Adipokine levels during the first or early second trimester of pregnancy and subsequent risk of gestational diabetes mellitus: A systematic review.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to systematically review available literature linking adipokines to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) for a comprehensive understanding of the roles of adipokines in the development of GDM.We searched PubMed/MEDLINE and EMBASE databases for published studies on adipokines and GDM through October 21, 2014. We included articles if they had a prospective study design (i.e., blood samples for adipokines measurement were collected before GDM diagnosis). Random-effects models were used to pool the weighted mean differences comparing levels of adipokines between GDM cases and non-GDM controls.Of 1523 potentially relevant articles, we included 25 prospective studies relating adipokines to incident GDM. Our meta-analysis of nine prospective studies on adiponectin and eight prospective studies on leptin indicated that adiponectin levels in the first or early second trimester of pregnancy were 2.25 ?g/ml lower (95% CI: 1.75-2.75), whereas leptin levels were 7.25 ng/ml higher (95% CI 3.27-11.22), among women who later developed GDM than women who did not. Prospective data were sparse and findings were inconsistent for visfatin, retinol binding protein (RBP-4), resistin, tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and vaspin. We did not identify prospective studies for several novel adipokines, including chemerin, apelin, omentin, or adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein. Moreover, no published prospective studies with longitudinal assessment of adipokines and incident GDM were identified.Adiponectin levels in the first or second trimester of pregnancy are lower among pregnant women who later develop GDM than non-GDM women, whereas leptin levels are higher. Well-designed prospective studies with longitudinal assessment of adipokines during pregnancy are needed to understand the trajectories and dynamic associations of adipokines with GDM risk.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate whether soluble frizzled-related protein 4 (sFRP4) concentration in the first trimester of pregnancy is individually, or in combination with Leptin, Chemerin and/or Adiponectin, associated with the development of gestational diabetes (GDM).MethodsIn a nested case-control study, 50 women with GDM who spontaneously conceived and delivered a live-born infant were matched with a total of 100 uncomplicated singleton control pregnancies based on body mass index (± 2 kg/m2), gestational age at sampling (exact day) and maternal age (± 2 years). In serum samples, obtained between 70-90 days gestational age, sFRP4, Chemerin, Leptin and Adiponectin concentrations were determined by ELISA. Statistical comparisons were performed using univariate and multi-variate logistic regression analysis after logarithmic transformation of the concentrations. Discrimination of the models was assessed by the area under the curve (AUC).ResultsFirst trimester sFRP4 concentrations were significantly increased in GDM cases (2.04 vs 1.93 ng/ml; p<0.05), just as Chemerin (3.19 vs 3.15 ng/ml; p<0.05) and Leptin (1.44 vs 1.32 ng/ml; p<0.01). Adiponectin concentrations were significantly decreased (2.83 vs 2.94 ng/ml; p<0.01) in GDM cases. Further analysis only showed a weak, though significant, correlation of sFRP4 with Chemerin (R2 = 0.124; p<0.001) and Leptin (R2 = 0.145; p<0.001), and Chemerin with Leptin (R2 = 0.282; p<0.001) in the control group. In a multivariate logistic regression model of these four markers, only Adiponectin showed to be significantly associated with GDM (odds ratio 0.12, 95%CI 0.02-0.68). The AUC of this model was 0.699 (95%CI 0.605-0.793).ConclusionIn the first trimester of pregnancy, a multi-marker model with sFRP4, Leptin, Chemerin and Adiponectin is associated with the development of GDM. Therefore, this panel seems to be an interesting candidate to further evaluate for prediction of GDM in a prospective study.

Project description:BackgroundSARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including fetal death and preterm birth. It is not known whether that risk occurs only during the time of acute infection or whether the risk persists later in pregnancy.ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate whether the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy persists after an acute maternal illness.Study designA retrospective cohort study of pregnant patients with and without SARS-CoV-2 infection delivering at 17 hospitals in the United States between March 2020 and December 2020. Patients experiencing a SARS-CoV-2-positive test at or before 28 weeks of gestation with a subsequent delivery hospitalization were compared with those without a positive SAR-CoV-2 test at the same hospitals with randomly selected delivery days during the same period. Deliveries occurring at <20 weeks of gestation in both groups were excluded. The study outcomes included fetal or neonatal death, preterm birth at <37 weeks of gestation and <34 weeks of gestation, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), any major congenital malformation, and size for gestational age of <5th or <10th percentiles at birth based on published standards. HDP that were collected included HDP and preeclampsia with severe features, both overall and with delivery at <37 weeks of gestation.ResultsOf 2326 patients who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 during pregnancy and were at least 20 weeks of gestation at delivery from March 2020 to December 2020, 402 patients (delivering 414 fetuses or neonates) were SARS-CoV-2 positive before 28 weeks of gestation and before their admission for delivery; they were compared with 11,705 patients without a positive SARS-CoV-2 test. In adjusted analyses, those with SARS-CoV-2 before 28 weeks of gestation had a subsequent increased risk of fetal or neonatal death (2.9% vs 1.5%; adjusted relative risk, 