CONTEXT Studies suggest many essential trace metal(loid)s are involved in glucose metabolism, but the associations among pregnant women are unclear. OBJECTIVE To assess associations between early pregnancy plasma zinc, selenium, copper and molybdenum and blood glucose levels later in the 2nd trimester. DESIGN Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Fetal Growth Studies - Singleton cohort, a prospective cohort study between July 2009 and January 2013. SETTING 12 academic research hospitals in the U.S. PATIENTS 1857 multi-racial non-obese healthy women. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Blood glucose levels from 1-hour 50-g gestational load test (GLT) at 24 to 28 weeks of gestation. RESULTS Higher concentrations of 1st trimester copper were associated with higher glucose levels from GLT (i.e. per 50% increase in copper concentrations was related to 4.9 mg/dL higher glucose level, 95% CI: 2.2, 7.5) adjusted for maternal socio-demographic characteristics and reproductive history. In contrast, per 50% increase in molybdenum concentrations were associated with 1.2 mg/dL lower mean glucose levels (95% CI: -2.3, -0.1). The magnitudes of these associations were greater at the upper tails of glucose level distribution based on quantile regressions of the 10th, 50th, and 90th percentiles. CONCLUSIONS Higher copper and lower molybdenum concentrations could increase the risk of glucose dysregulation during pregnancy, with women at higher risk of GDM potentially affected to a greater extent. Further work is needed to understand the mechanisms involved with early pregnancy essential metal(loid)s in order to inform clinical diagnosis and prevention for glucose intolerance during pregnancy.
