The goal of this follow-up study of mothers who participated in the Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes (HAPO) study is to determine the levels of blood sugar during pregnancy that are linked to increased body fat in the child, as well as to determine the chances of a mother developing diabetes 8-12 years after the pregnancy. The original study examined 23,316 mother-child pairs, and researchers determined that the hyperglycemia of a mother was linked to newborn birth weight and body fat. HAPO-FUS will enroll 7,000 or the original HAPO mother-child pairs for one follow-up visit to assess body composition, blucose metabolism, medical history, and other metabolic parameters.
