abstract = {In addition to biological factors, maternal exposures
during pregnancy can contribute to leukemogenesis in
offspring. We conducted a population-based cohort study in
Sweden to investigate the association between risk of acute
lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in offspring and maternal
anthropometrics during pregnancy. A total of 2,961,435
live-born singletons during 1983-2018 were followed from
birth to ALL diagnosis, end of age 18, or end of 2018. 1388
children were diagnosed with ALL $(55.6\%$ boys). We
observed an increased risk of ALL among daughters of
overweight/obese mothers in early pregnancy [Body mass index
(BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2; Standardized incidence ratio (SIR) =
1.4, $95\%$ CI: 1.2-1.6] compared with the risk in daughters
of mothers with normal BMI. This association was not found
in their sons (SIR = 1.0, $95\%$ CI: 0.9-1.1). Similar
results were found for the association between ALL and
maternal BMI before delivery. We did not find an association
between low or high gestational weight gain (GWG) and risk
of ALL (both SIRs = 1.0) in male/female offspring. These
suggest that maternal overweight/obesity are important risk
factors for childhood ALL in daughters, whereas GWG is not
associated with risk of ALL. Further research on this
mother-daughter association may shed light on a possible sex
hormone/chromosome-related etiology of ALL.},
