AI Article Synopsis
- * Conducted on 65 women with pregestational diabetes and 130 low-risk controls, results showed that CPR and CPUR values were significantly lower in the diabetes group, with higher rates of NICU admissions.
- * The findings suggest that lower CPUR values correlate with adverse outcomes, indicating that CPUR could become a standard tool in obstetric care for monitoring pregnancies in women with diabetes.*
Article Abstract
Purpose: To examine the cerebro-placental-uterine ratio (CPUR) in pregnant women with pregestational diabetes and determine its role in predicting adverse prenatal outcomes.
Methods: This prospective, cohort study conducted at a tertiary hospital included 65 patients with pregestational diabetes (25 with type1 diabetes, 40 with type2 diabetes) and 130 low-risk patients in the control group. The cerebroplacental (CPR) ratio and the CPUR were calculated. Composite adverse perinatal outcome (CAPO) is defined as the presence of any of the following: (1) Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission, (2) Apgar at 5 min <7, and (3) umbilical cord arterial pH <7.10. The relationship of CPR and CPUR with CAPO was investigated.
Results: CPR and CPUR were significantly lower in the pregestational diabetes group than in the control group. The NICU admission was higher in the case group. In receiver operating characteristic analyses, the optimal cut-off value of CPUR was 1.46 (AUC = 0.72, p = 0.003, 80% sensitivity, and 69% specificity) to predict CAPO and the optimal cut-off value of CPUR was 1.50 for NICU admission (AUC = 0.70, p = 0.013, 77% sensitivity, and 66% specificity).
Conclusion: Low CPUR values were found to be associated with adverse perinatal outcomes in women with pregestational diabetes. With the increasing number of studies, CPUR is expected to be utilized more widely in routine obstetric practice.

Purpose: We aimed to determine fetal liver perfusion in PGDM and GDM pregnancies and to assess the relation of ductus venosus (DV) shunt fraction with adverse pregnancy outcomes.
Methods: We conducted a prospective longitudinal observational study including 188 pregnant women: group I-patients with pregestational DM (PGDM, n = 86), group II-patients with gestational DM (GDM, n = 44), group III-control (n = 58). The patients included in the study underwent ultrasound examination at 30-40 weeks of pregnancy.

Proper nutrition is essential during pregnancy to ensure an adequate supply of nutrients to the foetus and adequate maternal weight gain. In pregnancy complicated by diabetes (both gestational and pre-gestational), diet in terms of both the intake and quality of carbohydrates is an essential factor in glycaemic control. Maternal BMI at conception defines the correct weight increase during gestation in order to reduce maternal-foetal complications related to hypo- or hyper-nutrition.

Background Maternal diabetes mellitus (DM) is a known risk factor for congenital heart diseases (CHDs), which are of significant concern to infants born to diabetic mothers. Compared to newborns born to non-diabetic mothers, infants born to diabetic mothers had a higher overall risk of developing congenital malformations. This association has a complex pathophysiology that includes genetic predispositions, metabolic abnormalities, and environmental factors during key stages of fetal development.

Introduction: Whether in utero exposure to pregestational (type 2 [T2D] and type 1 diabetes [T1D]) and gestational diabetes (GDM) are contributing factors in the rise of neurodevelopmental alterations such as autism is yet unclear. Therefore, we summarized the evidence from studies that assessed such association.
Methods: A systematic review with meta-analyses was performed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines; eligible studies were identified in PubMed, Web of Science, and EBSCO up to April 3rd, 2023.
