Genetic and maternal environmental contributions to estimated fetal weight at 20 weeks gestation compared with birthweight

2026-06-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Birthweight reflects fetal growth from conception. The complications arising from the extremes of fetal growth are well known, but addressing these effectively depends on understanding how and when fetal growth is affected by various maternal and fetal factors. We aimed to compare associations of fetal genetic and maternal environmental factors with fetal weight mid-pregnancy and birthweight...
