NCT02282475 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 78

Last updated 2019-01-24

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Obesity, increased abdominal fat, fat stored in the liver, and insulin resistance may all be associated with adverse maternal and fetal pregnancy outcomes. This study will examine how fat storage changes during pregnancy; and if how the body stores fat impacts one's ability to metabolize glucose (sugar) during pregnancy.
