Abstract

In the prospective Chinese birth cohort "Children of 1997" (n = 7342, 88% follow-up rate), generalised estimate equations with multiple imputation were used to assess associations of in utero GDM exposure with age- and sex-specific body mass index (BMI) z-score during infancy (3 and 9 months), childhood (2- 0.4). CONCLUSIONS: In utero GDM exposure was associated with greater adiposity during childhood and adolescence.
