the recommendations for healthful nutrition and weight before and during pregnancy. Women and providers often ask what a healthy diet for a pregnant woman should look like. The message should be “eat better, not more.” This can be achieved by basing diet on a variety of nutrient-dense, whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, healthy fats with omega-3 fatty acids that include nuts and seeds, and fish, in place of poorer quality highly processed foods. Such a diet embodies nutritional density and is less likely to be accompanied by excessive energy intake than the standard American diet consisting of increased intakes of processed foods, fatty red meat, and sweetened foods and beverages. Women who report “prudent” or “health-conscious” eating patterns before and/or during pregnancy may have fewer pregnancy complications and adverse child health outcomes. Comprehensive nutritional supplementation (multiple micronutrients plus balanced protein energy) among women with inadequate nutrition has been associated with improved birth outcomes, including decreased rates of low birthweight. A diet that severely restricts any macronutrient class should be avoided, specifically the ketogenic diet that lacks carbohydrates, the Paleo diet because of dairy restriction, and any diet characterized by excess saturated fats. User-friendly tools to facilitate a quick evaluation of dietary patterns with clear guidance on how to address dietary inadequacies and embedded support from trained healthcare providers are urgently needed. Recent evidence has shown that although excessive gestational weight gain predicts adverse perinatal outcomes among women with normal weight, the degree of prepregnancy obesity predicts adverse perinatal outcomes to a greater degree than gestational weight gain among women with obesity. Furthermore, low body mass index and insufficient gestational weight gain are associated with poor perinatal outcomes. Observational data have shown that first-trimester gain is the strongest predictor of adverse outcomes. Interventions beginning in early pregnancy or preconception are needed to prevent downstream complications for mothers and their children. For neonates, human milk provides personalized nutrition and is associated with short- and long-term health benefits for infants and mothers. Eating a healthy diet is a way for lactating mothers to support optimal health for themselves and their infants.

Determinants of Suboptimal Gestational Weight Gain among Antenatal Women Residing in the Highest Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Region of Malaysia. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14071436. [PMID: 35406049 PMCID: PMC9003510 DOI: 10.3390/nu14071436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2022] [Revised: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Suboptimal gestational weight gain has been associated with adverse perinatal and maternal outcomes, including increased risk of non-communicable diseases later in life. This study aimed to determine the proportion and determinants of suboptimal GWG. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 475 pregnant women in Selangor between January and March 2020. The study included all pregnant women at their second or third trimester who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A multistage sampling was applied. The GWG adequacy was based on recommendations from the Institute of Medicine (2009). Multinomial logistic regressions were used for data analysis. Out of the 475 respondents, 224 (47.2%) pregnant women had inadequate GWG, 142 (29.9%) had adequate GWG, and 109 (22.9%) had excessive GWG. Multinomial logistic regression showed that having diabetes in pregnancy (AdjOR 2.24, 95% CI: 1.31, 3.83, p = 0.003), middle (M40) monthly household income (AdjOR 2.33, 95% CI: 1.09, 4.96, p = 0.029), low (B40) monthly household income (AdjOR 2.22, 95% CI: 1.07, 4.72, p = 0.039), and an obese pre-pregnancy BMI (AdjOR 2.77, 95% CI: 1.43, 5.35, p = 0.002) were significantly associated with inadequate GWG. Overweight (AdjOR 5.18, 95% CI: 2.52, 10.62, p < 0.001) and obese pre-pregnancy BMIs (AdjOR 17.95, 95% CI: 8.13, 36.95, p < 0.001) were significantly associated with excessive GWG. Improving maternal and perinatal outcomes requires targeted interventions focusing on these modifiable determinants.

Abstract
Several studies have reported that pre-pregnant women’s body mass index (BMI) affects women’s weight gain with complications during pregnancy and the postpartum weight retention. It is important to control the BMI before, during and after pregnancy. Our objectives are to develop a technique that can compute and visualize 3D body shapes of women during pregnancy and postpartum in various gestational ages, BMI, and postpartum durations. Body changes data from 98 pregnant and 83 postpartum women were collected, tracked for six months, and analyzed to create 3D model shapes. This study allows users to simulate their 3D body shapes in real-time and online, based on weight, height, and gestational age, using multiple linear regression and morphing techniques. To evaluate the results, precision tests were performed on simulated 3D pregnant and postpartum women’s shapes. Additionally, a satisfaction test on the application was conducted on new 149 mothers. The accuracy of the simulation was tested on 75 pregnant and 74 postpartum volunteers in terms of relationships between statistical calculation, simulated 3D models and actual tape measurement of chest, waist, hip, and inseam. Our results can predict accurately the body proportions of pregnant and postpartum women.

