Maternal, umbilical arterial and umbilical venous 25‐hydroxyvitamin <scp>D</scp> and adipocytokine concentrations in pregnancies with and without gestational diabetes

Abstract

GDM women had lower 25(OH)D concentrations than controls, while neonatal umbilical concentrations of 25(OH)D did not differ. GDM maternal and GDM offspring had lower adiponectin, resistin and PAI-1 concentrations compared with controls. Results suggest that both GDM women and their offspring demonstrate abnormal adipocytokine patterns.
