Uric acid (UA) levels are associated with many diseases including those related to lifestyle. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of clinical and anthropometric parameters on UA and xanthine (X) levels during pregnancy and postpartum in women with physiological pregnancy and pregnancy complicated by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and to evaluate their impact on adverse perinatal outcomes. A total of 143 participants were included. Analyte levels were determined by HPLC with ...[more]

Project description:AimsTo explore the association between higher serum ferritin (SF) levels in mid-pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) pregnancies, then develop a predictive cut-off value that might effectively predict the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in future clinical.MethodsThe study involved 201 pregnant women with GDM. 201 gestational age and parity matched normoglycemic pregnant women were taken as control group. The differences in clinical data were compared by the Mann-Whitney U test and Chi-square tests. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the relationship between SF and GDM-relate adverse pregnancy outcomes. The predicted value of SF level was determined through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.ResultsSF level was significantly higher in women with GDM [16.10 (27.30-9.50) (ng/mL) vs. 12.04 (18.11-7.06) (ng/mL), (p < 0.001)]. Meanwhile, higher levels of SF were also discovered in GDM women with preeclampsia and neonatal hypoglycemia and respiratory distress (all p < 0.05). In the adjusted model, a positive association was shown between SF and preeclampsia [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.032, 95%CI = 1.004-1.060, p = 0.024], neonatal hypoglycemia [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.047, 95%CI = 1.022-1.072, p < 0.001] and respiratory distress outcomes (AOR = 1.034, 95%CI = 1.011-1.058, p = 0.004) respectively. The area under ROC curve (AUC) for prediction of preeclampsia by SF combined with serum calcium, age, pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain (GWG) was 0.658 (95% CI = 50.8-80.8%, p = 0.028) with the cut-off value of 24.45 ng/mL, and the sensitivity and specificity were 58.8.0% and 64.3%, respectively. To predict neonatal hypoglycemia, the clinical point value of SF was 27.43 ng/mL with AUC was 0.800, sensitivity and specificity was 90.5% and 68.0% respectively. Predicting neonatal respiratory distress, the AUC value of the SF level was 0.730, with a cut-off value of 27.37 ng/mL and the sensitivity and specificity were 52.0% and 86.5%, respectively.ConclusionsHigher level of SF in mid-pregnancy was significantly associated with the risk of GDM and GDM-relate adverse pregnancy outcomes. Moreover, SF levels have moderate clinical value in predicting the adverse outcomes of maternal preeclampsia, neonatal hypoglycemia and respiratory distress.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the association between gestational diabetes mellitus and adverse outcomes of pregnancy after adjustment for at least minimal confounding factors.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis.Data sourcesWeb of Science, PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, from 1 January 1990 to 1 November 2021.Review methodsCohort studies and control arms of trials reporting complications of pregnancy in women with gestational diabetes mellitus were eligible for inclusion. Based on the use of insulin, studies were divided into three subgroups: no insulin use (patients never used insulin during the course of the disease), insulin use (different proportions of patients were treated with insulin), and insulin use not reported. Subgroup analyses were performed based on the status of the country (developed or developing), quality of the study, diagnostic criteria, and screening method. Meta-regression models were applied based on the proportion of patients who had received insulin.Results156 studies with 7 506 061 pregnancies were included, and 50 (32.1%) showed a low or medium risk of bias. In studies with no insulin use, when adjusted for confounders, women with gestational diabetes mellitus had increased odds of caesarean section (odds ratio 1.16, 95% confidence interval 1.03 to 1.32), preterm delivery (1.51, 1.26 to 1.80), low one minute Apgar score (1.43, 1.01 to 2.03), macrosomia (1.70, 1.23 to 2.36), and infant born large for gestational age (1.57, 1.25 to 1.97). In studies with insulin use, when adjusted for confounders, the odds of having an infant large for gestational age (odds ratio 1.61, 1.09 to 2.37), or with respiratory distress syndrome (1.57, 1.19 to 2.08) or neonatal jaundice (1.28, 1.02 to 1.62), or requiring admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (2.29, 1.59 to 3.31), were higher in women with gestational diabetes mellitus than in those without diabetes. No clear evidence was found for differences in the odds of instrumental delivery, shoulder dystocia, postpartum haemorrhage, stillbirth, neonatal death, low five minute Apgar score, low birth weight, and small for gestational age between women with and without gestational diabetes mellitus after adjusting for confounders. Country status, adjustment for body mass index, and screening methods significantly contributed to heterogeneity between studies for several adverse outcomes of pregnancy.ConclusionsWhen adjusted for confounders, gestational diabetes mellitus was significantly associated with pregnancy complications. The findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the adverse outcomes of pregnancy related to gestational diabetes mellitus. Future primary studies should routinely consider adjusting for a more complete set of prognostic factors.Review registrationPROSPERO CRD42021265837.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the effect of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on perinatal outcomes and establish a prediction model of adverse perinatal outcomes in women with ICP.MethodsThis multicenter retrospective cohort study included the clinical data of 2,178 pregnant women with ICP, including 1,788 women with ICP and 390 co-occurrence ICP and GDM. The data of all subjects were collected from hospital electronic medical records. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to compare the incidence of perinatal outcomes between ICP with GDM group and ICP alone group.ResultsBaseline characteristics of the population revealed that maternal age (p < 0.001), pregestational weight (p = 0.01), pre-pregnancy BMI (p < 0.001), gestational weight gain (p < 0.001), assisted reproductive technology (ART) (p < 0.001), and total bile acid concentration (p = 0.024) may be risk factors for ICP with GDM. Furthermore, ICP with GDM demonstrated a higher association with both polyhydramnios (OR 2.66) and preterm labor (OR 1.67) compared to ICP alone. Further subgroup analysis based on the severity of ICP showed that elevated total bile acid concentrations were closely associated with an increased risk of preterm labour, meconium-stained amniotic fluid, and low birth weight in both ICP alone and ICP with GDM groups. ICP with GDM further worsened these outcomes, especially in women with severe ICP. The nomogram prediction model effectively predicted the occurrence of preterm labour in the ICP population.ConclusionsICP with GDM may result in more adverse pregnancy outcomes, which are associated with bile acid concentrations.

