Changes to the Haematological Parameters of Rat Offspring Born From High Fat High Carbohydrate (HFHC) Diet-Induced Prediabetic and Preeclamptic Sprague Dawley Rats: Assessing the Effects on Selected Haematological Markers
These findings suggest prediabetes caused dysregulation of haematological parameters in offspring and may be a predisposing factor for the development of preeclampsia in pregnancy. Therefore, strict monitoring of prediabetes during pregnancy may reduce the risk of preeclampsia and resultant foetal morbidity and mortality.
