Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease affecting an increasing number of people. Although diabetes has negative health outcomes for diagnosed individuals, a population at particular risk are pregnant women, as diabetes impacts not only a pregnant woman's health but that of her child. In this review, we cover the current knowledge and unanswered questions on diabetes affecting an expectant mother, focusing on maternal and fetal outcomes.

Insulin Resistance in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Its Association With Anthropometric Fetal Indices. Clin Med Insights Endocrinol Diabetes 2022; 15:11795514221098403. [PMID: 35601878 PMCID: PMC9121510 DOI: 10.1177/11795514221098403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: In pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), insulin
resistance (IR) increases the risk of developing manifest type 2 diabetes
mellitus and is associated with complications in both mother and fetus. Objectives: This research aimed to evaluate the associations between IR evaluated by 3
indices (namely updated homeostasis model assessment model (HOMA2), QUICKI,
and McAuley’s index) and the diabetes risk factors and the fetal growth
indices in Vietnamese women with GDM. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 370 women with GDM and
40 healthy pregnant women from January 2015 to May 2019. IR was calculated
by HOMA2 (HOMA2-IR), QUICKI, and McAuley’s index. Fetal anthropometric
measurements were assessed via ultrasound which was performed and
interpreted by ultrasound experts. Results: In the simple regression analysis, McAuley’s index illustrated had
statistically significant correlations to the highest number of risk factors
of diabetes mellitus compared with HOMA2-IR and QUICKI indices. Moreover,
McAuley’s index correlated statistically significantly to the highest number
of fetal ultrasound measurements factors such as including biparietal
diameter (BPD) (r = −0.271, P < .001),
head circumference (HC) (r = −0.225,
P < .001), abdominal circumference (AC)
(r = −0.214, P < .001), femur
length (FL) (r = −0.231, P < .001),
estimated fetal weight (EFW) (r = −0.239,
P < .001) and fetal estimated age
(r = −0.299, P < .001). In the
multivariable analysis, the McAuley’s index contributed the greatest to AC
(Standardized B of −0.656, P < .001). Conclusion: The McAuley’s index was significantly associated with a higher number of more
risk factors for diabetes mellitus as well as fetal ultrasound sonography
findings measurements than compared with HOMA2-IR and QUICKI indices.
