Journal ArticleDOI
The association between maternal body mass index and child obesity: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Nicola Heslehurst,Rute Vieira,Rute Vieira,Zainab Akhter,Hayley Bailey,Emma Slack,Lem Ngongalah,Augustina Pemu,Judith Rankin +8 more
TL;DR: This research has identified a 264% increase in the odds of child obesity when mothers have obesity before conception, providing substantial evidence for the need to develop interventions that commence prior to conception to support women of childbearing age with weight management in order to halt intergenerational obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Congenital anomalies in twins: a register-based study
TL;DR: This study using high quality, population-based data on multiple pregnancies and congenital anomalies found that twins, particularly MC twins, have a higher risk of congenital anomaly than singletons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-existing diabetes, maternal glycated haemoglobin, and the risks of fetal and infant death: a population-based study
Peter W. G. Tennant,Svetlana V. Glinianaia,Rudy Bilous,Rudy Bilous,Judith Rankin,Judith Rankin,Ruth Bell,Ruth Bell +7 more
TL;DR: Pre-existing diabetes is associated with a substantially increased risk of fetal and infant death in normally formed offspring, the effect of which is largely moderated by glycaemic control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peri-conception hyperglycaemia and nephropathy are associated with risk of congenital anomaly in women with pre-existing diabetes: a population-based cohort study
Ruth Bell,Svetlana V. Glinianaia,Peter W. G. Tennant,Rudolf W. Bilous,Rudolf W. Bilous,Judith Rankin +5 more
TL;DR: Peri-conception glycaemia is the most important modifiable risk factor for congenital anomaly in women with diabetes, and the association with nephropathy merits further study.
