Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of serum free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and fT3/fT4 ratio on the gestational diabetes.

Methods: This multicenter study was conducted by analyzing retrospectively 495 pregnant women who admitted to the Tepecik training and Research Hospital, and Kocaeli Derince training and Research Hospital between January 2017 and December 2019. Seventy-eight pregnant women diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) and 82 pregnant women without GDM diagnosis were included in the study. The relationship between thyroid markers (TSH, fT3, fT4 and fT3/fT4) and gestational diabetes was determined using logistic regression analysis.

Results: Advanced age, low fT4 and high TSH levels were higher in GDM group,  < .05. Results of the logistic regression analysis revealed that the gestational week (OR 20.291, 95% CI 3.132-131-449,  = .002], fasting plasma glucose (OR 48,551, 95% CI 9.223-255.582,  < .001), HbA1c (OR 13,671, 95%CI 2.977-62.781,  =.001) and fT3/fT4 (OR 29.934, 95% CI 3.558-251836,  = .002) were the risk factors of GDM.

Discussion: Advanced gestational week, fasting blood glucose, HbA1c and fT3/fT4 ratio are among the risk factors for the development of the gestational diabetes.

Aims: Studies evaluating the relationship between adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs), namely hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), with the estimated risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains limited and could inform patient-centred decision-making in the postpartum period. We examined whether HDP or GDM were associated with a higher 10- and 30-year predicted risk of ASCVD measured 10-14 years after delivery.

Methods: A secondary analysis from the international prospective Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome Follow-up Study (2013-2016) cohort.

Background: This study examines the influence of prematurity and diabetes (DM) in pregnancy on metabolite patterns at birth, and associations with adiposity development in a prospective cohort.

Methods: Term and preterm (30-36 weeks gestational age [GA]) infants were enrolled and body composition assessments completed through discharge. Targeted metabolomics was used to assess metabolites in cord or infant blood in the first 2 days.
