One-year postpartum weight retention and glucose intolerance in women with prediabetes after gestational diabetes.

Aims: To determine risk factors for 1-year postpartum weight retention (PPWR) and glucose intolerance (prediabetes + diabetes) in women with a previous history of gestational diabetes (GDM) and prediabetes in early postpartum.

Methods: In this exploratory analysis of the MELINDA randomized controlled trial, we report data of 167 women with prediabetes at the 6-16 weeks (early) postpartum oral glucose tolerance test after a recent history of GDM.

Results: Of all participants, 45% (75) had PPWR >0 kg at 1-year postpartum.

Impact of breastfeeding on risk of glucose intolerance in early postpartum after gestational diabetes.

Aims: To determine the impact of breastfeeding on the risk of postpartum glucose intolerance in women with gestational diabetes.

Methods: Sub-analysis of two multi-centric prospective cohort studies (BEDIP-N and MELINDA) in 1008 women with gestational diabetes. Data were collected during pregnancy and at a mean of 12 weeks postpartum.

Vitamin D Metabolites Before and After Kidney Transplantation in Patients Who Are Anephric.

Rationale & Objective: Kidneys are vital for vitamin D metabolism, and disruptions in both production and catabolism occur in chronic kidney disease. Although vitamin D activation occurs in numerous tissues, the kidneys are the most relevant source of circulating active vitamin D. This study investigates extrarenal vitamin D activation and the impact of kidney transplantation on vitamin D metabolism in patients who are anephric.

Effectiveness of a blended mobile-based lifestyle intervention in women with glucose intolerance after a recent history of gestational diabetes (MELINDA): a 1-year, prospective, multicentre, randomised controlled trial.

Background: Women with glucose intolerance after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at high risk to develop type 2 diabetes. Traditional lifestyle interventions in early postpartum have limited impact. We investigated the efficacy of a blended mobile-based lifestyle intervention in women with glucose intolerance after a recent history of GDM.

Aging-accumulated methylmalonic acid serum levels at breast cancer diagnosis are not associated with distant metastases.

Purpose: Recent evidence suggests that age-accumulated methylmalonic acid (MMA) promotes breast cancer progression in mice. This study aims to investigate the association between baseline serum MMA concentrations in patients with breast cancer and the development of subsequent distant metastases.

Methods: We included 32 patients with early Luminal B-like breast cancer (LumB, median age 62.
