Context: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and gestational diabetes (GDM) are two common metabolic disorders. The serum oxidative stress markers advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) have been found to be elevated in women with PCOS and GDM compared to controls. However the impact of these harmful molecules to their offspring is under investigation.Objective: To evaluate AGEs and AOPPs serum levels along wi...
