English abstract
In particular ,
Recent studies have reported positive, statistically significant associations between late maternal TG levels
Gestational and delivery weight in non-diabetic mothers regardless of glucose levels or maternal weight.
In mothers with diabetes, TG levels have been shown to be a better predictor of birth weight than glucose levels
Although
Of these very important associations, the number of human studies describing the effect of increased
Maternal TG levels over birth weight in normal pregnancies are surprisingly limited. This may be because
Understand that maternal TG does not cross the placental barrier between mother and fetus unless it is hydrolysed
Fatty acids that have not been shown to easily cross the placental barrier between mother and fetus such as glucose.
