Association of MTHFD1 G1958A Polymorphism with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus.

Background The MTHFD1 G1958A polymorphism is a common variation in the gene encoding methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 1 (MTHFD1), an enzyme crucial for folate metabolism. This study investigated the association between the MTHFD1 G1958A polymorphism, which is involved in folate metabolism, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk. Methods A case-control study was conducted and 304 pregnant women (152 with gestational diabetes as cases and 152 healthy pregnant as controls) participated in the study.

Association of TNFSF11 rs2200287 and TNFSF11 rs2148072 gene polymorphisms in preeclampsia.

Background: Various cytokines released by white blood cells like lymphocytes are linked to the immune system during pregnancy. The polymorphism of the TNFSF11 (rs2200287 and rs2148072) gene is related to the preeclampsia of pregnancy.

Materials And Methods: This study was a prospective study involving 304 pregnant women with preeclampsia (n = 152) and controls (non-preeclamptic pregnant women) (n = 152).
