Glycemic profile, lipids and C‐reactive proteins
Maternal concentrations of serum total cholesterol, HDL‐cholesterol, LDL‐cholesterol, glucose, phospholipids, triglycerides and C‐reactive proteins were measured with standard spectrophotometric enzyme assays (AU5822 Clinical Chemistry Analyser, Beckman Coulter). Cord arterial and venous serum total cholesterol, HDL‐cholesterol, LDL‐cholesterol, glucose, triglycerides, and CRP were measured with spectrophotometric determination (BS‐200 Chemistry Analyzer, Mindray Bio‐medical Electronics). In addition, triglycerides/HDL‐cholesterol and LDL‐c/HDL‐c ratios were calculated (Eshriqui et al.,
