- Pregnancy leads to decreased insulin sensitivity, which can result in hyperglycemia and increased neonatal fat, while the impact of lipid metabolism on this is not fully understood.
- The study evaluated changes in maternal lipid metabolism before and during pregnancy to determine their effects on neonatal adiposity, assessing 12 women at different gestational stages.
- Results showed that while maternal free fatty acids dropped, both basal and clamp lipid metabolism increased, with significant correlations found between these metabolism measures and the amount of fat in newborns.
