Reduced beta cell function in offspring of mothers with young-onset type 2 diabetes.
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Animal models indicate that even exposure to mild maternal hyperglycaemia in utero is detrimental to the beta cell function of the offspring, but evidence of this in humans is limited. In Europids who are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes before the age of 50 years, the risk of diabete...