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:ContextUniversal early-pregnancy screening for overt diabetes reveals intermediate hyperglycemia (fasting plasma glucose [FPG] [5.1-6.9 mM]).ObjectiveWe evaluated the association between early-pregnancy intermediate hyperglycemia and adverse pregnancy outcomes among women without gestational diabetes.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study was conducted at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Shanghai, China, from 2013 to 2017. All singleton pregnancies with FPG less than or equal to 6.9 mM in early pregnancy and receiving a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were included. Women with prepregnancy diabetes were excluded. Individuals with normal OGTT were analyzed. Pregnancy outcomes for FPG less than 5.1 mM and intermediate hyperglycemia were evaluated. The primary outcomes were large for gestational age (LGA) and primary cesarean delivery. Multivariate logistic regressions were conducted. Statistical significance was defined as P less than .05.ResultsIn total, 24 479 deliveries were included, of which 23 450 (95.8%) had normal OGTTs later in pregnancy (NGT). There were 807 (3.4%) women who had an FPG of 5.1 to 6.9 mM in early pregnancy. Compared to the NGT group with an FPG of less than 5.1 mM in early pregnancy (N = 20692), the intermediate hyperglycemia NGT group (N = 693) had a higher age and body mass index (BMI), and significantly higher rates of LGA, primary cesarean delivery, preterm birth, preeclampsia, and neonatal distress. The rates of primary cesarean delivery (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 1.24; 95% CI, 1.05-1.45), preterm birth (AOR 1.75; 95% CI, 1.29-2.36), and neonatal distress (AOR 3.29; 95% CI, 1.57-6.89) remained statistically significantly higher after adjustments for maternal age, BMI, and other potential confounding factors.ConclusionWomen with intermediate hyperglycemia in early pregnancy are at an increased risk for adverse maternal-fetal outcomes, even with normal future OGTTs.