Abstract
Background Gestational weight gain (GWG) and prepregnancy obesity are garnering more attention as determining factors of pregnancy outcomes when it comes to the wellbeing of both the mother and her baby. This study was conducted to describe the pattern of GWG among participants of Riyadh Mother and Baby Multicenter Cohort Study (RAHMA) and to investigate the detrimental effects of excessive GWG and prepregnancy obesity on pregnancy outcomes. Methods RAHMA is a multicentre cohort study conducted in three hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Participants were categorized according to the Institute of Medicine into inadequate, adequate, and excessive GWG, and stratified by body mass index (BMI) into under/normal weight, overweight, and obese. To examine the independent effect of maternal prepregnancy obesity and GWG, a multivariate regression model was used and adjusted odds ratio (AOR) and 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for each outcome were calculated. Results A total of 7029 participants were included in this study; 31.8% had adequate GWG, 25.9% had excessive GWG and 42.3% had inadequate GWG, while 29.7% had normal BMI, 33.3% were overweight, 34.8% were obese, and 2.2% were underweight. Excessive GWG was independently associated with increased risk of hypertensive events, (AOR = 1.77, 95% CI 1.20–2.63). Obesity was associated with higher risk of gestational diabetes (AOR 2.11, 95% CI 1.76–2.53), hypertensive events (AOR 2.06, 95% CI 1.48–3.01), and delivery by emergency caesarean section (AOR = 1.63, 95% CI 1.35–1.97). Infants of obese women had increased odds of macrosomia (AOR 3.11, 95% CI 1.94–4.99) and lower odds of low birth weight (AOR = 0.68, 95% CI 0.53–0.88). Conclusion In comparison to excessive GWG, which increases the risk of hypertensive events during pregnancy, prepregnancy obesity is associated with more adverse outcomes including GDM, hypertensive events in pregnancy and emergency CS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the useful models in health education is the Beliefs, Attitudes, Subjective Norms, and Enabling Factors (BASNEF) model. The model is used to study behavior and to plan for change it and to determine the factors that influence people's decision-making. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the nutritional behavior of pregnant women based on BASNEF model. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was performed on 360 pregnant women referring to health centers of Tabriz-Iran by two-stage cluster sampling method from April to December 2016. Data were collected using sociodemographic, nutrition subdomain of Health Promoting Lifestyle-II (HPLP-II), and researcher-made questionnaire based on constructs of BASNEF model. Data were analyzed using the SPSS software version 21 and Pearson correlation test and General Linear Model (GLM). RESULTS Mean ± standard deviation (SD) of nutrition subdomain of HPLP-II was 24.65 ± 4.75 within the range 9-36. Mean ± SD of BASNEF model constructs (score range) was also obtained as 45.30 ± 10.80 (0-100), 17.98 ± 2.40 (8-24), 9.30 ± 2.82 (0-20) and 2.47 ± 1.74 (0-6) for belief, attitude, subjective norms, and enabling factors, respectively. Based on the GLM, there was significant relationships between nutritional behavior and BASNEF model constructs (belief [P < 0.001], attitude [P = 0.043], enabling factors [P < 0.001], and subjective norms [P = 0.038]) as well as the variables of job, husband's education, and job and sufficiency of income for expenses. CONCLUSION The results of the present study showed the impact of BASNEF model constructs and some sociodemographic variables on nutrition behaviors in pregnant women. Therefore, in order to improve nutrition behaviors of pregnant women, designing and implementation of interventions based on the BASNEF model are recommended.

Abstract
Background In low-income countries, the high prevalence of pre-pregnancy undernutrition remains a challenge for the future health of women and their offspring. On top of good nutrition, adequate gestational weight gain has been recognized as an essential prerequisite for optimal maternal and child health outcomes. However, good-quality data on factors influencing gestational weight gain is lacking. Therefore, this study was aimed to prospectively identify pre-conception and prenatal factors influencing gestational weight gain in Ethiopia. Methods A population based prospective study was undertaken between February 2018 and January 2019 in the Tigray region, northern Ethiopia. Firstly, the weight of non-pregnant women of reproductive age living in the study area was measured between August and October 2017. Subsequently, eligible pregnant women identified during the study period were included consecutively and followed until birth. Data were collected through an interviewer-administered questionnaire and anthropometric measurements complemented with secondary data. Gestational weight gain, i.e., the difference between 32 to 36 weeks of gestation and pre-pregnancy weights, was classified as per the Institute of Medicine (IOM) guideline. Linear, spline, and logistic regression models were used to estimate the influence of pre-conception and prenatal factors on gestational weight gain. Results The mean gestational weight gain (standard deviation[SD]) was 10.6 (2.3) kg. Overall, 64.0% (95% CI 60.9, 67.1) of the women did not achieve adequate weight gain. Factors associated with higher gestational weight gain were higher women empowerment (B 0.60, 95% CI 0.06, 1.14), dietary diversity (B 0.39, 95% CI 0.03, 0.76), pre-pregnancy body mass index (B 0.13, 95% CI 0.05, 0.22), and haemoglobin (B 0.54, 95% CI 0.45, 0.64). Additionally, adequate prenatal care (B 0.58, 95% CI 0.28, 0.88) was associated with higher gestational weight gain. Conclusions Adequate gestational weight gain was not achieved by most women in the study area, primarily not by those who were underweight before pregnancy. Interventions that advance women’s empowerment, dietary quality, pre-pregnancy nutritional status, and prenatal care utilization may improve gestational weight gain and contribute to optimizing maternal and child health outcomes.

Fetal growth velocity references from a Chinese population-based fetal growth study. BMC Pregnancy Childbirth 2021; 21:688. [PMID: 34627184 PMCID: PMC8501691 DOI: 10.1186/s12884-021-04149-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fetal growth velocity standards have yet to be established for the Chinese population. This study aimed to establish such standards suitable for the Chinese population. METHODS We performed a multicenter, population-based longitudinal cohort study including 9075 low-risk singleton pregnant women. Data were collected from the clinical records of 24 hospitals in 18 provinces of China. Demographic characteristics, reproductive history, fetal ultrasound measurements, and perinatal outcome data were collected. The fetal ultrasound measurements included biparietal diameter (BPD), abdominal circumference (AC), head circumference (HC), and femur diaphysis length (FDL). We used linear mixed models with cubic splines to model the trajectory of four ultrasound parameters and estimate fetal weight. Fetal growth velocity was determined by calculating the first derivative of fetal size curves. We also used logistic regression to estimate the association between fetal growth velocities in the bottom 10th percentile and adverse perinatal outcomes. RESULTS Fetal growth velocity was not consistent over time or among individuals. The estimated fetal weight (EFW) steadily increased beginning at 12 gestational weeks and peaked at 35 gestational weeks. The maximum velocity was 211.71 g/week, and there was a steady decrease in velocity from 35 to 40 gestational weeks. The four ultrasound measurements increased in the early second trimester; BPD and HC peaked at 13 gestational weeks, AC at 14 gestational weeks, and FDL at 15 gestational weeks. BPD and HC also increased from 19 to 24 and 19 to 21 gestational weeks, respectively. EFW velocity in the bottom 10th percentile indicated higher risks of neonatal complications (odds ratio [OR] = 2.23, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.79-2.78) and preterm birth < 37 weeks (OR = 3.68, 95% CI: 2.64-5.14). Sensitivity analyses showed that EFW velocity in the bottom 10th percentile was significantly associated with more adverse pregnancy outcomes for appropriate-for-gestational age neonates. CONCLUSIONS We established fetal growth velocity curves for the Chinese population based on real-world clinical data. Our findings demonstrated that Chinese fetal growth patterns are somewhat different from those of other populations. Fetal growth velocity could provide more information to understand the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes, especially for appropriate-for-gestational age neonates.

