Abstract
CONTEXT We recently reported that the presence of glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADA) was not associated with large-for-gestational-age infants in women with hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP). OBJECTIVE We explored the association between the presence of GADA and other HIP-related adverse pregnancy outcomes. METHODS This observational prospective study, conducted at a university hospital in a suburb of Paris, France, included 1182 consecutive women with HIP measured for GADA at HIP care initiation between 2012 and 2017. Post hoc analyses for outcomes included gestational weight gain, insulin therapy, cesarean delivery, hypertensive disorders, small-for-gestational-age infant, prematurity, and neonatal hypoglycemia. RESULTS Of the 1182 women studied, 87 (7.4%) had positive (≥ 1 IU/mL) GADA. Although socioeconomic, clinical, and biological characteristics were similar across women in the positive and negative GADA groups, higher fasting plasma glucose values during early HIP screening were observed in the former (5.5 ± 1.5 vs 5.2 ± 0.7 mmol/L respectively, P < .001). At HIP care initiation, fructosamine levels were higher in women with positive GADA (208 ± 23 vs 200 ± 18 µmol/L; P < .05). In the homeostatic model assessment, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and beta secretion (HOMA-B) rates were similar in both groups. Gestational weight gain and the rates of all adverse outcomes were similar in both groups except for cesarean delivery (18.4 and 27.3% for positive and negative GADA, respectively; adjusted odds ratio 0.49 [95% CI, 0.26-0.92], P = .026). CONCLUSION Universal measurement of GADA in women with HIP highlighted that 7.4% had positive GADA. No association was observed between GADA and HIP-related adverse pregnancy outcomes, except a lower risk of cesarean delivery.

Abstract
Objective To study the predictive value of autoantibodies for type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 (T2DM) diabetes morbidity after gestational diabetes (GDM) in a 23-year follow-up study. Design Prospective population-based cohort study. Methods We studied 391 women with GDM, and 391 age- and parity-matched controls, who delivered in 1984-1994. Four autoantibodies were analysed in first-trimester blood samples: islet cell autoantibodies (ICAs), glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibodies (GADAs), insulin autoantibodies (IAAs) and insulinoma-associated antigen-2 autoantibodies (IA-2As). Two follow-up questionnaires (1995-1996, 2012-2013) were sent to assess development of T1DM and T2DM. Predictive value of autoantibodies and clinical factors were analysed by conditional linear regression and ROC analyses. Results Single autoantibody positivity was detected in 12% (41/342) of the GDM cohort and in 2.3% (8/353) of the control cohort. In the GDM cohort, 2.6% (9/342) tested positive for two autoantibodies and 2.3% (8/342) for three autoantibodies, whereas only one subject in the control cohort had two autoantibodies. ICA positivity was found in 12.5% of the cases, followed by GADA (6.0%), IA-2A (4.9%) and IAA (1.2%). In the control cohort, GADA positivity was found in 1.4%, IA-2A in 0.8%, IAA in 0.6%, and ICA in 0.3% of the subjects. Detection of ICA, GADA and/or IA-2A autoantibodies decreased T1DM-free survival time and time to diagnosis. All subjects with three positive autoantibodies developed T1DM within seven years from the GDM pregnancy. Development of T2DM after GDM occurred independent of autoantibody positivity. Conclusion Development of T1DM can be reliably predicted with GADA and ICA autoantibodies during early pregnancy.

