Abstract
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of glycated CD59 (gCD59) in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods A total of 707 pregnant women who underwent the first visit in the obstetric outpatient clinic of the Affliated Suqian Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2022 to July 2023 were included, and were grouped according to the International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups(IADPSG) diagnostic criteria, and finally 113 cases in the GDM group and 559 cases in the normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group were included, and the concentration of gCD59 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The baseline data characteristics of the two groups were compared, the risk factors for GDM were explored by multivariate binary logistic analysis, and the diagnostic value of gCD59 in predicting GDM was explored by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results The level of gCD59 in the GDM group was significantly higher than that in the NGT group (1.49 SPU vs 0.87 SPU). Multivariate regression analysis showed that gCD59, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) were independent risk factors for GDM.The area under the curve (AUC) of gCD59 for the diagnosis of GDM was 0.681 (95% CI: 0.583-0.717), with a sensitivity of 71.7% and a specificity of 58.3%. In combination with fasting glucose, gCD59 effectively diagnosed GDM with higher AUC of 0.871 (95% CI: 0.708-1.000). Conclusion gCD59 is an independent risk factor for GDM and a good biomarker for the diagnosis of GDM.

Abstract
The complement cascade comprises soluble and cell surface proteins and is an important arm of the innate immune system. Once activated, the complement system rapidly generates large quantities of protein fragments that are potent mediators of inflammatory, vasoactive and metabolic responses. Although complement is crucial to host defence and homeostasis, its inappropriate or uncontrolled activation can also drive tissue injury. For example, the complement system has been known for more than 50 years to be activated by glomerular immune complexes and to contribute to autoimmune kidney disease. Notably, the latest research shows that complement is also activated in kidney diseases that are not traditionally thought of as immune-mediated, including haemolytic-uraemic syndrome, diabetic kidney disease and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Several complement-targeted drugs have been approved for the treatment of kidney disease, and additional anti-complement agents are being investigated in clinical trials. These drugs are categorically different from other immunosuppressive agents and target pathological processes that are not effectively inhibited by other classes of immunosuppressants. The development of these new drugs might therefore have considerable benefits in the treatment of kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous laboratory tests are used in the diagnosis and management of diabetes mellitus. The quality of the scientific evidence supporting the use of these assays varies substantially. APPROACH An expert committee compiled evidence-based recommendations for laboratory analysis in screening, diagnosis, or monitoring of diabetes. The overall quality of the evidence and the strength of the recommendations were evaluated. The draft consensus recommendations were evaluated by invited reviewers and presented for public comment. Suggestions were incorporated as deemed appropriate by the authors (see Acknowledgments). The guidelines were reviewed by the Evidence Based Laboratory Medicine Committee and the Board of Directors of the American Association for Clinical Chemistry and by the Professional Practice Committee of the American Diabetes Association. CONTENT Diabetes can be diagnosed by demonstrating increased concentrations of glucose in venous plasma or increased hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the blood. Glycemic control is monitored by the people with diabetes measuring their own blood glucose with meters and/or with continuous interstitial glucose monitoring (CGM) devices and also by laboratory analysis of HbA1c. The potential roles of noninvasive glucose monitoring, genetic testing, and measurement of ketones, autoantibodies, urine albumin, insulin, proinsulin, and C-peptide are addressed. SUMMARY The guidelines provide specific recommendations based on published data or derived from expert consensus. Several analytes are found to have minimal clinical value at the present time, and measurement of them is not recommended.

The utility of plasma glycated CD59 in predicting postpartum glucose intolerance: A prospective study of women diagnosed with GDM during a period of universal GDM screening. Diabet Med 2023; 40:e15121. [PMID: 37078256 DOI: 10.1111/dme.15121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Gestational diabetes (GDM) is associated with the development of postpartum (PP) glucose intolerance. Plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is an emerging biomarker for the detection of hyperglycaemia. The aim of this study was to assess the ability of PP pGCD59 to predict the development of PP GI as defined by the 2 h 75 g OGTT using the ADA criteria, in a cohort of women diagnosed with prior GDM in the index pregnancy using the 2 h 75 g OGTT at 24-28 weeks of gestation according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2013 criteria. METHODS Of the 2017 pregnant women recruited prospectively 140 women with gestational diabetes had samples for pGCD59 taken PP at the time of the OGTT. The ability of pGCD59 to predict the results of the PP OGTT was assessed using nonparametric receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. RESULTS Women with PP glucose intolerance had significantly higher PP pGCD59 levels compared to women with normal glucose tolerance PP (3.8 vs. 2.7 SPU). PP pGCD59 identified women who developed glucose intolerance PP with an AUC of 0.80 (95% CI: 0.70-0.91). A PP pGCD59 cut-off value of 1.9 SPU generated a sensitivity of 100% (95% CI: 83.9-100), specificity of 16.9% (95% CI: 9.8-26.3), positive predictive value of 22.1% (95% CI: 21.0-22.6), and negative predictive value of 100% (95% CI: 87.4-100). PP fasting plasma glucose generated an AUC of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.89-0.99) for the identification of PP glucose intolerance. CONCLUSION Our study found that PP pGCD9 may be a promising biomarker to identify women not requiring PP glucose intolerance screening using the traditional OGTT. While the diagnostic accuracy of pGCD59 is good, fasting plasma glucose remains a better test for the identification of PP glucose intolerance.

