Fetal liver blood flow at the beginning of the third trimester of gestation is associated positively with newborn adiposity, particularly among nonoverweight/nonobese mothers. This finding supports the role of fetal liver blood flow as a putative fetal adaptation underlying variation in adipose tissue accretion.
