Real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in hospital holds promise; however, further evidence is required on its use to guide adjustment of variable rate intravenous insulin infusion (VRIII). We retrospectively analyzed data from 20 women with type 1 diabetes during the peripartum period who were commenced on VRIII. Data were analyzed for CGM accuracy (Dexcom G6) using point-of-care glucose-CGM matched pairs. The study was entirely observational, with no deviation from standard clinical care. Twenty women were included; median age 30 (26-35) years with first glycated hemoglobin in pregnancy of 57 (49-60) mmol/mol. Overall median absolute relative difference was 6.1 (1.6-17.3)%. The total simulated CGM-adjusted VRIII was 2.5 U per hour, compared with 2.4 U per hour with capillary blood glucose-adjusted VRIII. In this retrospective analysis of CGM adjustment of maternal VRIII, we demonstrate early feasibility and considerable accuracy. Further prospective studies are required to confirm the safety and potential efficacy of CGM-based insulin titration.

Several parents globally face stillbirth, which takes a toll on their mental health and well-being. We would like to discuss the differences between grief and mental health and ways care must be tailored toward the specific needs of the bereaved. Recent research shows that there is a sense of personal responsibility that accompanies stillbirth and pregnancy loss.

Introduction: Small-for-gestational age (SGA) newborns are at increased risk of adverse neonatal outcomes and the risk is related to the etiology of growth restriction: highest in placental insufficiency, lowest in constitutional SGA. The aim of this study was to investigate if placental growth factor (PlGF), soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1) or sFlt-1/PlGF ratio are efficient in prediction of adverse neonatal outcomes in SGA newborns delivered ≥34 weeks of gestation.
Methods: A prospective observational multicenter cohort study was performed.
