Application of group-based trajectory models to evaluate the association of fetal growth trajectories and childhood overweight and obesity: A longitudinal study with 2-year follow-up
These findings suggested that accelerating growth trajectory was associated with overweight or obesity in early childhood, and differences in maternal metabolic factors may alter fetal growth trajectory. This study aids in the early identification of infants susceptible to overweight or obesity.