Abstract
ABSTRACT To determine optimal gestational weight gain (GWG) for the Chinese population.Live singleton deliveries at the largest maternal & childcare hospital in northwest China from 2010 to 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the lowest aggregated risk of interested perinatal outcomes based on Chinese adult body mass index (BMI) categories.Eight thousand eight hundred seventy enrolled parturients were divided into 4 groups according to their prepregnancy BMI: underweight (21.31%, BMI < 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (67.81%, 18.5 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 24 kg/m2), overweight (8.99%, 24 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 28 kg/m2 and obese (1.89%, BMI ≥ 28 kg/m2). The optimal GWG values for the above 4 groups were 16.7 kg (GWG range, 12.0-21.5), 14.5 kg (9.5-19.5), 11.5 kg (7.0-16.5), and 8.0 kg (5.0-13.0). The rates of inadequate, optimal and excessive GWG in present study were 6.14% (545), 62.34% (5529), and 31.52% (2796) respectively, which were significantly different from those of the 2009 Institute of Medicine recommendation (χ2 = 1416.05, Pinteraction < 0.0001).Wider optimal GWG ranges than those recommended by Institute of Medicine were found in our study, and our proposed criteria seems to be practical to the Chinese population.

Abstract
Excess adiposity in infancy may predispose individuals to obesity later in life. The literature on determinants of adiposity in infants is equivocal. In this longitudinal cohort study, we investigated pre-pregnancy, prenatal and postnatal determinants of different adiposity indices in infants, i.e., fat mass (FM), percent FM (%FM), fat mass index (FMI) and log-log index (FM/FFMp), from birth to 6 months, using linear mixed-effects regression. Body composition was measured in 322, 174 and 109 infants at birth and 3 and 6 months afterwards, respectively, utilising air displacement plethysmography. Positive associations were observed between gestation length and infant FM, maternal self-reported pre-pregnancy body mass index and infant %FM, and parity and infant %FM and FMI at birth. Surprisingly, maternal intake of iron supplements during pregnancy was associated with infant FM, %FM and FMI at 3 months and FM/FFMp at 6 months. Male infant sex and formula feeding were negatively associated with all adiposity indices at 6 months. In conclusion, pre-pregnancy and pregnancy factors influence adiposity during early life, and any unfavourable impacts may be modulated postnatally via infant feeding practices. Moreover, as these associations are dependent on the adiposity indices used, it is crucial that researchers use conceptually and statistically robust approaches such as FM/FFMp.

Assessing the relationship between pregravid body mass index and risk of adverse maternal pregnancy and neonatal outcomes: prospective data in Southwest China. Sci Rep 2021; 11:7591.

Abstract
The relevance of pregestational body mass index (BMI) on adverse pregnancy outcomes remained unclear in Southwest China. This study aimed to investigate the overall and age-category specific association between pre-gestational BMI and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), preeclampsia, cesarean delivery, preterm delivery, stillbirth, macrosomia, and small-for-gestational age (SGA) or large-for-gestational age (LGA) neonates in Southwest China. Furthermore, it explores the relative importance of influence of pregravid BMI and maternal age on pregnancy outcomes. 51,125 Chinese singleton pregnant women were recruited as study subjects. Multiple logistic regression models were used to examine the influence of pre-pregnancy BMI on adverse pregnancy outcomes. Gradient boosting machine was used to evaluate the relative importance of influence of pregravid BMI and maternal age on pregnancy outcomes. It is found that women who were overweight or obese before pregnancy are at higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes except for SGA neonates, while pre-pregnancy underweight is a protective factor for GDM, preeclampsia, cesarean delivery, macrosomia and LGA, but not SGA. Younger mothers are more susceptible to GDM and macrosomia neonates, while older mothers are more prone to preeclampsia. Pre-pregnancy BMI has more influence on various pregnancy outcomes than maternal age. To improve pregnancy outcomes, normal BMI weight as well as relatively young maternal ages are recommended for women in child-bearing age.

Maternal Prepregnancy Weight and Pregnancy Outcomes in Saudi Women: Subgroup Analysis from Riyadh Mother and Baby Cohort Study (RAHMA). BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:6655942. [PMID: 33869631 PMCID: PMC8034996 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6655942] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2020] [Revised: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 03/13/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of prepregnancy overweight/obesity and underweight among Saudi mothers and to determine the adverse pregnancy outcomes associated with them. Methods. This is a subgroup analysis from a Riyadh mother and baby cohort study. Participants were divided into four groups according to prepregnancy BMI. Participants with normal BMI were the reference group. Groups were compared in relation to pregnancy-related obstetric, as well as fetal and neonatal complications. A regression model was used to control for covariates, and adjusted odds ratios (AOR) with 95% Confidence Intervals (95% CI) were calculated. Results. A total of 7,029 women were included, 29.7% had normal BMI, 33.3% were overweight, 34.8% were obese, and 2.2% were underweight. Obesity was associated with increased odds of gestational diabetes (AOR 2.07, 95% CI 1.73-2.47), hypertensive events in pregnancy (AOR 2.33, 95% CI 1.19-3.91), induction of labour (IOL) (AOR 1.40, 95% CI, 1.19-1.65), failed IOL (AOR 2.13, 95% CI 1.40-3.25), and delivery by emergency caesarean section (CS) (AOR 1.67, 95% CI 1.39-2.01). Infants of obese women had increased odds of macrosomia (AOR 3.73, 95% CI 2.33-5.98). Overweight women had increased odds of CS delivery (AOR 1.25, 95% CI 1.03-1.5) and failed IOL (AOR 1.69, 95% CI 1.09-2.60). Underweight women had increased odds of delivering a low birth weight (LBW) infant (AOR 2.49, 95% CI, 1.58-3.92). Conclusion. The prevalence of prepregnancy overweight and obesity is very high in Saudi Arabia. Prepregnancy obesity is associated with GDM and hypertensive events inpregnancy, IOL, failed IOL, and CS delivery. Infants of obese mothers were at higher risk of macrosomia, while underweight women were at increased risk of delivering LBW infants.

