Maternal upper‐body circumferences predict human milk adiponectin concentration (131.8)

Prenatal measures explain little of human milk adiponectin (HMA) variation. We examined whether postpartum metabolic and fat depot measures predict HMA from milk sampled concurrently. Participants underwent a morning oral glucose tolerance test, anthropometry (hip, iliac crest, waist, and under‐breast circumferences; weight and BMI), and breast expression (N=20). Serum insulin, glucose, and total adiponectin were assayed, and insulin sensitivity...