Abstract
AIM Even though most pregnancies are uneventful, occasionally complications do occur. Gestational diabetes is linked to an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Early identification of women at risk of experiencing adverse outcomes, ideally through a single blood test, would facilitate early intervention. Plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is an emerging biomarker which has shown promise in identifying hyperglycaemia during pregnancy and has been associated with the risk of delivering an LGA infant. The aim of this study was to explore the ability of the first- and second-trimester pGCD59 to predict adverse pregnancy outcomes. METHODS This was a prospective study of 378 pregnant women. Samples for pGCD59 were taken at the first antenatal visit and at the time of the 2 h 75 g OGTT (24-28 weeks of gestation). Adjusted receiver operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate the ability of pGCD59 to predict maternal and neonatal outcomes. RESULTS First-trimester pGCD59 levels were higher in women with gestational diabetes who delivered a macrosomic infant (4.2 ± 0.7 vs. 3.5 ± 1.0 SPU, p < 0.01) or an LGA infant (4.3 ± 0.3 vs. 3.6 ± 1.0 SPU, p = 0.01) compared to women with GDM that did not experience these outcomes. Second-trimester pGCD59 levels were higher in women that developed polyhydramnios (2.9 ± 0.4 vs. 2.5 ± 1.1 SPU, p = 0.03). First- and second-trimester pGCD59 predicted pregnancy-induced hypertension with good accuracy (AUC:0.85, 95%CI:0.78-0.91; AUC: 0.80, 95%CI: 0.73-0.88, respectively) and neonatal hypoglycaemia with fair to good accuracy (AUC:0.77, 95%CI: 0.54-0.99, AUC:0.81, 95%CI:0.62-0.99). CONCLUSIONS This study has shown that pGCD59 has the potential to predict adverse pregnancy outcomes. Prospective studies with a larger number of cases are necessary to fully explore and validate the potential of this emerging biomarker in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
The Belgian Diabetes in Pregnancy follow-up study (BEDIP-FUS) aims to investigate the impact of body mass index (BMI), adiposity and different degrees of glucose intolerance on the metabolic profile and future risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in women and offspring five years after delivery in the BEDIP study. The BEDIP study was a prospective cohort study to evaluate different screening strategies for gestational diabetes (GDM) based on the 2013 WHO criteria. The aim of the BEDIP-FUS is to recruit 375 women-offspring pairs, stratified according to three different subgroups based on the antenatal result of the glucose challenge test (GCT) and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during the BEDIP pregnancy. The follow-up visit consists of a 75 g OGTT, anthropometric measurements and questionnaires for the mothers, and a fasting blood sample with anthropometric measurements for the child. Primary outcome for the mother is glucose intolerance defined by the American Diabetes Association criteria and for the offspring the BMI z-score. Recruitment began in January 2021. The BEDIP-FUS study will help to better individualize follow-up in women with different degrees of hyperglycemia in pregnancy and their offspring.

Abstract
CONTEXT Neonatal hypoglycaemia (NH) is the most common metabolic problem in infants born of mothers with gestational diabetes. Plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is an emerging biomarker that has shown potential in identifying women at risk of developing gestational diabetes. The aim of this study was to assess the association between early maternal levels of pGCD59 and NH. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess the association between early pregnancy maternal levels of plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) and neonatal hypoglycemia (NH). METHODS This is an observational study of pregnant women with a prepregnancy body mass index (BMI) greater than or equal to 29 screened for eligibility to participate in the Vitamin D and Lifestyle Intervention for Gestational Diabetes (DALI) trial. This analysis included 399 pregnancies. Levels of pGCD59 were measured in fasting maternal samples taken at the time of a 75-g, 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test performed in early pregnancy (< 20 weeks). NH, the study outcome, was defined as a heel-prick capillary glucose level of less than 2.6 mmol/L within 48 hours of delivery. RESULTS We identified 30 infants with NH. Maternal levels of pGCD59 in early pregnancy were positively associated with the prevalence of NH (one-way analysis of variance, P < .001). The odds of NH were higher in infants from mothers in tertile 3 of pGCD59 levels compared to those from mothers in tertile 1 (odds ratio [OR]: 2.41; 95% CI, 1.03-5.63). However, this was attenuated when adjusted for maternal BMI (OR: 2.28; 95% CI, 0.96-5.43). The cross-validated area under the curve (AUC) was 0.64 (95% CI, 0.54-0.74), and adjusted for maternal BMI, age, and ethnicity, the AUC was 0.70 (95% CI, 0.56-0.78). CONCLUSION Although pGCD59 levels in early pregnancy in women with BMI greater than or equal to 29 are associated with NH, our results indicate that this biomarker by itself is only a fair predictor of NH.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the ability of first trimester plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) to predict gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) at 24-28 weeks of gestation. METHODS Prospectively, in 378 pregnant women, GDM was diagnosed using the one step 2 h 75 g oral glucose tolerance test adjudicated by the World Health Organisation (WHO) 2013 criteria. The ability of pGCD59 to predict GDM was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves adjusted for maternal age, body mass index (BMI), maternal ethnicity, parity, previous GDM, family history of diabetes mellitus and week of gestation at time of pGCD59 sampling. RESULTS pGCD59 generated an adjusted area under the curve (AUC) of (a) 0.63 (95 %CI:0.56-0.70, p < 0.001) for predicting GDM, and (b) 0.71 (95 %CI:0.62-0.79, p < 0.001 for GDM diagnosed with a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥ 5.1 mmol/L. Sensitivity analysis of BMI subgroups showed that pGCD59 generated the highest AUC in the 35 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 40 kg/m2 (AUC:0.85, 95 %CI:0.70-0.98) and BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2 (AUC:0.88, 95 %CI:0.63-0.99) categories. CONCLUSIONS Early in pregnancy, pGCD59 may be a good predictor of GDM in women with a high BMI and a fair predictor of GDM diagnosed by an elevated FPG independent of BMI.

