Abstract
OBJECTIVE Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with increased risk for insulin resistance and the development of diabetes outside of pregnancy. In pregnancy, emerging evidence suggests that PTSD is associated with increased risk for gestational diabetes; however, it is not yet known how PTSD is associated with disruptions in glucose processing across gestation. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to test associations between PTSD symptoms and glucose parameters in early and late gestation among pregnant people without a history of pregestational diabetes. STUDY DESIGN Two 34 participants were included in these analyses. PTSD symptoms were measured using the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) in early gestation. Fasting blood samples were collected at approximately 12 and 32 gestational weeks and were used to calculate β-cell function and insulin sensitivity. RESULTS Participants were 31 years old (standard deviation [SD] = 6) with body mass index (BMI) of 36 kg/m2 (SD = 7) at enrollment, 26% reported their ethnicity as Hispanic, 62% reported their race as White, 17% Black, 2% Asian, 3% Native American, 9% more than one race, and 11% unknown/not reported. Hierarchical linear regression analyses revealed that, after adjusting for several covariates including maternal age, race, ethnicity, BMI, apnea hypopnea index, and depressive symptoms, PTSD symptoms were positively associated with β-cell function in early (β = 0.230, p = 0.016) and late gestation (β = 0.238, p = 0.037). CONCLUSION Higher PTSD symptoms were associated with greater insulin secretion over pregnancy in this sample. More research is needed to replicate these findings and evaluate the effects of treatment of PTSD on mitigating the risk for gestational diabetes. KEY POINTS · We examined associations among symptoms of PTSD and glucose parameters over pregnancy.. · Symptoms of PTSD were positively associated with β-cell function over pregnancy.. · Symptoms of PTSD were not associated with insulin resistance over pregnancy..

Abstract
AIMS This systematic review and meta-analysis examined maternal and cord blood betatrophin levels in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and normoglycemic controls. MATERIAL AND METHODS PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, LILACS, WangFang, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched for literature from inception until May 2022. The primary outcomes were maternal and cord blood betatrophin levels. A random-effect meta-analysis was used to estimate the pooled results. The mean differences (MDs) or standardised MDs (SMD) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. I2 tests were used to evaluate the heterogeneity. The quality of studies was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. RESULTS Betatrophin levels were reported in 22 studies with a total of 3034 pregnant women, and in seven studies including cord blood from 456 infants. Women with GDM display higher betatrophin levels than the normoglycemic controls (SMD = 0.85, 95% CI: 0.38-1.31) during the second half of the pregnancy. The sensitivity analysis indicated that no single study had significantly influenced the betatrophin overall outcomes. There was heterogeneity between the studies as evidenced by high I2 values. Meta-regression analysis indicated a significant regression coefficient for maternal betatrophin and glycosilated haemoglobin. There was no significant difference in cord blood betatrophin in infants from women with and without GDM (SMD = 0.34, 95% CI: -0.15-0.83). Women with GDM also had significantly higher insulin, glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin, HOMA-IR, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, and body mass index compared with the normoglycemic controls. CONCLUSIONS Maternal betatrophin levels were higher in women with GDM than in the normoglycemic controls. There was no difference in cord blood betatrophin.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To examine the association between maternal sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and glucose metabolism in early gestation. METHODS Women with body mass index (BMI) ≥27 kg/m2 and singleton pregnancies underwent in-home sleep study (HSAT) and homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) in early pregnancy. Insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and β-cell function (HOMA %B) were derived. Exclusion criteria included pregestational diabetes, use of continuous positive airway pressure and chronic steroid therapy. We performed linear regression analyses to evaluate the association between continuous measures of SDB (respiratory event index (REI), and oxygen desaturation index (ODI)) and glucose metabolism parameters (HOMA-IR and HOMA %B). Analyses were adjusted for a set of a priori selected variables which included gestational age, maternal age, BMI, ethnicity, race, and parity. RESULTS One hundred and ninety-two pregnant women with median (interquartile range) BMI of 35.14 (8.30) kg/m2 underwent HSAT and HOMA assessment at 11.14 (3) and 15.35 (4.14) gestational weeks, respectively. REI and ODI, as continuous values, were associated with HOMA-IR after adjusting for covariates. OSA (obstructive sleep apnea) diagnosis (REI > 5 events per hour) was not associated with HOMA-IR after adjusting for BMI (p ≥ 0.05). None of the parameters were associated with HOMA %B (p > 0.07). CONCLUSIONS SDB and insulin resistance are associated in early pregnancy, with a dose response association between respiratory event index severity and insulin resistance. Further studies are needed to establish if pregnant women with overweight and obesity may benefit from early SDB screening to improve glucose metabolic outcome.

