Diagnosis and Treatment of GestationalDiabetes Diagnosis and Treatment of GestationalDiabetes Scientific Impact Paper No. 23 January 2011Diagnosis and Treatment of GestationalDiabetes 1. Background Historically, there has been controversy over screening and diagnosis of gestationaldiabetes. The 2002 National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) Health Technology Assessment concluded that there was insufficient evidence to advocate universal screening in pregnancy while noting (...) women. The results of this large observational study formed the basis of a reconsideration of diagnosis and screening for diabetes in a consensus report published in 2010 4 under the auspices of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG). A further major trial examining the effect on pregnancy outcomes of management of gestationaldiabetes was reported in 2009, 5 while a randomised controlled trial in 2008 examined the efficacy of metformin, 6 adding to the older

Resistance exercise and glycemic control in women with gestationaldiabetes mellitus The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of a resistance exercise program with an elastic band on insulin requirement and glycemic control in patients with gestationaldiabetes mellitus (GDM).Sixty-four patients with gestationaldiabetes mellitus were randomly assigned into 2 groups: an exercise group (EG; n = 32) and a control group not submitted to the exercise program (CG; n = 32).A significant
Gestationaldiabetes mellitus: simplifying the international association of diabetes and pregnancy diagnostic algorithm using fasting plasma glucose To determine the impact of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group (IADPSG) criteria on 1) gestationaldiabetes mellitus (GDM) diagnosis compared with the American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria and 2) the fasting plasma glucose (FPG) to predict GDM.In 10,283 pregnant women undergoing a 75-g oral glucose tolerance
Oral anti-diabetic agents for women with pre-existing diabetes mellitus/impaired glucose tolerance or previous gestationaldiabetes mellitus. While most guidelines recommend the use of insulin in women whose pregnancies are affected by pre-existing diabetes, oral agents have obvious benefits for patient acceptability and adherence. It is necessary, however, to assess the effects of these anti-diabetic agents on maternal and infant health outcomes. Additionally, women with previous gestational (...) diabetes mellitus are increasingly found to be predisposed to impaired glucose tolerance and, despite the potential need for intervention for these women, there has been little evidence about the use of oral anti-diabetic agents by these women pre-conceptionally or during a subsequent pregnancy.To investigate the effect of oral anti-diabetic agents in women with pre-existing diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance or previous gestationaldiabetes planning a pregnancy or pregnant women

Included studies were randomised controlled trials of specific treatment for gestationaldiabetes compared with usual care or "intensified" compared with "less intensified" specific treatment.Five randomised controlled trials matched the inclusion criteria for specific versus usual treatment. All studies used a two step approach with a 50 g glucose challenge test or screening for risk factors, or both, and a subsequent 75 g or 100 g oral glucose tolerance test. Meta-analyses did not show significant

First-trimester follistatin-like-3 levels in pregnancies complicated by subsequent gestationaldiabetes mellitus OBJECTIVE To determine whether maternal levels of follistatin-like-3 (FSTL3), an inhibitor of activin and myostatin involved in glucose homeostasis, are altered in the first trimester of pregnancies complicated by subsequent gestationaldiabetes mellitus (GDM). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a nested case-control study of subjects enrolled in a prospective cohort of pregnant (...) women with and without GDM (> or =2 abnormal values on a 100-g glucose tolerance test at approximately 28 weeks of gestation). We measured FSTL3 levels in serum collected during the first trimester of pregnancy. Logistic regression analyses were used to determine the risk of GDM. RESULTS Women who developed GDM (n = 37) had lower first-trimester serum levels of FSTL3 compared with women who did not (n = 127) (median 10,789 [interquartile range 7,013-18,939] vs. 30,670 [18,370-55,484] pg/ml, P
Risk factors for gestationaldiabetes mellitus in Chinese women: a prospective study of 16,286 pregnant women in China To determine the incidence of gestationaldiabetes mellitus (GDM) in China and to further identify population specific risk factors for GDM.Following a universal GDM screening recommendation, 16,286 pregnant women who underwent a 50-g glucose challenge test from 18 cities in China were followed up through pregnancy. GDM was confirmed by oral glucose tolerance test according (...) to American Diabetes Association criteria.The incidence of GDM was 4.3%. Previously reported risk factors for GDM, including advanced maternal age, pre-pregnancy obesity and family history of diabetes, were strongly associated with an elevated GDM risk. Moreover, after the adjustment for the above-mentioned risk factors, a history of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis, residency in south China and a history of spontaneous abortion were significantly associated with an increased GDM risk; adjusted odds

Gestationaldiabetes: fasting capillary glucose as a screening test in a multi-ethnic, high-risk population In populations at high risk of gestationaldiabetes mellitus (GDM), screening every pregnant woman by an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is very demanding. The aim of this study was to determine the value of the fasting capillary glucose (FCG) as a screening test for GDM.FCG was measured by a plasma-correlated glucometer in 1465 pregnant women who underwent a one-step diagnostic 75-g (...) OGTT for universal screening of GDM.One hundred and ninety-six (13.4%) women had GDM as defined by the criteria of the American Diabetes Association. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the FCG was 0.83 (95% confidence interval 0.80-0.86). A FCG threshold of 4.7 mmol/l (at an acceptable sensitivity of 86.0%) independently could rule-out GDM in 731 (49.9%) women, while the FCG could rule-in GDM (100% specificity) in 16 (1.1%) additional women; therefore, approximately