The Diagnostic Accuracy of Second Trimester Plasma Glycated CD59 (pGCD59) to Identify Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Based on the 75 g OGTT Using the WHO Criteria: A Prospective Study of Non-Diabetic Pregnant Women in Ireland. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11133895. [PMID: 35807179 PMCID: PMC9267743 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11133895] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of second trimester plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59), a novel biomarker, to predict the results of the 2 h 75 g oral glucose tolerance test at 24−28 weeks of gestation, employing the 2013 World Health Organisation criteria. This was a prospective study of 378 pregnant women. The ability of pGCD59 to predict gestational diabetes (GDM) was assessed using adjusted ROC curves for maternal age, BMI, maternal ethnicity, parity, previous GDM, and family history of diabetes. The pGCD59 levels were significantly higher in women with GDM compared to women with normal glucose tolerance (p = 0.003). The pGCD59 generated an adjusted AUC for identifying GDM cases of 0.65 (95%CI: 0.58−0.71, p < 0.001). The pGCD59 predicted GDM status diagnosed by a fasting glucose value of 5.1 mmol/L with an adjusted AUC of 0.74 (95%CI: 0.65−0.81, p < 0.001). Analysis of BMI subgroups determined that pGCD59 generated the highest AUC in the 35 kg/m2 ≤ BMI < 40 kg/m2 (AUC: 0.84 95%CI: 0.69−0.98) and BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2 (AUC: 0.96 95%CI: 0.86−0.99) categories. This study found that second trimester pGCD59 is a fair predictor of GDM status diagnosed by elevated fasting glucose independent of BMI and an excellent predictor of GDM in subjects with a very high BMI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The significant maternal and neonatal outcomes of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) make it a major public health concern. Mothers with GDM are at greater risk of pregnancy complications and their offspring are at higher risk of diabetes and obesity. Currently, GDM is diagnosed with glucose load methods which are time-consuming and inconvenient to administer more than once during pregnancy; for this reason, there is a recognised need for a more accurate and simpler test for GDM. Previous studies indicate that plasma-glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is a novel biomarker for GDM. We present here the protocol of a prospective cohort study designed to (1) determine the accuracy of pGCD59 as an early, first trimester predictor of GDM and gestational impaired glucose tolerance and (2) assess the associations between pGCD59 levels and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. METHODS AND ANALYSIS We will obtain discarded plasma samples from pregnant women at two time points: first prenatal visit (usually <14 weeks gestation) and gestational weeks 24-28. A study-specific medical record abstraction tool will be used to obtain relevant maternal and neonatal clinical data from the EPIC clinical database. The prevalence of GDM will be determined using standard of care glucose load test results. We will determine the sensitivity and specificity of pGCD59 to predict the diagnosis of GDM and gestational impaired glucose tolerance, as well as the associations between levels of pGCD59 and the prevalence of maternal and neonatal outcomes. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has been approved by the Mass General Brigham Institutional Review Board (protocol 2011P002254). The results of this study will be presented at international meetings and disseminated in peer-reviewed journals.

Abstract
The biomarker strategy, based on multiple specific glycation sites in plasma proteins, could essentially increase the efficiency of glycemic control and disease prediction. Besides glycated albumin being a potential biomarker of early states of diabetes mellitus and control of short-term, it has been shown that the glycation of fibrinogen may also impact the formation of the fibrin network, while quantification of glycation of the CD59 protein allows for early detection of glucose intolerance in pregnant women. A different level of glycation of individual lysine residues in proteins has a crucial influence on the stages of the disease. The quantification of new biomarkers of different stages of diabetes requires appropriate isotope-labeled analogs that may improve biomarker search by providing more accurate quantitative data and by more robust detection/quantitation of low-abundance biomarkers. In the presented work, we proposed a fast and simple protocol for the synthesis of isotopically labeled and bi-labeled deoxyfructosylated peptide based on a combination of microwave-assisted synthesis and boronic affinity chromatography using functionalized resin (PhB-Lys(PhB)-ChemMatrix® Rink resin) developed by us. Our method is focused on the synthesis of glycated peptides identified in glycated albumin (GA) after enzymatic hydrolysis catalyzed by trypsin after arginine residues. Thereby, the standard peptides comprised [13C6]-deoxyfructose attached to lysine residue side chain, a dabcyl moiety for determination of standard amounts, and a cleavable linker. Moreover, we applied bi-labeled deoxyfructosylated peptide to determine the concentration of appropriate analog in a sample of human serum albumin glycated in vitro.

