This observational study in an ethnically diverse pregnancy cohort examined relationships between human placental lactogen (hPL), maternal metabolism, and fetal outcomes. Findings support a role for hPL in metabolic adaptation to pregnancy and suggest potential utility as a marker of fetal growth. Abstract Introduction Human placental lactogen (hPL) is
