Asthma control status in pregnancy, body mass index, and maternal vitamin D levels

J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2017 Nov;140(5):1453-1456.e7. doi: 10.1016/j.jaci.2017.03.053. Epub 2017 Jun 9.

Abstract

Higher maternal 25OHD levels at early pregnancy could reduce the associated risk of uncontrolled asthma status during pregnancy. Obesity might attenuate this effect and is a predictor of uncontrolled status during pregnancy.