Abstract
Background: The increasing prevalence of childhood obesity is an important public health issue and the development of obesity in early life and associated risk factors need to be better understood. The aim of this study was to identify distinct body mass index trajectories in the first 5 years of life and to examine their associations with factors identified in pregnancy, including metabolic parameters. Methods: BMI measurements from 2,172 children in Ireland enrolled in the BASELINE cohort study with BMI assessments at birth, 2, 6, and 12 months, and 2 and 5 years were analyzed. Growth mixture modeling was used to identify distinct BMI trajectories, and multivariate multinomial logistic regression was used to assess the association between these trajectories and antenatal factors. Results: Three distinct BMI trajectories were identified: normal (89.6%); rapid gain in the first 6 months (7.8%); and rapid BMI after 12 months (2.6%). Male sex and higher maternal age increased the likelihood of belonging to the rapid gain in the first 6 months trajectory. Raised maternal BMI at 15 weeks of pregnancy and lower cord blood IGF-2 were associated with rapid gain after 1 year. Conclusion: Sex, maternal age and BMI, and IGF-2 levels were found to be associated with BMI trajectories in early childhood departing from normal growth. Further research and extended follow-up to examine the effects of childhood growth patterns are required to understand their relationship with health outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Previous studies indicated a significant association between small for gestational age (SGA) in infants and their parents' socioeconomic status (SES). Thus, this study aimed to examine if parental factors, such as maternal smoking, and the pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) could mediate the associations between parental SES and SGA. METHODS The participants of this study were pregnant women who enrolled in an ongoing birth cohort study, the Hokkaido study, during the first trimester of their pregnancies. A total of 14,593 live singleton births were included in the statistical analysis, of which 1011 (6.9%) were SGA. Two structural equation models were employed to evaluate the associations between parental SES, parental characteristics, and SGA. RESULTS The effect of low SES on SGA was directly mediated by maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, smoking during the third trimester, and alcohol consumption during the first trimester in the first model, which was based the assumption of independent associations between mediating factors. In the second model, which additionally considered the mediating factors from the first model, smoking during pregnancy mediated decline in parental SES, consequently increased SGA. Moreover, an increase in pregnancy smoking status increased the prevalence of lower maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and its effect on SGA. CONCLUSIONS FOR PRACTICE In this study, we observed the independent mediating effect of maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, smoking, and alcohol consumption during pregnancy on low SES and, consequently, SGA, with the additional mediating pathway of SES to smoking to low BMI on SGA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pregnancy period represents the most intense period of growth and development. Pre-pregnancy weight influences weight gain during pregnancy. Leptin is a hormone mainly derived from white adipose tissue, during pregnancy leptin is also produced by the placenta. It has been suggested that the effects of placental leptin on the mother may contribute to endocrine-mediated alterations in energy balance; a dysregulation in leptin levels or its receptors may lead to poor birth outcomes. Therefore, the main goal of the present study was to analyze the differences in birth outcomes by maternal weight with the expression level of leptin receptor in maternal peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and placental tissue. METHODS Women with full-term gestation and its offspring were enrolled. Total RNA from maternal PBMC and placenta was obtained to perform the analysis of expression of the leptin receptor (LEPR) gene trough real-time PCR technique. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA or Mann-Whitney u test when applicable. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to determine the relationship between continuous variables (Stata v.13); p ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS No statistically significant differences were found between LEPR expression level and the BMI studied groups in maternal PBMC and placental tissue. Interaction between gestational weight gain (GWG) and LEPR in maternal PBMC explain in a 32% the variability of the newborn weight. CONCLUSIONS LEPR expression level in maternal PBMC correlates with newborn measurements independent from sex. GWG can affect fetal development by increasing fetal birth weight.

Abstract
This study reviews the current status and future prospective of knowledge on the use of artificial intelligence for the prediction of spontaneous preterm labor and birth (“preterm birth” hereafter). The summary of review suggests that different machine learning approaches would be optimal for different types of data regarding the prediction of preterm birth: the artificial neural network, logistic regression and/or the random forest for numeric data; the support vector machine for electrohysterogram data; the recurrent neural network for text data; and the convolutional neural network for image data. The ranges of performance measures were 0.79–0.94 for accuracy, 0.22–0.97 for sensitivity, 0.86–1.00 for specificity, and 0.54–0.83 for the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. The following maternal variables were reported to be major determinants of preterm birth: delivery and pregestational body mass index, age, parity, predelivery systolic and diastolic blood pressure, twins, below high school graduation, infant sex, prior preterm birth, progesterone medication history, upper gastrointestinal tract symptom, gastroesophageal reflux disease, Helicobacter pylori, urban region, calcium channel blocker medication history, gestational diabetes mellitus, prior cone biopsy, cervical length, myomas and adenomyosis, insurance, marriage, religion, systemic lupus erythematosus, hydroxychloroquine sulfate, and increased cerebrospinal fluid and reduced cortical folding due to impaired brain growth.

[PMID: 32419780 PMCID: PMC7213007 DOI: 10.4103/jrms.jrms_814_18] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2018] [Revised: 04/05/2019] [Accepted: 12/16/2019] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
Background: Prevention of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) during pregnancy is recommended due to severe complications for mothers and infants. Considering that NCDs have a significant impact on infant mortality, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between mothers' underlying diseases and gestational diabetes and infant mortality in Iran. Materials and Methods: Mothers who referred to the health centers in nine provinces of Iran were included. This case–control study used data collected from pregnant women. There were 1162 cases and 1624 controls. The required data were collected from mothers' health records and through interviews. Results: The chances of neonatal mortality in women with a body mass index (BMI) of 30–35, 1.7 times (odds ratio [OR] = 1.7, confidence interval [CI]: 1.19–2.44, P = 0.003) was higher compared with women with a normal BMI. The chance of neonatal mortality among mothers with high blood pressure was three times higher compared with healthy mothers (OR = 3.04, 95% CI: 1.98–4.65, P < 0.001). The chance of neonatal mortality in women with kidney disease was also 1.64 times higher than mothers without kidney problems (OR = 1.64, 95% CI: 1.1–2.45, P = 0.015). In the study of gestational diabetes, the chance of neonatal mortality among the mothers who had at risk was 1.63 times higher than mothers without gestational diabetes (OR = 1.63, 95% CI: 0.84–3.16, P = 0.014). Furthermore, the chance of neonatal mortality among the mothers who had heart disease was 1.10 times higher than mothers without heart disease (OR = 2.10, 95% CI: 0.88–4.99, P = 0.014). Conclusion: This study showed that undiagnosed underlying diseases were related to neonatal mortality, which highlights the importance of caring for and counseling about the underlying diseases, screening, and controlling blood sugar levels before and during pregnancy to prevent infant mortality by all means possible.