Project description:ObjectivesIt is uncertain whether the treatment of mild gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) improves pregnancy outcomes. The aim of this systemic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the effect of mild GDM treatment on adverse pregnancy outcomes.MethodsA comprehensive literature search was conducted on the databases of PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar to retrieve studies that compared interventions for the treatment of mild GDM with usual antenatal care. The fixed/random effects models were used for the analysis of heterogeneous and non-heterogeneous results. Publication bias was assessed using the Harbord test. Also, the DerSimonian and Laird, and inverse variance methods were used to calculate the pooled odds ratio of events. The quality assessment of the included studies was performed using the Modified Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment scale and the CONSORT checklist. In addition, the risk of bias was evaluated using the Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing risk of bias.ResultsThe systematic review and meta-analysis involved ten studies consisting of 3317 pregnant women who received treatment for mild GDM and 4407 untreated counterparts. Accordingly, the treatment of mild GDM significantly reduced the risk of macrosomia (OR = 0.3; 95%CI = 0.3-0.4), large for gestational age (OR = 0.4; 95%CI = 0.3-0.5), shoulder dystocia (OR = 0.3; 95%CI = 0.2-0.6), caesarean-section (OR = 0.8; 95%CI = 0.7-0.9), preeclampsia (OR = 0.4; 95%CI = 0.3-0.6), elevated cord C-peptide (OR = 0.7; 95%CI = 0.6-0.9), and respiratory distress syndrome (OR = 0.7; 95%CI = 0.5-0.9) compared to untreated counterparts. Moreover, the risk of induced labor significantly increased in the treated group compared to the untreated group (OR = 1.3; 95%CI = 1.0-1.6). However, no statistically significant difference was observed between the groups in terms of small for gestational age, hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, birth trauma, admission to the neonatal intensive care unit, and preterm birth. Sensitivity analysis based on the exclusion of secondary analysis data was all highly consistent with the main data analysis.ConclusionTreatment of mild GDM reduced the risk of selected important maternal outcomes including preeclampsia, macrosomia, large for gestational age, cesarean section, and shoulder dystocia without increasing the risk of small for gestational age. Nevertheless, the treatment could not reduce the risk of neonatal metabolic abnormalities or several complications in newborn.

Project description:BackgroundThe prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has been dramatically increasing worldwide. The aims of this study were to examine associations of GDM with pregnancy outcomes in Chinese urban women and to evaluate the interaction between GDM and other major risk factors for the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.MethodsA retrospective analysis included 8844 women who delivered live singletons at ≥28 weeks of gestation between June 2012 and March 2013 among Chinese urban women. Structured questionnaires were used to collect information on demographic characteristics, lifestyle behavior, medical history, and pregnancy outcomes. The diagnosis of GDM was made between 24 and 28 gestational weeks according to the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups criteria. Logistic regression models were used to assess the association of GDM with pregnancy outcomes and to examine the interaction between GDM and other major risk factors including maternal age, prepregnancy body mass index, and gestational weight gain for the risk of pregnancy outcomes.Results13.9% of women were diagnosed with GDM. We found that GDM was associated with higher risk of cesarean delivery (odds ratio (OR) = 1.69, 95% CI (confidence interval): 1.48-1.92), preterm birth (OR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.07-1.64), macrosomia (OR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.34-2.13), and large for gestational age (LGA, OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.18-1.73) after adjustment for potential confounders. We also observed the interaction between GDM and maternal age for the risk of cesarean delivery (P for interaction = 0.025), and the OR of GDM for cesarean delivery was 1.71 (95% CI: 1.49-1.97) among women aged less than 35 years.ConclusionsGDM was associated with an increased risk of cesarean delivery, preterm birth, macrosomia, and LGA in Chinese urban women, and there was an interaction between GDM and maternal age for the risk of cesarean delivery.

