Maternal diets with low healthy eating index or mediterranean diet adherence scores are associated with high cord-blood insulin levels and insulin resistance markers at birth

Background/Objectives: Few studies have used healthy eating index (HEI) and mediterranean diet adherence (MDA) scores to evaluate the diet quality during pregnancy. To determine the relationship between first trimester diet quality and insulin sensitivity/resistance biomarkers at birth. Subjects/Met...

Zusammenfassung:Background/Objectives: Few studies have used healthy eating index (HEI) and mediterranean diet adherence (MDA) scores to evaluate the diet quality during pregnancy. To determine the relationship between first trimester diet quality and insulin sensitivity/resistance biomarkers at birth. Subjects/Methods: Cord-blood insulin sensitivity/resistance biomarkers of the offspring of 35 women whose diets were ‘adequate’ or ‘inadequate’ according to their HEI score (>70 or ⩽70, respectively) and their 13-point MDA score (⩾7 or
