Adverse metabolic outcomes in the early and late postpartum after gestational diabetes are broader than glucose control

Abstract: IntroductionGestational diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. To better target preventive measures, we performed an in-depth characterization of cardiometabolic risk factors in a cohort of women with gestational diabetes in the early (6–8 weeks) and late (1 year) postpartum.Research design and methodsProspective cohort of 622 women followed in a university gestational diabetes clinic between 2011 and 2017. 162 patients who attended the late postpartum visit were analyzed in a n… Show more

“…Several studies have demonstrated that mothers with a history of GDM are more susceptible to its recurrence in subsequent pregnancies [8]. Moreover, GDM is an independent risk factor for many chronic illnesses that affect both women and their offspring in later life, including cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome [9,10]. These short-and long-term negative consequences not only endanger the physical and mental health of mothers and children [11] but also incur a heavy financial burden on families and the society [12].…”

The potential short-term impacts for mothers include increased risk of pre-eclampsia, polyhydramnios, shoulder dystocia, stillbirth and infectious complications 7.…”