Weight gain in early, mid, and late pregnancy and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Pregnancy Hypertens 2020; 20:50-55. [PMID: 32172170 DOI: 10.1016/j.preghy.2020.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2019] [Revised: 02/24/2020] [Accepted: 03/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship of weight change during early, mid, and late pregnancy with the development of a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy (HDP). STUDY DESIGN These data are from a prospective cohort study of nulliparous women with live singleton pregnancies. "Early" weight change was defined as the difference between self-reported pre-pregnancy weight and weight at the first visit (between 6 and 13 weeks' gestation); "mid" weight change was defined as the weight change between the first and second visits (between 16 and 21 weeks' gestation); "late" weight change was defined as the weight change between the second and third visits (between 22 and 29 weeks' gestation). Weight change in each time period was further characterized as inadequate, adequate, or excessive based on the Institute of Medicine's (IOM's) trimester-specific weekly weight gain goals based on pre-pregnancy body mass index. Multivariable Poisson regression was performed to adjust for potential confounders. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Development of any hypertensive disorder of pregnancy. RESULTS Of 8296 women, 1564 (18.9%) developed a HDP. Weight gain in excess of the IOM recommendations during the latter two time periods was significantly associated with HDP. Specifically, trimester-specific excessive weight gain in the mid period (aIRR 1.16, 95% CI 1.01-1.35) as well as in the late period (aIRR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.02-1.40) was associated with increased risk of developing HDP. The weight gain preceded the onset of clinically apparent disease. CONCLUSIONS Excessive weight gain as early as the early second trimester was associated with increased risks of development of HDP.

Moll U, Olsson H, Landin-Olsson M. Women with a predisposition for diabetes have an increased risk of pregnancy complications, especially in combination with pregestational overweight. BMC Pregnancy Childbirth 2020; 20:74. [PMID: 32013922 PMCID: PMC6998083 DOI: 10.1186/s12884-020-2741-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2019] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Overweight and gestational diabetes are risk factors for pregnancy complications. We hypothesized that the metabolic impact of overweight on pregnancy outcome, would be different if it was combined with a predisposition for diabetes. The aim of this study was to compare the outcome of pregnancies in women with diabetes diagnosed later in life, to the outcome of pregnancies of women who did not develop diabetes. METHODS Women in a population-based cohort who also were registered in the Swedish Medical Birth Registry (n = 4738) were included. A predisposition for diabetes (GDM or diabetes after pregnancy) was found in 455 pregnancies. The number of pregnancies with maternal BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 and without diabetes were 2466, and in 10,405 pregnancies the mother had a BMI < 25 kg/m2 without diabetes at any time. Maternal BMI, gestational length, gestational weight gain, frequency of caesarean section, infant birth weight, frequency of large for gestational age (LGA) and Apgar score were retrospectively compared. RESULTS Pregnancies with normal maternal BMI ≤25 kg/m2, with predisposition for diabetes had a higher frequency of LGA (11.6% vs. 2.9%; p < 0.001), a higher frequency of macrosomia (28.6% vs. 17.6%; p < 0.001), and a shorter gestational length (39.7 vs. 40 weeks; p = 0.08) when compared to pregnancies in women without a predisposition for diabetes. In addition, pregnancies with both maternal predisposition for diabetes and BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 there was a higher frequency of LGA (23.3% vs. 7.1%; p < 0.001), caesarean section (24.0% vs. 14.9%, p = 0.031) compared to pregnancies in women who were only overweight. A predisposition for diabetes significantly increases the risk of macrosomia (OR1.5; 95% CI 1.07-2.15; p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS In pregnancy, there is an increased frequency of LGA, macrosomia and caesarean section if the woman has a predisposition for diabetes. The frequency of overweight young women is increasing, and it is urgent to identify pregnant women with a predisposition to diabetes. How to distinguish the women with the highest risk for adverse pregnancy outcome and the highest risk of future disease, remains to be studied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of physiological adjustments throughout pregnancy on maternal vital signs and laboratory values has yet to be fully defined. The present study was designed to determine the normal range of these parameters among healthy pregnant women during the peripartum period. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of data collected during real-time deliveries in a single medical center. Vital signs and laboratory results from the 24 hours preceding delivery room admission and up to 72 hours postpartum were collected. Only pregnant women at term (37 to 41 weeks' gestation) with a liveborn, singleton gestation, and no chronic disease or obstetric complication that could affect the physiological parameters under study were included. The mean, range, and standard deviations of the extremes of all parameters at 3 distinct time points (prelabor, intrapartum, and postpartum) were calculated. The 2.5 and 97.5 percentiles for each parameter were reported as the normal range. RESULTS A total of 32,161 cases fulfilled inclusion criteria. The average gestational age at delivery was 39 weeks ± 8 days, and one-third of the cases were primiparous. During labor and after delivery, the upper limits of normal blood pressure values were 147/94 and 145/94 mm Hg, respectively. The lower limits were 83/43 and 83/42 mm Hg, respectively. Normal heart rates were 60-115 beats/min prelabor, 51-120 beats/min intrapartum, and 50-120 beats/min postpartum. Lowest normal temperatures ranged between 36.0°C and 36.3°C in the 3 study time points, and highest normal temperatures were 37.2°C prelabor and 37.6°C intra- and postpartum. The normal ranges of white blood cell counts were 6.1-16.8 prelabor, 6.5-22.5 intrapartum, and 6.4-23.9 K/µL postpartum. Normal low values of hemoglobin were 9.7, 8.7, and 7.1 g/dL and of platelets were 117, 113, and 105 K/µL, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our findings justify the practice of using ≥2 repeated measurements for diagnosing hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Lower normal blood pressure limits may be below those defining hypotensive shock. Normal heart rates exceed the accepted definitions of both tachy- and bradycardia. Normal temperatures at all times have a more narrow range than previously thought, and the normal range of white blood cell count has outliers exceeding the current definitions of leukocytosis or leukopenia at all times. The normal lower range of hemoglobin was constantly below 10 g/dL, and normal platelet counts were considerably lower than those previously described. The vital signs and complete blood count values thus far considered normal for the peripartum period may require some adjustment. New definitions for hypotension, tachy- and bradycardia, fever, and leukocyte quantitative disorders should be considered.

