Gestational diabetes mellitus treatment reduces obesity-induced adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes: the St. Carlos gestational study.

Background: Obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increase the morbidity of the mother and newborn, which could increase further should they coexist. We aimed to determine the risk of adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes associated with excess weight (EW), and within this group identify potential differences between those with and without GDM.

Methods: We carried out a post-hoc analysis of the St.

The impact of switching to the one-step method for GDM diagnosis on the rates of postpartum screening attendance and glucose disorder in women with prior GDM. The San Carlos Gestational Study.

Aims: To compare rates of FPG-HbA1C-based postpartum-glucose disorder (PGD) of women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) by Carpenter-Coustan criteria (CCc) versus International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups criteria (IADPSGc).

Methods: 1620 women with GDM were divided into CCc group (2007-March 2012, n=915), and IADPSGc group (April 2012-2013, n=705). Pregravid (PG) body weight (BW) and body mass index (BMI) and postdelivery (PD) BW, BMI, waist circumference (WC), HOMA-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), HbA1c, glucose and lipid profile were analysed.
