Sex-specific association of immunological markers in CS-delivered newborns with pre-pregnancy body mass index and gestational weight gain of mothers by Karolina Rak, Michaela Godyla-Jabłoński, Monika Bronkowska

“…Abstract Just as overweight and obesity may impair immunity, excessive body weight-related parameters of women in the pre-conception period and during pregnancy are possible detrimental factors for fetal programming of the immune system in their offspring. We investigated the relationship of pre-pregnancy body mass index (pBMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) of mothers with the placental transport rate (PTR) of IgG antibodies and antineutrophil cytoplasmatic antibodies against lactoferrin (Lf-ANCA) and their concentration in umbilical cord blood serum (UCS), verifying the sex-specificity of this relationship. …”
