Macrosomia risk remains high in type 1 diabetes (T1DM) complicated pregnancies. A linear relationship between macrosomia risk and glycated hemoglobin A (HbA) was described; however, low range of HbA has not been studied. We aimed to identify risk factors and examine the impact of HbA on the occurrence of macrosomia in newborns of T1DM women from a cohort with good glycemic control.

The number of pregnancies complicated by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is growing; however, their clinical characteristics remain incomplete. We aimed to assess clinical characteristics, glycemic control, and selected pregnancy outcomes in pregestational T2DM from Poland and to compare them with those of T1DM. We analyzed 415 consecutive singleton pregnancies; among them, there were 70 women with T2DM and 345 with T1DM.

Background: Two regimens are used to achieve excellent glycemic control during pregnancy in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM): continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) and multiple daily injections (MDI). We assessed their efficacy and safety and the effect of pregnancy planning.

Methods: We examined 269 pregnant T1DM women: 157 treated with MDI (MDI group), 42 with CSII (CSII group), and 70 who switched from MDI to CSII in the first trimester (MDI/CSII group).
