Bacterial abundance and antimicrobial resistance patterns of uropathogens among pregnant women with asymptomatic bacteriuria: Association with glycemic status

“…Scant available literature has revealed conflicting results. Analogous to our findings few have shown a higher prevalence of ASB and UTI in pregnant women with GDM [6] , [7] , [8] , while the rest others found no significant difference [9] , [10] , [11] . Besides hyperglycemia, no significant association was demonstrated with any other factors except for rural residence.…”

“…Diabetes mellitus (DM) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), whose prevalence is rapidly increasing worldwide, have been found to be an important risk factor for urogenital infections and deteriorating outcomes of infectious disorders [4] , [5] . Hyperglycemia and infection pose double trouble in pregnancy as both independently cause not only short-term fetomaternal complications but can also lead to foetal programming and adverse long-term fetomaternal consequences [4] , [6] . Few studies have been done to date, to explore the association of ASB with hyperglycemia in pregnancy and have reported conflicting results [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] .…”

Symptomatic urinary tract infection in diabetic pregnant women, effect of the type of diabetes and glycemic control

“…Pregnant diabetic women, whether they had either GDM or PGDM are at an increased risk of antenatal complications including symptomatic and asymptomatic UTI. [8] In this study, the predominant type of DM was GDM, while a minority of the women had PGDM (91% and 9%, respectively). DM adversely affects pregnancy outcomes such as preeclampsia, preterm labor, and cesarean delivery, as well as low mean birth weight (PGDM with microvascular involvement), and macrocosmic babies.…”
