Abstract excerpt
AIM: We hypothesised that some of the genetic risk for gestational diabetes (GDM) is due to the fetal genome affecting maternal glucose concentrations. Previously, we found associations between fetal IGF2 gene variants and maternal glucose concentrations in late pregnancy. METHODS: In the present study, we tested associations between SNP alleles from 15 fetal imprinted genes and maternal glucose concentrations in...
