Pharmacotherapy for gestational diabetes
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2018Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) represents impaired carbohydrate metabolism during pregnancy and is characterized by progressive insulin resistance and compensatory hyperinsulinaemia. If inadequately treated, it may lead to fetal macrosomia and other adverse outcomes.In this review, the authors summarize the current evidence from studies on the use

Recognition of gestational diabetes
Zentralblatt für Gynäkologie, 2003In Germany, the diagnosis of gestational diabetes is recognized in only 10% of the patients with gestational diabetes. Therefore 36,000 pregnant patients per year are undiagnosed. The reason is an insufficient screening system which plans only the determination of the glucosuria at each prenatal visit.

Obesity and gestational diabetes
Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2010The prevalence of both obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is increasing worldwide. GDM affects about 7% of all pregnancies and is defined as any degree of impaired glucose tolerance during gestation. The presence of obesity has a significant impact on both maternal and fetal complications associated with GDM.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1992
Although gestational diabetes may have serious consequences for both mother and fetus, it is usually symptomless. The diagnosis can be missed unless all pregnant women are screened to determine those who need a full oral glucose tolerance test. When gestational diabetes is diagnosed, it is essential to (1) achieve euglycemia with diet and, if needed ...

Recurrence of gestational diabetes
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1977The recurrence rate of gestational diabetes in 58 patients who had had the foregoing pregnancy complicated by diabetes was estimated to be 30% if our former criteria for abnormal glucose tolerance were strictly applied and 25% if our new, more stringent criteria were used.

Testing for gestational diabetes
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2003In 1996, the American Diabetes Association reported that 12% of total health care expenditure in the United States was spent on diabetes and its complications. Screening for and treating gestational diabetes results in improved perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Management of Gestational Diabetes
Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991The treatment of gestational diabetes is based on maintaining near-normal maternal glucose levels. To accomplish this goal, dietary counseling is used. circulating glucose is measured regularly, and exogenous insulin is sometimes necessary. Early delivery is not routine.

JAMA, 2001
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a temporary form of diabetes that occurs during pregnancy. Diabetes is a condition where the body cannot easily move glucose from the blood into the cells (i.e. muscle, liver, brain) to use as energy, because of a lack of effective insulin. This means the glucose level in the blood rises.

Therapy of gestational diabetes
Acta Endocrinologica, 1986Abstract. Even minor abnormalities of maternal carbohydrate metabolism may influence foetal development. This study aimed at examining the relations between impaired glucose tolerance and blood glucose behavior under a standardized diet in late pregnancy and at looking for the obstetrical and neonatal outcome after normalization of blood glucose ...