Maternal obesity and degree of glucose intolerance on neonatal hypoglycaemia and birth weight: a retrospective observational cohort study in women with gestational diabetes mellitus. Eur J Pediatr 2020; 179:653-660. [PMID: 31873801 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-019-03554-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2019] [Revised: 12/11/2019] [Accepted: 12/16/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is an increasing problem worldwide. Postnatal hypoglycaemia and excess foetal growth are known important metabolic complications of neonates born to women with diabetes. This retrospective cohort study aims to determine the influence of obesity and glucose intolerance on neonatal hypoglycaemia and birth weight over the 90th percentile (LGA). Data were abstracted from 303 patient medical records from singleton pregnancies diagnosed with GDM. Data were recorded during routine hospital visits. Demographic data were acquired by facilitated questionnaires and anthropometrics measured at the first antenatal appointment. Blood biochemical indices were recorded. Plasma glucose area under the curve (PG-AUC) was calculated from OGTT results as an index of glucose intolerance. OGTT results of 303 pregnant women aged between 33.6 years (29.8-37.7) diagnosed with GDM were described. Neonates of mothers with a BMI of over 30 kg/m2 were more likely to experience neonatal hypoglycaemia (24 (9.2%) vs. 23 (8.8%), p = 0.016) with odds ratio for neonatal hypoglycaemia significantly higher at 2.105, 95% CI (1.108, 4.00), p = 0.023. ROC analysis showed poor strength of association (0.587 (95% CI, .487 to .687). Neonatal LGA was neither associated with or predicted by PG-AUC nor obesity; however, multiparous women were 2.8 (95% CI (1.14, 6.78), p = 0.024) times more likely to have a baby born LGA.Conclusion: Maternal obesity but not degree of glucose intolerance increased occurrence of neonatal hypoglycaemia. Multiparous women had greater risk of neonates born LGA.What is Known:•Excess foetal growth in utero has long-term metabolic implications which track into adulthood.•Neonatal hypoglycaemia is detrimental to newborns in the acute phase with potential long-term implications on the central nervous system.What is New:•Maternal obesity but not degree of glucose intolerance in a GDM cohort increased occurrence of neonatal hypoglycaemia.•Multiparous women diagnosed had greater risk of neonates born LGA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) complicates 1-14% of pregnancies and relates to increased risk of adverse obstetric outcomes. Currently GDM is diagnosed using an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which is burdensome and time intensive. OBJECTIVE To compare current literature on whether the homeostatic model assessment beta cell function (HOMA-β) is an accurate predictor of an abnormal OGTT in pregnant women. METHODS Pubmed, Cochrane and Embase were searched. Included studies evaluated pregnant women at risk for GDM using the homeostatic model assessment of beta cell function (HOMA-β) for the assessment of beta cell function and the OGTT. Studies with animals, non-pregnant women, women with type 2 diabetes and post-partum diabetes were excluded. The QUADAS-2 criteria were used to assess the methodological quality of studies. RESULTS A total of 12 studies were included, reporting on 7292 women. Seven studies showed a difference in beta cell function between women with impaired glucose tolerance compared to healthy pregnant women. HOMA-β is significantly lower in impaired glucose tolerance (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Although HOMA-β is lower in women with abnormal OGTT in pregnancy, given the high degree of heterogeneity of studies, we do not propagate HOMA-β as a sole diagnostic tool replacing OGTT to diagnose GDM.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to explore the association between pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) and insulin resistance (IR). A total of 50 cases of PIH and 50 healthy pregnant women with a similar gestational age were enrolled. The hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp technique was used to evaluate the degree of IR and all 100 subjects were divided into an IR and a non-IR group accordingly. Subsequently, the correlation between the systolic or diastolic blood pressure was assessed; furthermore, a homeostasis model assessment of IR (HOMA-IR), a HOMA of the insulin sensitivity index (HOMA-ISI) and a HOMA of β cell function (HOMA-β%) were performed. Moreover, the effect of IR on PIH was assessed and the protein expression of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1, phosphorylated (p)-IRS-1, AKT and p-AKT were detected in the placental plasma by western blot analysis. The results showed that in the PIH group, the p-IRS-1/IRS-1 and p-AKT/AKT ratios were decreased compared with those in the control group. Blood flow parameters, including perfusion index, retinal resistive index and systolic maximum velocity/end-diastolic velocity ratio in the IR group were higher, while time averaged