Fetal Growth Trajectories and Their Association with Maternal, Cord Blood, and 5-year Child Adipokines.
Conclusions: This study shows that male sex is associated with an accelerated estimated weight trajectory. Furthermore, high leptin and low adiponectin in maternal serum in late gestation are associated with a slower fetal growth trajectory. No associations were identified with blood growth markers after pregnancy.