Abstract
AIM To assess whether in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), postpartum plasma glycated CD59 (pGCD59) levels predict conversion to glucose intolerance diagnosed with an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). METHODS Blood levels of pGCD59 were measured in a case-control study of 105 women with GDM who underwent a 75 g OGTT 3 months postpartum. The 35 postpartum glucose intolerant cases were individually matched for age, BMI, ethnic origin, and parity with 70 women with GDM but normal postpartum OGTT (controls). The GDM cohort (105) was also matched with 105 normal glucose tolerant women during pregnancy. pGCD59 was measured by ELISA in standard peptide units (SPU). RESULTS Mean pGCD59 postpartum was significantly higher in cases than in controls (1.5 ± 0.6 SPU vs 1.0 ± 0.6 SPU, P < 0.001). The area under the receiving operating characteristic curve (AUC) in cases vs controls was 0.72 (95% CI: 0.62-0.83) for postpartum pGCD59 and 0.50 (95% CI: 0.36-0.61) for postpartum HbA1c. A 0.5-unit increase in postpartum pGCD59 was associated with an odds ratio (OR) of 3.3 (95% CI: 1.82-6.16, P < 0.001) for glucose intolerance postpartum. A pGCD59 cut-off postpartum of 0.9 SPU had a sensitivity of 85.7% (95% CI: 69.7-95.2%), specificity of 47.8% (95% CI: 35.6-60.2%), positive predictive value of 45.4% (95% CI: 33.1-58.2%), and negative predictive value of 86.8% (95% CI: 71.9-95.6%). pGCD59 in pregnancy was a poor predictor for glucose intolerance postpartum (AUC of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.50-0.72)). CONCLUSION pGCD59 might identify women at low risk for glucose intolerance postpartum and could help to avoid an OGTT.

The diagnostic indicators of gestational diabetes mellitus from second trimester to birth: a systematic review. Clin Diabetes Endocrinol 2021; 7:19. [PMID: 34635186 PMCID: PMC8504031 DOI: 10.1186/s40842-021-00126-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2021] [Accepted: 06/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is glucose intolerance first recognised during pregnancy. Both modalities and thresholds of the GDM diagnostic test, the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), have varied widely over time and among countries. Additionally, OGTT limitations include inconsistency, poor patient tolerability, and questionable diagnostic reliability. Many biological parameters have been reported to be modified by GDM and could potentially be used as diagnostic indicators. This study aimed to 1) systematically explore biomarkers reported in the literature as differentiating GDM from healthy pregnancies 2) screen those indicators assessed against OGTT to propose OGTT alternatives. MAIN BODY A systematic review of GDM diagnostic indicators was performed according to PRISMA guidelines (PROSPERO registration CRD42020145499). Inclusion criteria were full-text, comprehensible English-language articles published January 2009-January 2021, where a biomarker (from blood, ultrasound, amniotic fluid, placenta) was compared between GDM and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) women from the second trimester onward to immediately postpartum. GDM diagnostic method had to be clearly specified, and the number of patients per study higher than 30 in total or 15 per group. Results were synthesised by biomarkers. RESULTS Of 13,133 studies identified in initial screening, 174 studies (135,801 participants) were included. One hundred and twenty-nine studies described blood analytes, one amniotic fluid analytes, 27 ultrasound features, 17 post-natal features. Among the biomarkers evaluated in exploratory studies, Adiponectin, AFABP, Betatrophin, CRP, Cystatin-C, Delta-Neutrophil Index, GGT, TNF-A were those demonstrating statistically and clinically significant differences in substantial cohorts of patients (> 500). Regarding biomarkers assessed versus OGTT (i.e. potential OGTT alternatives) most promising were Leptin > 48.5 ng/ml, Ficolin3/adiponectin ratio ≥ 1.06, Chemerin/FABP > 0.71, and Ultrasound Gestational Diabetes Score > 4. These all demonstrated sensitivity and specificity > 80% in adequate sample sizes (> / = 100). CONCLUSIONS Numerous biomarkers may differentiate GDM from normoglycaemic pregnancy. Given the limitations of the OGTT and the lack of a gold standard for GDM diagnosis, advanced phase studies are needed to triangulate the most promising biomarkers. Further studies are also recommended to assess the sensitivity and specificity of promising biomarkers not yet assessed against OGTT. TRIAL REGISTRATION PROSPERO registration number CRD42020145499.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a frequent medical complication during pregnancy. Screening and diagnostic practices for GDM are inconsistent across the world. This narrative review includes data from 87 observational studies and randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and aims to give an overview of the current evidence on screening strategies and diagnostic criteria for GDM. Screening in early pregnancy remains controversial and studies show conflicting results on the benefit of screening and treatment of GDM in early pregnancy. Implementing the one-step "International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups" (IADPSG) screening strategy at 24-28 weeks often leads to a substantial increase in the prevalence of GDM, without conclusive evidence regarding the benefits on pregnancy outcomes compared to a two-step screening strategy with a glucose challenge test (GCT). In addition, RCTs are needed to investigate the impact of treatment of GDM diagnosed with IADPSG criteria on long-term maternal and childhood outcomes. Selective screening using a risk-factor-based approach could be helpful in simplifying the screening algorithm but carries the risk of missing significant proportions of GDM cases. A two-step screening method with a 50g GCT and subsequently a 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with IADPSG could be an alternative to reduce the need for an OGTT. However, to have an acceptable sensitivity to screen for GDM with the IADPSG criteria, the threshold of the GCT should be lowered from 7.8 to 7.2 mmol/L. A pragmatic approach to screen for GDM can be implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic, using fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HbA1c or even random plasma glucose (RPG) to reduce the number of OGTTs needed. However, usual guidelines and care should be resumed as soon as the COVID pandemic is controlled.