An association between maternal weight change in the year before pregnancy and infant birth weight: ELFE, a French national birth cohort study. PLoS Med 2019; 16:e1002871. [PMID: 31430274 PMCID: PMC6701747 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pmed.1002871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2019] [Accepted: 07/17/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight-control interventions in pregnant women with overweight or obesity have limited effectiveness for fetal growth and birth outcomes. Interventions or prevention programs aiming at the pre-pregnancy period should be considered. However, how the woman's weight change before pregnancy affects fetal growth is not known. We investigated the association between weight change over the year before pregnancy and birth weight. METHODS AND FINDINGS We used the inclusion data of 16,395 women from the ELFE French national birth cohort, a nationally representative cohort in which infants were enrolled at birth with their families in 2011. Maternal weight change was self-reported and classified into 3 groups: moderate weight variation or stable weight, weight loss > 5 kg, and weight gain > 5 kg or both weight loss and gain > 5 kg. Multiple linear regression models were used to investigate the association between pre-pregnancy weight change and a birth weight z-score calculated according to the French Audipog reference, adjusted for a large set of maternal characteristics. The analyses were stratified by maternal body mass index (BMI) at conception (<25 versus ≥25 kg/m2) and adjusted for BMI within these categories. We used the MacKinnon method to test the mediating effect of gestational weight gain (GWG) on these associations. Mother's mean age was 30.5 years, 87% were born in France, and 26% had overweight or obesity. For women in either BMI category at conception, GWG was more than 2 kg higher, on average, for women with weight loss before pregnancy than for women with stable weight or moderate weight variation. For women with BMI < 25 kg/m2 at conception, birth weight was significantly higher with weight loss than stable weight before pregnancy (β = 0.08 [95% CI 0.02; 0.14], p = 0.01), and this total effect was explained by a significant mediating effect through GWG. For women with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 at conception, birth weight was not associated with pre-pregnancy weight loss during the year before pregnancy. Mediation analysis revealed that in these women, the direct effect of pre-pregnancy weight loss that would have resulted in a smaller birth weight z-score (β = -0.11 [95% CI -0.19; -0.03], p = 0.01) was cancelled out by the GWG. The mediating effect of GWG was even higher when weight loss resulted from a restrictive diet in the year before pregnancy. Weight gain before pregnancy was not associated with birth weight. Although we included a large number of women and had extensive data, the only potential cause of pre-pregnancy weight loss that was investigated was dieting for intentional weight loss. We have no information on other potential causes but did however exclude women with a history of pre-pregnancy chronic disease. Another limitation is declaration bias due to self-reported data. CONCLUSIONS Health professionals should be aware that GWG may offset the expected effect of weight loss before conception on fetal growth in overweight and obese women. Further studies are required to understand the underlying mechanisms in order to develop weight-control interventions and improve maternal periconceptional health and developmental conditions for the fetus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes during pregnancy is an increasingly common metabolic disorder, associated with significantly increased risks for both mother and child. Aim of this study was to compare maternal and perinatal outcomes in women with pregestational (PDM) type 1 (T1DM), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and compare these to pregnancies not complicated with diabetes. This study also evaluated a specifically organized care-model mostly involving specialist diabetes nurses. METHODS Retrospective population-based records review 2009-2012. Rates of maternal (preeclampsia, pre-term delivery, cesarean section (CS)) and fetal outcomes (large for gestational age (LGA), macrosomia, congenital malformations/intrauterine death) were assessed and potential predisposing or contributing factors as maternal age, ethnicity, obesity, weight gain, parity, HbA1c levels, insulin types and doses. RESULTS Among 280 pregnancies 48 were PDM, 97 GDM and 135 without diabetes. Within the group with diabetes, early-pregnancy BMI was higher (p = 0.0001), pregnancy weight gain lower (11.1 ± 6.7 kg vs 13.1 ± 7.1 kg, p = 0.005), more delivered preterm (p = 0.0001), by CS (p = 0.05), and had more LGA neonates (p = 0.06) than the group without diabetes. Among pregnancies with diabetes, GDM mothers gained less weight (9.9 kg vs 13.5 kg) (p = 0.006), and rates of CS (p = 0.03), preterm deliveries (p = 0.001) and LGA (p = 0.0001) were not increased compared to PDM; More T1DM infants were LGA, 60% vs. 27% in T2DM. In pregnancies with diabetes obesity, excessive weight gain and multiparity were associated with increased risk of LGA neonates, and mother's type of diabetes and gestational week were associated with higher rates of CS. CONCLUSION Weight gain during pregnancy was lower in pregnancies with diabetes and prevalence of LGA, CS and preterm deliveries in GDM was not elevated, also for T2DM, except increased prevalence of LGA in T1DM that warrants increased clinical attention, indicating that this model of antenatal diabetes care may have contributed to improved maternal and fetal outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little research based on the artificial neural network (ANN) is done on preterm birth (spontaneous preterm labor and birth) and its major determinants. This study uses an ANN for analyzing preterm birth and its major determinants. METHODS Data came from Anam Hospital in Seoul, Korea, with 596 obstetric patients during March 27, 2014 - August 21, 2018. Six machine learning methods were applied and compared for the prediction of preterm birth. Variable importance, the effect of a variable on model performance, was used for identifying major determinants of preterm birth. Analysis was done in December, 2018. RESULTS The accuracy of the ANN (0.9115) was similar with those of logistic regression and the random forest (0.9180 and 0.8918, respectively). Based on variable importance from the ANN, major determinants of preterm birth are body mass index (0.0164), hypertension (0.0131) and diabetes mellitus (0.0099) as well as prior cone biopsy (0.0099), prior placenta previa (0.0099), parity (0.0033), cervical length (0.0001), age (0.0001), prior preterm birth (0.0001) and myomas & adenomyosis (0.0001). CONCLUSION For preventing preterm birth, preventive measures for hypertension and diabetes mellitus are required alongside the promotion of cervical-length screening with different guidelines across the scope/type of prior conization.

