Clinical and ultrasound features of placental maturation in pre-gestational diabetic pregnancy.
BACKGROUND Pre-gestational diabetes (PGDM) is a significant cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Delayed villous maturation (DVM) is a placental diagnosis with increased risk of perinatal mortality. AIMS This study aimed to prospectively look at the incidence of DVM in a PGDM population compared to non-diabetic controls. Additionally, we analysed antenatal ultrasound and clinical marker...
متن کاملComparative Assessment of Ultrasound Placental Findings in Small for Gestational Age and Normal-Weight Fetuses
Background Small for gestational age (SGA) refers to newborns whose birth weight is less than the 10th percentile for gestational age. The aim of this study was to provide a comparative assessment of ultrasound placental findings in SGA and normal-weight fetuses in singleton pregnant women. Materials and Methods In...
متن کاملPlacental Nutrient Transport in Gestational Diabetic Pregnancies
Maternal obesity during pregnancy is rising and is associated with increased risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), defined as glucose intolerance first diagnosed in pregnancy (1). Fetal growth is determined by the maternal nutrient supply and placental nutrient transfer capacity. GDM-complicated pregnancies are more likely to be complicated by fetal overgrowth or excess adipos...
متن کاملPlacental lactogen levels in diabetic pregnancy.
A prospective study has been carried out of placental lactogen levels in pregnancy complicated by diabetes mellitus. The levels were higher than those in normal pregnant subjects; the higher levels were related to increased placental and fetal weight but more closely to the former; and lower levels were found when there was clinical evidence of placental dysfunction. Those patients requiring th...
متن کاملPlacental infiltration of inflammatory markers in gestational diabetic women.
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is pathology of glucose intolerance during pregnancy. It is influenced by maternal hyperglycemia and insulinemia through placental circulation. The study was undertaken to investigate the implication of pro-inflammatory factors in the placenta of GDM women. Thirty GDM women have delivered macrosomic babies, and 30 healthy age-matched pregnant women have deliv...