Abstract
We are currently experiencing an enduring global epidemic of obesity and diabetes. It is now understood that chronic low-grade tissue inflammation plays an important role in metabolic disease, brought upon by increased uptake of a so-called Western diet, and a more sedentary lifestyle. Many evolutionarily conserved links exist between metabolism and the immune system, and an imbalance in this system induced by chronic over-nutrition has been termed 'metaflammation'. The complement system is an important and evolutionarily ancient part of innate immunity, but recent work has revealed that complement not only is involved in the recognition of pathogens and induction of inflammation, but also plays important roles in cellular and tissue homeostasis. Complement can therefore contribute both positively and negatively to metabolic control, depending on the nature and anatomical site of its activity. This review will therefore focus on the interactions of complement with mechanisms and tissues relevant for metabolic control, obesity and diabetes.

Abstract
Introduction: Gestational diabetes (GDM), defined as hyperglycemia with onset or initial recognition during pregnancy, has a rising prevalence paralleling the rise in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and obesity. GDM is associated with short-term and long-term consequences for both mother and child. Therefore, it is crucial we efficiently identify all cases and initiate early treatment, reducing fetal exposure to hyperglycemia and reducing GDM-related adverse pregnancy outcomes. For this reason, GDM screening is recommended as part of routine pregnancy care. The current screening method, the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), is a lengthy, cumbersome and inconvenient test with poor reproducibility. Newer biomarkers that do not necessitate a fasting sample are needed for the prompt diagnosis of GDM. The aim of this scoping review is to highlight and describe emerging protein biomarkers that fulfill these requirements for the diagnosis of GDM. Materials and Methods: This scoping review was conducted according to preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines for scoping reviews using Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), the Cumulative Index to Nursing & Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed, Embase and Web of Science with a double screening and extraction process. The search included all articles published in the literature to July 2020. Results: Of the 3519 original database citations identified, 385 were eligible for full-text review. Of these, 332 (86.2%) were included in the scoping review providing a total of 589 biomarkers studied in relation to GDM diagnosis. Given the high number of biomarkers identified, three post hoc criteria were introduced to reduce the items set for discussion: we chose only protein biomarkers with at least five citations in the articles identified by our search and published in the years 2017-2020. When applied, these criteria identified a total of 15 biomarkers, which went forward for review and discussion. Conclusions: This review details protein biomarkers that have been studied to find a suitable test for GDM diagnosis with the potential to replace the OGTT used in current GDM screening protocols. Ongoing research efforts will continue to identify more accurate and practical biomarkers to take GDM screening and diagnosis into the 21st century.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated+ with adverse pregnancy outcomes compared with women with normal glucose tolerance in pregnancy. The WHO recommends screening at 24-28 weeks gestation for GDM. Women who are diagnosed before 24-28 weeks gestation have a longer intervention period which may impact positively on pregnancy outcomes. AIM This study aimed to examine pregnancy outcomes of women with GDM diagnosed <24 weeks gestation compared with those diagnosed at 24-28 weeks in a large Irish cohort. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of 1471 pregnancies in women with GDM diagnosed using IADPSG criteria between September 2012 and April 2016 was conducted. At GDM diagnosis, women were classified as early GDM <24 weeks or standard GDM 24-28 weeks gestation. RESULTS Women with early GDM had a significantly greater risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension (12.4% vs. 5.3%; P < 0.05), post-partum haemorrhage (8.7% vs. 2.4%; P < 0.05) and post-partum glucose abnormalities (32% vs. 15.6%; P < 0.05). Their offspring had a greater risk of pre-maturity (10.9% vs. 6.6%; P < 0.05), stillbirth (1.4% vs. 0.5%; P < 0.05), large for gestational age (19.1% vs. 13.4% P < 0.05) and need neonatal intensive care (30.7% vs. 22.1%; P < 0.05) compared with offspring of women with standard GDM. Rates of C-section and pre-maturity were still higher in the early GDM group when the two groups where compared based on their post-natal OGTT. CONCLUSION Early GDM women and their offspring are at greater risk of an adverse pregnancy outcome compared with those diagnosed at 24-28 weeks. In view of the abnormal post-natal glucose findings, early GDM may reflect a more advanced state in diabetes pathogenesis.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is the commonest medical complication of pregnancy. The association of GDM with immediate pregnancy complications including excess fetal growth and adiposity with subsequent risk of birth trauma and with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy is well recognized. However, the associations with wide ranges of longer-term health outcomes for mother and baby, including the lifetime risks of obesity, pre-diabetes, and diabetes and cardiovascular disease have received less attention and few health systems address these important issues in a systematic way. This article reviews historical and recent data regarding prediction of GDM using demographic, clinical, and biochemical parameters. We evaluate current and potential future diagnostic approaches designed to most effectively identify GDM and extend this analysis into a critical evaluation of lifestyle and nutritional/pharmacologic interventions designed to prevent the development of GDM. The general approach to management of GDM during pregnancy is then discussed and the major final focus of the article revolves around the importance of a GDM diagnosis as a future marker of the risk of non-communicable disease (NCD), in particular pre-diabetes, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, both in mother and offspring.

