Journal ArticleDOI

Maternal cigarette smoking, metabolic gene polymorphism, and infant birth weight.

TL;DR: In this study, maternal CYP1A1 and GSTT1 genotypes modified the association between maternal cigarette smoking and infant birth weight, suggesting an interaction between metabolic genes and cigarette smoking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Placental transfer and concentrations of cadmium, mercury, lead, and selenium in mothers, newborns, and young children.

TL;DR: This study showed that maternal exposure to these elements was widespread in the Boston Birth Cohort, and maternal–fetal transfer was a major source of early life exposure to Hg, Pb, and Se, and suggested that RBCs are better than plasma at reflecting the trans-placental transfer of Hg-Pb- and Se from the mother to the fetus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preterm Birth and Random Plasma Insulin Levels at Birth and in Early Childhood

TL;DR: There was an inverse association between gestational age and elevated plasma insulin levels at birth and in early childhood and the implications for future development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes warrant further investigation.