Project description:BackgroundEvidence showed possible benefits of a less gestational weight gain (GWG) than the US Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommendation in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) pregnancy. Here, we aimed to explore an appropriate GWG range in GDM women according to adverse pregnancy outcomes.MethodsWe enrolled all the singleton GDM pregnant women (n = 14,213) from January 2015 to December 2018 in Xi'an, Northwest China. According to the pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), they were classified into the Underweight (< 18.5 kg/m2), Normal weight (18.5-24.9 kg/m2), Overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2) and Obesity (≥ 30.0 kg/m2) group, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). The appropriate ranges of GWG were determined based on a significant protective association (OR < 1).ResultsTotally, 12,712 participants were finally recruited. There were 1180 (9.3%), 9134 (71.9%), 2097 (16.5%), and 301 (2.4%) patients in the Underweight, Normal weight, Overweight, and Obesity groups, respectively. Adverse outcomes increased with the elevation of pre-pregnancy BMI. Among them, the risk of cesarean section was the highest, followed by large for gestational age (LGA), small for gestational age (SGA), preeclampsia, and gestational hypertension. Through the analysis of the risk of adverse outcomes in continuous GWG categories in each group, an ideal GWG range obtained in this study was as follows: 10-15.9 kg, 8-11.9 kg, 6-7.9 kg, and -5-3.9 kg for the Underweight, Normal weight, Overweight and Obesity group, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges in this study were more protective for adverse outcomes than those from IOM.ConclusionsBased on the adverse pregnancy outcomes of over 12 thousand participants, our findings showed a more stringent GWG range for GDM women than the IOM criteria recommendation.

Project description:Infants of women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are more likely to be born large for gestational age with a higher percentage body fat. Elevated maternal lipids may contribute to this. Placental lipases such as lipoprotein lipase (LPL), endothelial lipase (EL) and hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) are involved in transferring lipids from mother to fetus. Previous studies of expression of these lipases in placentae in women with diabetes in pregnancy have reported divergent results. Intracellular lipases such as adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), and HSL are central to lipid droplet metabolism. The activities of these lipases are both influenced by Perilipin 1, and ATGL is also activated by a co-factor comparative gene identification-58 (CGI-58) and inhibited by G0/G1 switch gene 2 (GS02). None of these modifying factors or ATGL have been examined previously in placenta. The purpose of this study was therefore to examine the expression of ATGL, HSL, LPL, EL, as well as Perilipin 1, GS02 and CGI-58 in term pregnancies complicated by GDM. mRNA and protein expression of the lipases were measured in placentae from 17 women with GDM and 17 normoglycaemic pregnancies, matched for maternal BMI and gestational age of delivery. ATGL mRNA expression was increased and HSL mRNA expression reduced in placentae from GDM although there was no differences in protein expression of any of the lipases. All lipases were localised to trophoblasts and endothelial cells. The expression of Perilipin 1 and CGI-58 mRNA was increased and GS02 not altered in GDM. These results suggest that there is no difference in expression in these four lipases between GDM and normoglycaemic placentae, and therefore altered lipid transfer via these lipases does not contribute to large for gestational age in infants of women with GDM.

Project description:BackgroundFacing the increasing prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), this study aimed to evaluate the management of GDM and its association with adverse pregnancy outcomes.MethodsThe data of 996 inpatients with GDM who terminated pregnancies in our hospital from January 2011 to December 2015 were collected. Treatments during pregnancy and the last hospital admission before delivery were analyzed. Pregnancy outcomes of the GDM patients were compared with 996 nondiabetic subjects matched by delivery year and gestational age. The association between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and adverse pregnancy outcomes was examined by logistic regression analyses.ResultsThe average prevalence of GDM over the 5 years was 4.4% (1330/30,191). Within the GDM patients, 42.8% (426/996) received dietary intervention, whereas 19.1% (190/996) received insulin treatment. Adverse outcomes were more likely to occur in patients with unsatisfactory control of blood glucose such as respiratory distress syndrome (RDS, χ2 = 13.373, P < 0.01). Elevated FPG was identified as an independent risk factor for premature birth (odds ratio [OR] = 1.460, P < 0.001), neonatal care unit admission (OR = 1.284, P < 0.001), RDS (OR = 1.322, P = 0.001), and stillbirth (OR = 1.427, P < 0.001).ConclusionsManagement of GDM in the real world of clinical practice was unsatisfactory, which might have contributed to adverse pregnancy outcomes.