Abstract
Globally, gestational diabetes (GDM) is increasing at an alarming rate. This increase is linked to the rise in obesity rates among women of reproductive age. GDM poses a major global health problem due to the related micro- and macro-vascular complications of subsequent Type 2 diabetes and the impact on the future health of generations through the long-term impact of GDM on both mothers and their infants. Therefore, correctly identifying subjects as having GDM is of utmost importance. The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) has been the mainstay for diagnosing gestational diabetes for decades. However, this test is deeply flawed. In this review, we explore a history of the OGTT, its reproducibility and the many factors that can impact its results with an emphasis on pregnancy.

BMC Pregnancy Childbirth 2020; 20:412. [PMID: 32682411 PMCID: PMC7368790 DOI: 10.1186/s12884-020-03090-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 07/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalence of Gestational Diabetes (GDM) is rising and with it the number of mothers and children at risk of adverse outcomes. As treatment has been shown to reduce adverse events, it is imperative that we identify all at-risk pregnant women. In Ireland, the national standard of care is selective screening with a 2-hour 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Aiming for universal screening is of utmost importance but this is difficult given the length, the unfeasibility and impracticability of the OGTT. We aim to assess if the novel biomarker glycated CD59 (gCD59) is a suitable contender for the OGTT in identifying women with GDM. METHODS In this prospective cohort study, the study participants will be consecutive pregnant women at Galway University Hospital, Galway, Ireland. Samples for the plasma gCD59 biomarker will be taken together with routine bloods at the first antenatal visit, at weeks 24-28 at the time of routine 75 g OGTT, in trimester 3- and 12-weeks post-partum for women with GDM while having their routine post-partum 75 g OGTT. The constructed database will contain baseline information on each study participant, baseline laboratory data, follow-up laboratory data and pregnancy related outcomes. We aim to recruit a total of 2,000 participants over the project period and with a national GDM prevalence of 12-13%, we will have 240-260 subjects who meet OGTT criteria for GDM. Following regional prevalence, we expect to have 34-37 women who will develop either diabetes or pre-diabetes in the early post-partum period. The sensitivity and specificity of plasma gCD59 to predict the results of the OGTT will be assessed using nonparametric estimates of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and respective area under the ROC curve (AUROC). DISCUSSION A body of clinical and experimental evidence supports a link between the complement system, complement regulatory proteins, and the pathogenesis of diabetes complications. Building on this research, our study plans to look at the plasma gCD59 capacity to classify pregnant women with normal or abnormal glucose tolerance but also to assess if plasma gCD59 can be used as an early predictor for GDM, for adverse pregnancy outcomes and/or post-partum glucose intolerance.

Abstract
CONTEXT Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) diagnosed in early pregnancy is a health care challenge because it increases the risk of adverse outcomes. Plasma-glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is an emerging biomarker for diabetes and GDM. The aim of this study was to assess the performance of pGCD59 as a biomarker of early GDM and its association with delivering a large for gestational age (LGA) infant. OBJECTIVES To assess the performance of pGCD59 to identify women with GDM in early pregnancy (GDM < 20) and assess the association of pGCD59 with LGA and potentially others adverse neonatal outcomes linked to GDM. METHODS Blood levels of pGCD59 were measured in samples from 693 obese women (body mass index > 29) undergoing a 75-g, 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at <20 weeks' gestation in the Vitamin D and Lifestyle Intervention study: the main analyses included 486 subjects who had normal glucose tolerance throughout the pregnancy, 207 who met criteria for GDM at <20 weeks, and 77 diagnosed with GDM at pregnancy weeks 24 through 28. Reference tests were 75-g, 2-hour OGTT adjudicated based on International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group criteria. The index test was a pGCD59 ELISA. RESULTS Mean pGCD59 levels were significantly higher (P < 0.001) in women with GDM < 20 (3.9 ± 1.1 standard peptide units [SPU]) than in those without (2.7 ± 0.7 SPU). pGCD59 accurately identified GDM in early pregnancy with an area under the curve receiver operating characteristic curves of 0.86 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.83-0.90). One-unit increase in maternal pGCD59 level was associated with 36% increased odds of delivering an LGA infant (odds ratio for LGA vs non-LGA infant: 1.4; 95% CI, 1.1-1.8; P = 0.016). CONCLUSION Our results indicate that pGCD59 is a simple and accurate biomarker for detection of GDM in early pregnancy and risk assessment of LGA.

