Background: Ferritin, a key indicator of body iron levels, has been reported to associate with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and the onset of Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, limited research explores the association between mid-pregnancy ferritin levels and the risk of postpartum abnormal glucose metabolism (AGM) in patients with GDM.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted in 1514 women with GDM recruited from January 2016 to January 2021, and 916 women were included.
Aim: We investigated the relationship between the complexity of the glucose time series index (CGI) during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 388 singleton pregnant women with GDM underwent continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) at a median of 26.86 gestational weeks.
Context: Large-for-gestational-age (LGA), one of the most common complications of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), has become a global concern. The predictive performance of common continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics for LGA is limited.
Objective: We aimed to develop and validate an artificial intelligence (AI) based model to determine the probability of women with GDM giving birth to LGA infants during pregnancy using CGM measurements together with demographic data and metabolic indicators.
Objective: This study evaluated the effect of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) versus self-monitored blood glucose (SMGB) in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) <6%.
Methods: From January 2019 to February 2021, 154 GDM patients with HbA1c<6% at 24-28 gestational weeks were recruited and assigned randomly to either SMBG only or CGM in addition to SMBG, with 77 participants in each group. CGM was used in combination with fingertip blood glucose monitoring every four weeks until antepartum in the CGM group, while in the SMBG group, fingertip blood glucose monitoring was applied.

Objective: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a serious threat to maternal and child health. However, there isn't a standard predictive model for the disorder in early pregnancy. This study is to investigate the association of blood indexes with GDM and establishes a practical predictive model in early pregnancy for GDM.

Unlabelled: Backgroud: The present study aimed to investigate the association between immune cells and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and identify a reasonable predictor of insulin resistance in women with GDM.
Objective: The clinical and biochemical characteristics of 124 women with GDM and 168 healthy pregnant women were compared.
Methods: The percentage of immune cells in the blood of the subjects was analyzed by flow cytometry.
