Introduction: Previous gestational diabetes (pGD) is associated with a high risk of postpartum dyslipidemia (pD). Our study was aimed at investigating the prevalence of pD and estimating the risk for pD based on metabolic pregnancy parameters in normoglycemic women with pGD.
Methods: 147 women with pGD and normoglycemia after delivery were divided into groups: A (n = 63) with pD and B (n = 84) with normal lipids, defined by the National Cholesterol Education Program's Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults (Adult Treatment Panel III) Final Report (NCEP ATP III).
Introduction: Women with previous gestational diabetes (pGD) are at higher risk of prediabetes (PD) after delivery. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of and predictors for PD among women with pGD.
Methods: The study included 186 women with pGD treated by lifestyle modification.