Abstract
The mechanisms underlying the potential risks of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) have not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to explore changes in the complement and coagulation pathways in placentae subjected to IVF-ET in the first trimester compared to placentae from normal pregnancies. Four placenta samples in the first trimester were obtained from patients undergoing IVF-ET owing to oviductal factors only. An additional 4 control placentae were obtained from volunteers with normal pregnancies. A GeneChip Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 Array was utilized to analyze the changes in gene expression between the normal and IVF-ET placentae. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed using the Database for Annotation and Visualization and Integrated Discovery bioinformatics resource, and gene ontology enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were conducted. Using real-time PCR, we confirmed the obtained microarray data in 10 dysregulated genes. Five of the gene products were further analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) to determine their protein expression and localization. A total of fifty DEGs were identified in the complement and coagulation pathways in the IVF-ET treated placentae: 38 upregulated and 12 down-regulated. KEGG pathway analysis indicated that IVF-ET manipulation substantially over-activated the coagulation and complement pathways, while urokinase plasminogen activator- and urokinase plasminogen activator receptor-mediated trophoblastic invasion and tissue remodeling were inhibited. Furthermore, the 5 proteins analyzed by IHC were found to be localized specifically to the placenta. This is the first study to compare DEGs relating to the placental complement and coagulation pathways from patients undergoing IVF-ET treatment compared to those undergoing normal pregnancy. These findings identified valuable biomarkers and potential novel therapeutic targets to combat the unfavorable effects of IVF-ET.

Abstract
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases convened a workshop on research gaps in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) with a focus on 1) early pregnancy diagnosis and treatment and 2) pharmacologic treatment strategies. This article summarizes the proceedings of the workshop. In early pregnancy, the appropriate diagnostic criteria for the diagnosis of GDM remain poorly defined, and an effect of early diagnosis and treatment on the risk of adverse outcomes has not been demonstrated. Despite many small randomized controlled trials of glucose-lowering medication treatment in GDM, our understanding of medication management of GDM is incomplete as evidenced by discrepancies among professional society treatment guidelines. The comparative effectiveness of insulin, metformin, and glyburide remains uncertain, particularly with respect to long-term outcomes. Additional topics in need of further research identified by workshop participants included phenotypic heterogeneity in GDM and novel and individualized treatment approaches. Further research on these topics is likely to improve our understanding of the pathophysiology and treatment of GDM to improve both short- and long-term outcomes for mothers and their children.

Abstract
Hyperglycaemia that develops during pregnancy and resolves after birth has been recognized for over 50 years, but uniform worldwide consensus is lacking about threshold hyperglycaemic levels that merit a diagnosis of 'gestational diabetes mellitus' (GDM) and thus treatment during pregnancy. GDM is currently the most common medical complication of pregnancy, and prevalence of undiagnosed hyperglycaemia and even overt diabetes in young women is increasing. Maternal overweight and obesity, later age at childbearing, previous history of GDM, family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus and ethnicity are major GDM risk factors. Diagnosis is usually performed using an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), although a non-fasting, glucose challenge test (GCT) is used in some parts of the world to screen women for those requiring a full OGTT. Dietary modification and increased physical activity are the primary treatments for GDM, but pharmacotherapy, usually insulin, is used when normoglycaemia is not achieved. Oral hypoglycaemic agents, principally metformin and glibenclamide (glyburide), are also used in some countries. Treatment improves immediate pregnancy outcomes, reducing excess fetal growth and adiposity and pregnancy-related hypertensive disorders. GDM increases the risk of long-term complications, including obesity, impaired glucose metabolism and cardiovascular disease, in both the mother and infant. Optimal management of mother and infant during long-term follow-up remains challenging, with very limited implementation of preventive strategies in most parts of the world.

Abstract
Diabetes in pregnancy (DIP) is associated with an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Unfortunately guidelines and clinical practices vary significantly and a number of key issues remain under debate. These include: glucose cut-offs for diagnosis; the approaches of universal versus selective screening; appropriate timing of screening; and acceptability of various screening strategies to the population at risk. Economic considerations are also of importance, but unfortunately data outlining the best approach from this viewpoint are limited. In this paper, we review each of these topics and examine associated barriers and challenges associated with various strategies from a European perspective. We also address options which potentially may have a future role in the care of these women including alternative diagnostic biomarkers.

Abstract
The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) has identified non communicable maternal diseases (NCDs) as a new focus area. NCDs and exposures as related to pregnancy complications and later impairment of maternal and offspring health will form the basis for action in the forthcoming years. This paper summarizes recent advances, centered on the use of first-trimester testing, as a window of opportunity to predict and prevent many pregnancy complications; and for potential future prevention of NCDs in mother and offspring. Recent results from a large-scale randomized control trial have provided definitive proof that effective screening for preterm preeclampsia (preterm-PE), requiring delivery before 37 weeks' gestation, can be achieved with a combined test of maternal factors and biomarkers at 11-13 weeks and that aspirin, given to high-risk women, is effective in reducing the risk of preterm-PE and the length of stay in neonatal intensive care unit. This is the first successful example to illustrate that pregnancy complications is predictable and preventable in early pregnancy. Similar prediction and prevention strategies are being developed for hyperglycemia in pregnancy and preterm birth, with the intention for longer lasting interventions leading to significant downstream impact in improving long-term health in both mothers and babies.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP) is recognized as a major underlying cause of pregnancy complications and a contributing cause to health risks throughout the subsequent life of both mothers and babies, with amplification of the global epidemic of non-communicable diseases. Although some aspects of these associations are well described, detailed understanding of basic pathophysiologic mechanisms is lacking. Improved fundamental scientific knowledge must be developed to allow logical strategies for prevention and treatment. During pregnancy, much work is required to replace current empirical approaches to diagnosis and treatment of HIP with evidence based protocols, pragmatically adapted to differing health care and health economic contexts. Further, a life cycle approach to HIP, the risk of immediate pregnancy complications and later health risks to mother and baby must be developed and implemented across a wide range of health care environments. This document aims to outline key focus areas for further basic, epidemiologic, clinical and implementation research in this important area.