1.97; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-3.85), preterm birth at <37 weeks of gestation (19.6% vs 13.8%; adjusted relative risk, 1.29; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.63), and HDP with delivery at <37 weeks of gestation (7.2% vs 4.1%; adjusted relative risk, 1.74; 95% confidence interval, 1.19-2.55). There was no difference in the rates of preterm birth at <34 weeks of gestation, any major congenital malformation, and size for gestational age of <5th or <10th percentiles. In addition, there was no significant difference in the rate of gestational hypertension overall or preeclampsia with severe features.ConclusionThere was a modest increase in the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes after SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Project description:PurposeTo investigate and identify first-trimester fasting plasma glucose (FPG) is related to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and other adverse pregnancy outcomes in Shenzhen population.MethodsWe used data of 48,444 pregnant women that had been retrospectively collected between 2017 and 2019. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluated the associations between first-trimester FPG and GDM and adverse pregnancy outcomes, and used to construct a nomogram model for predicting the risk of GDM. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated by using ROC and calibration curves. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to determine the clinical usefulness of the first-trimester FPG by quantifying the net benefits at different threshold probabilities.ResultsThe mean first-trimester FPG was 4.62 ± 0.42 mmol/L. A total of 6998 (14.4%) pregnancies developed GDM.489(1.01%) pregnancies developed polyhydramnios, the prevalence rates of gestational hypertensive disorder (GHD), cesarean section, primary cesarean section, preterm delivery before 37 weeks (PD) and dystocia was 1130 (2.33%), 20,426 (42.16%), 7237 (14.94%), 2386 (4.93%), and 1865 (3.85%), respectively. 4233 (8.74%) of the newborns were LGA, and the number of macrosomia was 2272 (4.69%), LBW was 1701 (3.51%) and 5084 (10.49%) newborns had admission to the ICU, which all showed significances between GDM and non-GDM groups (all P < 0.05). The univariate analysis showed that first-trimester FPG was strongly associated with risks of outcomes including GDM, cesarean section, macrosomia, GHD, primary cesarean section, and LGA (all OR > 1, all P < 0.05), furthermore, the risks of GDM, primary cesarean section, and LGA was increasing with first-trimester FPG as early as it was at 4.19-4.63 mmol/L. The multivariable analysis showed that the risks of GDM (ORs for FPG 4.19-4.63, 4.63-5.11 and 5.11-7.0 mmol/L were 1.137, 1.592, and 4.031, respectively, all P < 0.05) increased as early as first-trimester FPG was at 4.19-4.63 mmol/L, and first-trimester FPG which was also associated with the risks of cesarean section, macrosomia and LGA (OR for FPG 5.11-7.0 mmol/L of cesarean section: 1.128; OR for FPG 5.11-7.0 mmol/L of macrosomia: 1.561; OR for FPG 4.63-5.11 and 5.11-7.0 mmol/L of LGA: 1.149 and 1.426, respectively, all P < 0.05) and with its increasing, the risks of LGA increased. Furthermore, the nomogram had a C-indices 0.771(95% CI: 0.763~0.779) and 0.770(95% CI:0.758~0.781) in training and testing validation respectively, which showed an acceptable consistency between the observed, validation and nomogram-predicted probabilities, the DAC curve analysis indicated that the nomogram had important clinical application value for GDM risk prediction.ConclusionsFPG in the first trimester was an independent risk factor for GDM which can be used as a screening test for identifying pregnancies at risk of GDM and adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Project description:Healthy pregnancy requires a coordinated immune response, yet complications can arise, putting both the mother's and child's health at risk. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are pregnancy-related complications that account for most maternal morbidity and mortality. Cytokines are proteins released as part of the immune response to disease or infection and regulate inflammation. Certain pregnancy complications cause localized and systemic inflammation; however, cytokine profiles specific to such complications are not well understood. This study aims to examine associations between pregnancy complications of HDP and GDM and cytokine profiles in the second trimester of pregnancy. Data was obtained from the All Our Families birth cohort in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The cohort collected questionnaires at the time of participant enrollment and maternal blood samples at 17-23 weeks gestation. Cases of HDP (n = 27) and GDM (n = 31) were matched to controls on BMI, maternal age, and smoking status in the preconception period at a 1:3 ratio. Cytokine levels were measured in blood samples using Luminex xMAP technology using a panel of 42 cytokines. Using R software, a Classification and Regression Tree (CART) analysis was conducted to identify cytokine profiles and levels associated with each complication. Four cytokines were identified in the HDP CART (in descending order of importance): Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (cut-off: <480pg/mL), Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1β (cut-off: ≥26pg/mL), Eotaxin (cut-off: <27/≥27&<36/≥36pg/mL), and Soluble Cluster of Differentiation 40 Ligand (cut-off: <1342pg/mL). Six cytokine levels were identified in the GDM CART: Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist (IL-1Ra; cut-off: <25pg/mL), Interleukin-5 (cut-off: ≥0.4pg/mL), Interferon-γ (cut-off: <4.9pg/mL), IL-1Ra (cut-off: ≥111pg/mL), Eotaxin (cut-off: ≥21pg/mL), and Interleukin-18 (cut-off: ≥155pg/mL). By examining the complex inter-relationships between cytokines, findings of cytokine profiles guide further research in identifying biomarkers of pregnancy complications relevant to the design of the future management or prevention of these conditions.
