Association between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, placental EtP, and cord blood metabolic biomarkers The difference in mean log-transformed placental EtP values between the groups of mothers with underweight/normal pre-pregnancy BMI (0.13 ± 1.08) kg/m 2 and overweight/obese pre-pregnancy BMI (-0.15 ± 1.10) kg/m 2 was borderline significant (p = 0.062).

Maternal pre-pregnancy BMI showed a trend for an inverse correlation with placental EtP concentration (r = -0.12, p = 0.090) ( Fig. 3 A) and was significantly inversely correlated with cord blood GGT activity (r = -0.14, p = 0. 045) ( Fig. 3 B).