Abstract
This review contextualizes hyperglycemia in pregnancy from a South-African perspective. It aims to create awareness of the importance of hyperglycemia in pregnancy in low-middle-income countries. We address unanswered questions to guide future research on sub-Saharan African women with hyperglycemia first detected in pregnancy (HFDP). South African women of childbearing age have the highest prevalence of obesity in sub-Saharan Africa. They are predisposed to Type 2 diabetes (T2DM), the leading cause of death in South African women. T2DM remains undiagnosed in many African countries, with two-thirds of people living with diabetes unaware. With the South African health policy's increased focus on improving antenatal care, women often gain access to screening for non-communicable diseases for the first time in pregnancy. While screening practices and diagnostic criteria for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) differ amongst geographical areas in South Africa (SA), hyperglycemia of varying degrees is often first detected in pregnancy. This is often erroneously ascribed to GDM, irrespective of the degree of hyperglycemia and not overt diabetes. T2DM and GDM convey a graded increased risk for the mother and fetus during and after pregnancy, with cardiometabolic risk accumulating across the lifespan. Resource limitations and high patient burden have hampered the opportunity to implement accessible preventative care in young women at increased risk of developing T2DM in the broader public health system in SA. All women with HFDP, including those with true GDM, should be followed and undergo glucose assessment postpartum. In SA, studies conducted early postpartum have noted persistent hyperglycemia in a third of women after GDM. Interpregnancy care is advantageous and may attain a favourable metabolic legacy in these young women, but the yield of return following delivery is suboptimal. We review the current best evidence regarding HFDP and contextualize the applicability in SA and other African or low-middle-income countries. The review identifies gaps and shares pragmatic solutions regarding clinical factors that may improve awareness, identification, diagnosis, and management of women with HFDP.

Abstract
AIMS To characterize women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) positive for type 1 diabetes-related autoimmune antibodies (T1D-related autoantibodies) in pregnancy and to evaluate their risk for long-term glucose intolerance. METHODS In a multi-centric prospective cohort study with 1843 women receiving universal screening for GDM with a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), autoantibodies were measured in women with GDM: insulin autoantibodies (IAA), islet cell antibodies (ICA), insulinoma-associated protein-2 antibodies (IA-2A) and glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADA). Long-term follow-up ( ± 4.6 years after delivery) with a 75 g OGTT and re-measurement of autoantibodies was done in women with a history of GDM and autoantibody positivity in pregnancy. RESULTS Of all women with GDM (231), 80.5% (186) received autoantibody measurement at a mean of 26.2 weeks in pregnancy, of which 8.1% (15) had one positive antibody (seven with IAA, two with ICA, four with IA-2A and two with GADA). Characteristics in pregnancy were similar but compared to women without autoantibodies, women with autoantibodies had more often gestational hypertension [33.3% (5) vs. 1.7% (3), p<0.001] and more often neonatal hypoglycemia [40.0% (6) vs. 12.5% (19), p=0.012]. Among 14 of the 15 autoantibody positive women with an early postpartum OGTT, two had impaired fasting glucose (IFG). Of the 12 women with long-term follow-up data, four tested again positive for T1D-related autoantibodies (three positive for IA-2A and one positive for ICA and IAA). Five women were glucose intolerant at the long-term follow-up of which two had IA-2A (one had IFG and one had T1D) and three without autoantibodies. There were no significant differences in long-term characteristics between women with and without autoantibodies postpartum. CONCLUSIONS Systematic screening for T1D-related autoantibodies in GDM does not seem warranted since the low positivity rate for autoantibodies in pregnancy and postpartum. At 4.6 years postpartum, five out of 12 women were glucose intolerant but only two still had autoantibodies. In women with clinically significant increased autoantibody levels during pregnancy, postpartum autoantibody re-measurement seems useful since the high risk for further increase of autoantibody levels.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
We present a case of immune-mediated diabetes mellitus, diagnosed in pregnancy upon presentation with diabetic ketoacidosis, found to have normal glucose control postpartum.
Case presentation
A 28-year-old medically uncomplicated G1P0 presented in diabetic ketoacidosis at 28.2 weeks gestation. Workup for pancreatic autoantibodies revealed indeterminate anti-islet cell antibodies and positive anti-glutamic acid antibodies. She was stabilized with intravenous fluids and insulin, and transitioned to long and short acting subcutaneous insulin. Her insulin requirements decreased over the course of her pregnancy. Spontaneous vaginal delivery occurred at 37 weeks. Her postpartum glucose control was normal without re-initiation of insulin.
Conclusions
The diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis during pregnancy should prompt further investigation into an underlying diagnosis of immune mediated diabetes. These patients should be followed closely in the postpartum period.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the difference of serum levels of 10 adipokines (apelin, chemerin, fatty acid-binding protein-4, fibroblast growth factor-21, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, nesfatin-1, omentin-1, resistin, vaspin, and visfatin) among women with gestational diabetes and healthy pregnant controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS Literature search was conducted using the Medline (1966-2018), Scopus (2004-2018), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (1999-2018), Clinicaltrials.gov (2008-2018) and Google Scholar (2004-2018) databases, along with the reference list of the included studies. RESULTS Ninety-one studies were included in the present review, with a total number of 11,074 pregnant women. A meta-analysis was not conducted due to the high inter-study heterogeneity. Current evidence suggests that fatty acid-binding protein-4 levels are significantly increased in pregnancies complicated with gestational diabetes, while no association of serum apelin and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 with the disease can be supported. Data regarding the rest adipokines are conflicting, since the available studies did not unanimously indicate a significant change of their levels in gestational diabetes. CONCLUSIONS The findings of the present systematic review suggest the promising role of fatty acid-binding protein-4 in the prediction of gestational diabetes, while inconsistent evidence exists regarding the rest novel adipokines. Future cohorts are needed to assess their predictive efficacy and fully elucidate their contribution in the disease.

