Summary
This study looked at 186 pregnant women with type 1 or type 2 diabetes to understand how fats in the blood relate to baby birth weight. Researchers measured blood fats, diet, and placenta genes. The goal is to find new ways to prevent babies from being born too large, which can cause complications.
