We have performed this study with the purpose of determining relationships between various types maternal diabetes, glycemic control and prevalence cardiovascular complications in neonates comparing these findings to infants non-diabetic mothers. A retrospective case-control was years 2019-2022 on two groups newborns at … hospital, IRAQ. Sixty-one mothers were included study. The case group con...

Infants of diabetic mothers are significantly at higher risk for major congenital malformations, with cardiovascular anomalies that is the most frequent. In this study, we presented a rare case of dextrocardia and situs inversus totalis (mirror-image dextrocardia) with multiple congenital heart anomalies who was born from a diabetic mother.

Objective: To compare the prevalence at live birth and the spectrum of cardiovascular malformations in infants born to diabetic mothers with pre-existing diabetes with that in infants of non-diabetic mothers. Design: Prospective study of all live births in the resident population of one health region, with recording of details of the outcome of all pregnancies of women with pre-existing diabete...

INTRODUCTION Adipose tissue can release hormones into the blood stream in response to specific extracellular stimuli or changes in metabolic status. Resistin, an adipose-secreted factor, is primarily involved in the modulation of insulin sensitivity and adipocyte differentiation. Adiponectin, an adipocyte-specific hormone with insulin sensitizing, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic effects,...

Martin, F. I. R., Dahlenburg, G. W., Russell, J., and Jeffery, P. (1975). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 50, 472. Neonatal hypoglycaemia in infants of insulin-dependent diabetic mothers. Neonatal hypoglycaemia (blood glucose <20 mg/100 ml) occurred in the first 6 hours of life in 25 of 34 infants born to diabetic mothers receiving insulin. Despite severe hypoglycaemia (blood glucose <10 mg/1...