The two-stage, random effect meta-analysis was performed to compare the dose-response relationship between BMI and GDM. As well as studies with categorized BMI, studies that treat BMI as a continuous variable were analysed. A total of 33 observational studies with an overall sample size of 962 966 women and 42 211 patients with GDM were included in analysis. The pooled estimate of GDM risk in the underweight, overweight, and obese pregnant women was 0.68, 2.01, and 3.98 using the adjusted OR and 0.34, 1.52, and 2.24 using the adjusted RR. The GDM risk increased 4% per unit of increase in BMI with both the crude and adjusted OR/RR models. Also, the risk of GDM increased 19% with the crude model and 14% with the adjusted model. The existence of dose-response relationship between the pre-pregnancy BMI and GDM can strengthen the scientific background for vigorous public health interventions for the control of pre-pregnancy BMI as well as the weight gain during pregnancy.

Eur J Nutr 2018; 57:1721-1736. [PMID: 29128995 PMCID: PMC6060815 DOI: 10.1007/s00394-017-1567-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2017] [Accepted: 10/13/2017] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The number of overweight and obese women is increasing in the obstetric population. The aim of this study was to review studies that reported results related to the efficacy of dietary interventions on gestational weight gain (GWG) or the prevention of gestational diabetes (GDM) in overweight and obese women. METHODS The search was performed using the CINAHL, PubMed, Scopus and Medic electronic databases and limited to the years between 2000 and March 2016. This systematic review includes 15 research articles of which 12 were randomized controlled trials, and three were controlled trials. Three main categories emerged as follows: (1) the types of interventions, (2) the contents of the interventions and (3) the efficacy of the intervention on GWG and the prevention of GDM. The quality of the selected studies was evaluated using the AHRQ Methods Reference Guide for Effectiveness and Comparative Effectiveness Reviews. RESULTS Of the selected 15 studies, eight included a specified diet with limited amounts of nutrients or energy, and the others included a dietary component along with other components. Ten studies reported significant differences in the measured outcomes regarding GWG or the prevention of GDM between the intervention and the control groups. CONCLUSIONS This review confirms the variability in the strategies used to deliver dietary interventions in studies aiming to limit GWG and prevent GDM in overweight and obese women. Inconsistency in the provider as well as the content of the dietary interventions leaves the difficulty of summarizing the components of effective dietary interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) is a potential risk factor for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). METHODS We systematically reviewed three electronic databases for relevant articles published in English: PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess study quality. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed to supply a pooled estimation of the OR comparing the risk of HDP among healthy pregnant women with and without excessive GWG. RESULTS The pooled estimation for the association between excessive GWG and the risk of HDPs yielded an odds ratio (OR) of 1.79 (95% CI: 1.61-1.99). A subgroup analysis showed that women who had excessive GWG were more likely to have an HDP (OR 1.82; 95% CI 1.53-2.17), preeclampsia (OR 1.92; 95% CI 1.36-2.72), or gestational hypertension (OR 1.67; 95% CI 1.43-1.95). The pooled estimation for the association between excessive GWG and the risk of HDPs among pregestational normal weight women yielded an OR of 1.57 (95% CI 1.26-1.96). A subgroup analysis showed that women who had excessive GWG were more likely to have HDP (OR 1.45; 95% CI 1.09-1.92) or gestational hypertension (OR 1.51; 95% CI 1.22-1.86). The summary ORs of pre-gestational underweight women and pre-gestational overweight and obese women were 2.17 (95% CI 1.56-3.02) and 1.32 (95% CI 1.08-1.63), respectively. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this study suggest that excessive GWG in accordance with the IOM recommendations influences the rate of HDP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), an obstetric disease that affects the health of pregnant women, is one of the key factors associated with perinatal mortality or disease. AIMS To explore the impact of prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) on perinatal outcomes for women with GDM. METHODS With a retrospective study design, women were recruited who received prenatal checkups, gave birth at two teaching hospitals in southern Taiwan from 1995 to 2011, and received a diagnosis of GDM by an obstetrician. A trained research assistant collected the participants' data in each hospital's archives room. The researcher used a retrospective case study method to identify women who received a GDM diagnosis between 1995 and 2011. RESULTS Women with GDM and with an overweight prepregnancy BMI were more likely to have cesarean deliveries and to use glucose-lowering medicines after delivery. Their newborns also had a higher birth weight. In addition, gestational hypertension and cesarean delivery were more common in women with GDM and with excessive GWG than in women with GDM and with normal GWG. The newborns of women with GDM and with excessive GWG had higher birth weights and more nuchal cord than those of women with GDM and with normal GWG. More women with GDM and with excessive GWG underwent blood glucose monitoring than did women with GDM and with normal GWG. LINKING EVIDENCE TO ACTION The prepregnancy weight and GWG significantly affected perinatal outcomes in both the women with GDM themselves and their newborns. Healthcare professionals must provide childbearing women with additional health education in the areas of health promotion, nutrition, weight control, exercise, and maintaining regular everyday lives.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common obstetric complication. Half of women who have GDM will go on to develop type 2 diabetes. Understanding the mechanisms by which this occurs requires an animal model of GDM without ongoing diabetes at conception. C57Bl/6J mice react acutely to a high-fat, high-sucrose (HFHS) challenge. Here, we hypothesized that a periconceptional HFHS challenge will induce glucose intolerance during gestation. C57Bl/6J female mice were placed on an HFHS either 1 or 3 weeks prior to mating and throughout pregnancy. Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests, insulin measurements, and histological analysis of pancreatic islets were used to assess the impact of acute HFHS. C57Bl/6J females fed HFHS beginning 1 week prior to pregnancy became severely glucose intolerant, with reduced insulin response to glucose, and decreased pancreatic islet expansion during pregnancy compared to control mice. These GDM characteristics did not occur when the HFHS diet was started 3 weeks prior to mating, suggesting the importance of acute metabolic stress. Additionally, HFHS feeding resulted in only mild insulin resistance in nonpregnant females. When the diet was discontinued at parturition, symptoms resolved within 3 weeks. However, mice that experienced glucose intolerance in pregnancy became glucose intolerant more readily in response to a HFHS challenge later in life than congenic females that experienced a normal pregnancy, or that were fed the same diet outside of pregnancy. Thus, acute HFHS challenge in C57Bl/6 mice results in a novel, nonobese, animal model that recapitulates the long-term risk of developing type 2 diabetes following GDM.

