Increasing studies demonstrated that genetic susceptibility attributes to the development of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The polymorphisms of the β-3 adrenergic receptor(β-3AR) gene have been found to be of great importance in bodyweight elevation and dyslipidaemias. We aimed to determine t...