Abstract
Studies from Scotland and Canada confirm large increases in the incidence of pregnancies complicated by pregestational type 1 diabetes (T1D). With this increased antenatal workload comes more specialization and staff expertise, which may be important as diabetes technology use increases. While euglycemia remains elusive and obstetrical intervention (earlier delivery, increased operative deliveries) is increasing, there have been some notable successes in the past 5-10 years. These include a decline in the rates of congenital anomaly (Canada) and stillbirths (U.K.) and substantial reductions in both maternal hypoglycemia (both moderate and severe) across many countries. However, pregnant women with T1D still spend ∼30-45% of the time (8-11 h/day) hyperglycemic during the second and third trimesters. The duration of maternal hyperglycemia appears unchanged in routine clinical care over the past decade. This ongoing fetal exposure to maternal hyperglycemia likely explains the persistent rates of large for gestational age (LGA), neonatal hypoglycemia, and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions in T1D offspring. The Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Women With Type 1 Diabetes in Pregnancy Trial (CONCEPTT) found that pregnant women using real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) spent 5% less time (1.2 h/day) hyperglycemic during the third trimester, with clinically relevant reductions in LGA, neonatal hypoglycemia, and NICU admissions. This article will review the progress in our understanding of the intensive glycemic treatment of T1D pregnancy, focusing in particular on the recent technological advances in CGM and automated insulin delivery. It suggests that even with advanced diabetes technology, optimal maternal dietary intake is needed to minimize the neonatal complications attributed to postprandial hyperglycemia.

Abstract
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) has brought great harm to maternal and fetus. Up to now, only a few plasma biomarkers for its early diagnosis have been reported; nevertheless, there is no report about identification of urinary biomarkers for prediction of GDM. Thus, it is necessary to correct this deficiency. In our study, urine samples were collected from 889 healthy young gravidae at the early second trimester (15 to 20 weeks), 69 of whom were subsequently diagnosed with GDM at 24 to 28 weeks. iTRAQ (the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification) quantitative proteomics was conducted on sixteen GDM (trial group) and an equal number of matched healthy young gravidae (control group). Validation was performed in 40 cases of each group by ELISA. A total of 1,901 proteins were identified in this study, including 119 significantly differential proteins (fold change ≧1.2 or ≦0.83 and p < 0.05). Compared with control group, 83 differential proteins were increased and 36 proteins were decreased in GDM group. The validation for expression of CD59 and IL1RA showed significant difference and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.729 and 0.899, respectively (p < 0.05). The two candidate protein biomarkers (CD59 and IL1RA) in urine could be an early, noninvasive diagnostic predictors of young pravidae with GDM, and IL1RA is stronger diagnostic power than CD59.

Liu Y, Hou W, Meng X, Zhao W, Pan J, Tang J, Huang Y, Li H, Tao M, Liu F. Early elevated alkaline phosphatase increases the risk of large-for-gestational-age birth weight in pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2018; 141:209-216. [PMID: 29730386 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2018.04.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2018] [Revised: 03/30/2018] [Accepted: 04/12/2018] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to assess the association between levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in early pregnancy and the incidence of large-for-gestational-age (LGA) neonates in pregnant women without gestational diabetes mellitus. METHODS A prospective cohort was carried out in 544 women and their biochemical parameters including serum ALP and demographic characteristics were collected in 13-16th gestational week. At 24-28th weeks of gestation, 50 g oral glucose challenge test and oral 75 g glucose tolerance test was performed. LGA was defined as birth weight ≥ 90th percentile for completed week of gestational age based on the sex-specific growth curves. Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic analysis were utilized to identify independent risk factors and odds ratio among ALP quartiles for incidence of LGA. RESULTS Women diagnosed as LGA held higher level of ALP than women in non-LGA group (P = 0.008). Moreover, ALP (odds ratio (OR) 1.05 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.00, 1.10]) was the independent risk factors associated with LGA. Compared with ALP quartile 1, women in quartile 4 had more than 2.5-fold increased odds of LGA (OR 3.78, 95% CI: 1.10, 13.02), and the risk reached 4 times after adjusting several covariates (OR 4.15, 95% CI: 1.14,15.13). CONCLUSIONS A significantly increased risk of LGA was associated with higher serum concentrations of ALP in pregnant women with NGT, even it is in normal reference range.