The trends and risk factors to predict adverse outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus: a 10-year experience from 2006 to 2015 in a single tertiary center. Obstet Gynecol Sci 2018; 61:309-318. [PMID: 29780772 PMCID: PMC5956113 DOI: 10.5468/ogs.2018.61.3.309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2017] [Revised: 10/10/2017] [Accepted: 10/13/2017] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the change of maternal characteristics, delivery and neonatal outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) over recent 10 years and to identify the risk factors associated with adverse outcome. Methods Consecutive GDM patients (n=947) delivered in our institution were included. Research period was arbitrarily divided into 2 periods (period 1: from 2006 to 2010, period 2: from 2011 to 2015). Multiple pregnancies or preexisting diabetes were excluded. Maternal baseline characteristics, delivery and neonatal outcomes were reviewed. Fetal biometric findings by prenatal ultrasonography were collected. Adverse pregnancy outcome (APO) was defined by the presence of one of the followings; shoulder dystocia, neonatal macrosomia (>4 kg), neonatal hypoglycemia (<35 mg/dL), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), and admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in term pregnancy. Results Period 2 was associated with older maternal age (34 vs. 33, P<0.001) and higher proportion of GDM A2 compared to period 1 (30.9% vs. 23.0%, P=0.009). By univariate analysis, APO was associated with increased body mass index (BMI) at pre-pregnancy (23.4 kg/m2 vs. 21.8 kg/m2, P=0.001) or delivery (27.9 kg/m2 vs. 25.8 kg/m2, P<0.001), higher HbA1c at diagnosis (5.6% vs. 5.3%, P<0.001) or delivery (5.8% vs. 5.5%, P=0.044), and larger fetal biometric findings (abdominal circumference [AC] and estimated fetal weight, P=0.029 and P=0.007, respectively). Multivariate analysis showed pre-pregnancy BMI (odds ratio [OR], 1.101; 90% confidence interval [CI], 1.028–1.180) and fetal AC (OR, 1.218; 90% CI, 1.012–1.466) were independently associated with adverse outcomes. Conclusion Our study demonstrated the trends and relevant factors associated with the adverse outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the associations between maternal metabolic parameters and early childhood BMI trajectories. METHODS Two thousand two hundred fifty-one children born in Spain between 2004 and 2008 were analyzed. Five BMI z score trajectories from birth to age 4 years were identified by using latent class growth analysis. Multinomial regression assessed the associations between maternal metabolic parameters and offspring's BMI trajectories. RESULTS Children in the reference BMI trajectory had average size at birth followed by a slower BMI gain. Maternal prepregnancy obesity was associated with trajectories of accelerated BMI gain departing from either higher (relative risk ratio [RRR] = 1.77; 95% CI: 1.07-2.91) or lower size at birth (RRR = 1.91; 95% CI: 1.17-3.12). Gestational weight gain (GWG) above clinical guidelines was associated with a trajectory of higher birth size followed by accelerated BMI gain (RRR = 2.14; 95% CI: 1.53-2.97). Maternal serum triglycerides were negatively associated with BMI trajectories departing from lower birth sizes. Gestational diabetes, maternal serum cholesterol, and C-reactive protein were unrelated to children's BMI trajectories. CONCLUSIONS Maternal prepregnancy obesity, GWG, and serum triglycerides are associated with longitudinal BMI trajectories in early childhood that may increase disease risk in later life. Health initiatives should promote healthy weight status before and during pregnancy to improve maternal and child health.

Abstract
Objective The present study tested the association between both mothers’ and offspring’s intelligence and offspring’s body mass index (BMI) in youth. Method Participants were members of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY-79) Children and Young Adults cohort (n = 11,512) and their biological mothers who were members of the NLSY-79 (n = 4932). Offspring’s IQ was measured with the Peabody Individual Achievement Test (PIAT). Mothers’ IQ was measured with the Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT). A series of regression analyses tested the association between IQ and offspring’s BMI by age group, while adjusting for pre-pregnancy BMI and family SES. The analyses were stratified by sex and ethnicity (non-Black and non-Hispanic, Black, and Hispanic). Results The following associations were observed in the fully adjusted analyses. For the non-Blacks and non-Hispanics, a SD increment in mothers’ IQ was negatively associated with daughters’ BMI across all age-groups, ranging from β = −0.12 (95% CI −0.22 to −0.02, p = 0.021) in late childhood, to β = −0.17 (95% C.I. −0.27 to −0.07, p = 0001), in early adolescence and a SD increment in boys’ IQ was positively associated with their BMI in early adolescence β = 0.09 (95% CI 0.01–0.18, p = 0.031). For Blacks, there was a non-linear relationship between mothers’ IQ and daughters’ BMI across childhood and between girls’ IQ and BMI across adolescence. There was a positive association between mothers’ IQ and sons’ BMI in early adolescence (β = 0.17, 95% CI 0.02–0.32, p = 0.030). For Hispanic boys, there was a positive IQ-BMI association in late childhood (β = 0.19, 95% CI 0.05–0.33, p = 0.008) and early adolescence (β = 0.17, 95% CI 0.04–0.31, p = 0.014). Conclusion Mothers’ IQ and offspring’s IQ were associated with offspring’s BMI. The relationships varied in direction and strength across ethnicity, age group and sex. Obesity interventions may benefit from acknowledging the heterogeneous influence that intelligence has on childhood BMI.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of maternal fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and pre-pregnancy weight status (PPWS) on offspring birth measures and body mass index z-score (BMI-z) in the first year, we conducted a prospective study of 1,096 mother-infant dyads in Guangdong, China, 2014–2015. Multivariate logistic regression was used to test independent/interaction associations of maternal FPG and PPWS with macrosomia/large for gestational age (LGA). Association of PPWS and FPG with offspring BMI-z in the first year was assessed by the linear mixed effects models. For each 1-mmol/L increase in FPG, the risk of macrosomia and LGA was elevated by 2.74 and 2.01 (95% CI: 1.85, 7.60 and 1.54, 5.88), respectively. No main effect of PPWS or interaction association of FPG and PPWS on macrosomia/LGA was observed (P > 0.05). A relation between maternal FPG and PPWS was detected (P < 0.05). Infants of Q5 FPG mothers, those who were born to OWO mothers, had a 0.35 increase in the BMI-z (95% CI: 0.16, 0.55) compared with infants of NW mothers. In conclusion, maternal FPG is positively associated with macrosomia/LGA. Maternal PPWS and FPG considerably interacted for the association with the risk of offspring high BMI-z in the first year.
