Early cardiac abnormalities in obese children: importance of obesity per se versus associated cardiovascular risk factors.

abstract：:The development of amniotic fluid turbidity during the third trimester is a known marker of fetal lung maturity. We hypothesized that this turbidity results from detachment of vernix caseosa from the fetal skin secondary to interaction with pulmonary-derived phospholipids in the amniotic fluid. To test this hypothesis...