velocity was lower compared with that in the non-IR group. Furthermore, the HOMA-ISI and HOMA-β% were decreased, while the HOMA-IR was increased in the PIH group compared to that in the control group; alongside the blockage of the insulin signaling pathway, these factors may therefore cause PIH. The present study may provide novel therapeutic approaches for PIH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore, by conducting a meta-analysis, whether gestational impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is an independent predictor of neonatal large for gestational age (LGA) or not. METHODS Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched to identify published epidemiological studies (cohort and case-control studies) investigating the association between gestational IGT and neonatal LGA. Calculations of pooled estimates were conducted in random-effect models or fixed-effects models. Heterogeneity was tested by using chi-square test and I2 statistics. Egger's test (linear regression method) and Begg's test (rank correlation method) were used to assess potential publication bias. RESULTS Fourteen observational studies were included in the meta-analysis. The overall risk for the effect of IGT on LGA was 2.09 (1.56, 2.78). Stratified analyses showed no differences regarding different geographic regions or the analysis of overall adjusted odds ratios. No evidence of publication bias was observed in either Egger's test or Begg's test results. CONCLUSION Gestational IGT is an independent predictor of neonatal LGA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The main aim of this study was to investigate thiol/disulfide homeostasis at 24-28 weeks of pregnancy and to evaluate whether it is predictive for adverse perinatal outcomes or not in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). METHODS A total of 110 pregnant women at 24-28 weeks of pregnancy (74 GDM patients and 36 age- and BMI-matched healthy pregnant women) were enrolled in this prospective case-control study. Thiol/disulfide homeostasis was evaluated with a novel spectrophotometric method to determine if there is an association with adverse perinatal outcomes in GDM, by using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS GDM patients, with decreased native thiol levels at 24-28 weeks (OR: 4.890, 95% CI: 1.355-5.764, p = 0.015) and with higher pre-pregnancy BMI (OR: 1.280, 95% CI: 1.072-1.528, p = 0.006), were found to be at increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes in GDM. There were no statistically significant differences in thiol/disulfide homeostasis between diet- and insulin-treated GDM subgroups. Additionally, 1-h and 2-h glucose levels on 100 g OGTT were found to be predictive for the insulin need in achieving good glycemic control in GDM (OR: 1.022, 95% CI: 1.005-1.038, p = 0.010 and OR: 1.019, 95% CI: 1.004-1.035, p = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS GDM patients, with decreased native thiol levels at 24-28 weeks of pregnancy and with higher pre-pregnancy BMI, have an increased risk of possible adverse perinatal outcomes. Also, increased 1-h and 2-h glucose levels on 100 g OGTT can predict the need for insulin treatment for GDM.

Abstract
CONTEXT To our knowledge, no study has examined the effects of soy intake on metabolic status of women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). OBJECTIVE This study was designed to assess the effects of soy intake on metabolic status of GDM women. METHODS A randomized clinical trial was performed among 68 women with GDM. Women were randomly assigned to receive either a control diet containing 0.8-g/kg protein (70% animal and 30% plant proteins) (n = 34) or a soy diet containing the same amount of protein with 35% animal protein, 35% soy protein, and 30% other plant proteins (n = 34) for 6 weeks. RESULTS Compared with soy protein consumption, the control group significantly increased fasting plasma glucose (+1.4 ± 11.6 vs -12.7 ± 13.2 mg/dL, P < .001), serum insulin levels (+5.0 ± 11.6 vs -0.9 ± 10.0 μIU/mL, P = .02), homeostasis model of assessment-insulin resistance (+1.2 ± 2.7 vs -0.8 ± 2.2, P = .002), and decreased quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (-0.007 ± 0.02 vs +0.01 ± 0.03, P = .004). Administration of the control diet resulted in a significant difference in serum triglycerides changes (+31.3 ± 38.0 vs +8.9 ± 46.1 mg/dL, P = .03) compared with soy protein. There were a significant decrease in total antioxidant capacity (-35.0 ± 136.2 vs +81.8 ± 188.8 mmol/L, P = .005) and glutathione (-41.3 ± 145.7 vs +53.3 ± 117.3 μmol/L, P = .004) by the control diet intake compared with soy protein. The control diet group had a higher incidence of newborn hyperbilirubinemia (32.4% vs 8.8%, P = .01) and newborn hospitalization (20.6% vs 2.9%, P = .02) compared with soy protein. CONCLUSION Soy protein consumption in women with GDM significantly improved the glucose homeostasis parameters, triglycerides, and biomarkers of oxidative stress, as well as reductions in the incidence of newborn hyperbilirubinemia and hospitalizations.