Abstract
Background It is well established that the risks of insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus are elevated in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. However, the relationship between SLE pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is still obscure. We perform the present systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the relationship between GDM and SLE pregnancy. Methods According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement, relevant studies were carefully retrieved through PubMed, Cochrane library and Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang database and China Biology Medicine database from inception till 30 August 2018. GDM risk ratio (RR) of pregnant SLE patients versus controls was calculated to evaluate the association between GDM and SLE. Pooled RRs and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random effects model by R software. Results The literature retrieval identified 339 potential studies in total, and five studies containing 3432 pregnant participants with 248 GDM events were included finally. Pooled analysis found that the risk of GDM were not significant increased in SLE patients compared to controls (RR = 1.08, 95% CI = 0.49 to 2.41, Z = 0.19 and P = 0.848). Nevertheless, meta-regression identified that glucocorticoids use and anti-double stranded DNA antibodies positive of SLE patients were positively associated with the risk of GDM. Conclusions Our meta-analysis demonstrated that SLE pregnancy may not increase the risk of GDM, but the steroid use during pregnancy was associated with increased risk of GDM. Further large prospective and basic immunologic studies should be implemented for exploring the mechanism underlying glucocorticoids use and GDM.

Abstract
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is the most common metabolic disorder in pregnancy, and it is associated with increased risk of morbidity in maternal-fetal outcomes. GDM is also associated with a higher risk to develop diabetes in the future. Diabetes-related autoantibodies (AABs) have been detected in a small percentage (usually less than 10%) of women with gestational diabetes. The prevalence in gestational diabetes of these autoimmune markers of type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been assessed in many studies, together with the risk of progression of AABs-positive GDM towards impaired glucose regulation (IFG or IGT) and overt diabetes after pregancy. The question whether it is necessary to test for T1D autoantibodies in all pregnancies with GDM is still debated. Here we examine the epidemiology of T1D autoantibodies in GDM, their clinical relevance in term of future risk of diabetes or impaired glucose regulation and in term of maternal-fetal outcomes, and discuss when it may be the most appropriate time to search for T1D autoantibodies in women with gestational diabetes.

Abstract
Zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8) is a novel immunodominant autoantigen, associated with Type-1 diabetes. A non-synonymous polymorphism (R325W) in its gene is associated with Type-2 diabetes. In this study, we performed an in silico B cell epitope prediction followed by wetlab validation of ZnT8. Apart from the previously characterized polymorphic epitope (BE-5 TAASR*DS), two novel epitopes BE-2 (N-terminus) and BE-6 (C-terminus) were identified. Wet lab validation of these epitopes was carried out by measuring ZnT8 specific isotypes (IgG, IgM and IgA) in the sera of Normal Glucose Tolerant (NGT), Type-1 diabetic (T1DM) and Type-2 diabetic (T2DM) patients by indirect ELISA. Unexpectedly, compared to NGT, significantly decreased levels of IgG and IgA isotypes was seen in T1DM subjects without complications. IgM levels were reduced in T1DM subjects with retinopathy. Newly diagnosed T1DM subjects initiated on insulin therapy showed an increase in IgA and decrease in IgM titre. Like T1DM, significantly reduced level of IgG, IgM and IgA was seen in T2DM subjects. For the first time, we have identified novel cryptic B cell epitopes in ZnT8 autoantigen against which the naturally occurring autoantibody levels were found to be reduced in diabetes.
