The Institute of Medicine updated guidelines for gestational weight gain in 2009, with no special recommendations for gestational diabetes. Our objectives were to describe the prevalence of weight gain adequacy and their association with adverse pregnancy outcomes in gestational diabetes. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, COCHRANE and SCOPUS. We calculated the pooled prevalence of gain adequacy and relative risks for pregnancy outcomes within Institute of Medicine categories. Thirty-three studies/abstracts (88,599 women) were included. Thirty-one studies provided data on the prevalence of weight gain adequacy; it was adequate in 34% (95% CI: 29-39%) of women, insufficient in 30% (95% CI: 27-34%) and excessive in 37% (95% CI: 33-41%). Excessive gain was associated with increased risks of pharmacological treatment, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, caesarean section, large for gestational age and macrosomic babies, compared to adequate or non-excessive gain. Weight gain below the guidance had a protective effect on large babies (RR: 0.71; 95% CI: 0.56-0.90) and macrosomia (RR 0.57; 95% CI 0.40-0.83), and did not increase the risk of small babies (RR 1.40; 95% CI 0.86-2.27). Less than recommended weight gain would be beneficial, while effective prevention of excessive gain is of utmost importance, in gestational diabetes pregnancies. Nevertheless, no ideal range for weight gain could be established.
Comprehensive periodontal treatment and strict plaque control significantly improved periodontal health; however, no reduction of PTLBW rates was observed. Thus, remaining periodontal inflammation posttreatment cannot explain the lack of effect of periodontal treatment on PTLBW. Clinical relevance This study demonstrated that periodontal diseases may be successfully treated during pregnancy. Our results do not support a potential beneficial effect of periodontal treatment on PTLBW.
SUMÁRIOO tratamento do diabetes gestacional é importante para evitar a morbimortalidade materno--fetal. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever o tratamento atualmente disponível para o manejo otimizado da hiperglicemia na gestação e sugerir um algoritmo de tratamento multidisciplinar. A terapia nutricional é a primeira opção de tratamento para as gestantes, e a prática de exercício físico leve a moderado deve ser estimulada na ausência de contraindicações obstétricas. O tratamento medicamentoso está recomendado quando os alvos glicêmicos não são atingidos ou na presença de crescimento fetal excessivo à ultrassonografia. O tratamento tradicional do diabetes gestacional é a insulinoterapia, embora mais recentemente a metformina venha sendo considerada uma opção segura e eficaz. A monitorização do tratamento é realizada com aferição da glicemia capilar e com avaliação da circunferência abdominal fetal por meio de ultrassonografia obstétrica a partir da 28 a semana de gestação. INTRODUÇÃOO diabetes gestacional é definido como qualquer grau de redução da tolerância à glicose, cujo início ou detecção ocorre durante a gravidez (1,2). Sua prevalência é variável, dependendo dos critérios diagnósticos empregados e da população estudada (1). No Brasil, em torno de 7% das gestações são complicadas pela hiperglicemia gestacional (3).Habitualmente, o diagnóstico do diabetes gestacional é realizado por busca ativa, com testes provocativos que empregam sobrecarga de glicose, a partir do segundo trimestre da gestação. Mais recentemente, tem-se recomendado a triagem precoce de gestantes de alto risco na primeira consulta pré-natal, o que permite identificar casos de diabetes preexistente e que não devem, portanto, ser rotulados como diabetes gestacional (1,4).
Objetivos: descrever, em gestantes do Estudo Brasileiro do Diabetes Gestacional (EBDG), a distribuição da altura uterina de acordo com a idade gestacional e validar a curva do Centro Latino-Americano de Perinatologia (CLAP), curva de referência para a predição de anormalidades do crescimento fetal. Métodos: o EBDG é uma coorte de 5564 gestantes, com mais de 19 anos, seguidas até e após o parto. Entrevistas e medidas antropométricas padronizadas foram feitas no arrolamento entre a 20ª e a 28ª semana. Os prontuários foram revisados segundo protocolo padronizado, abrangendo os períodos de pré-natal e parto. As análises referem-se a 3539 gestantes com datação da gravidez confi rmada por ultra-sonografi a. Determinamos as propriedades diagnósticas dos percentis 10 e 90 de altura uterina de ambas as curvas (EBDG e CLAP) como indicadores de anormalidade no peso neonatal. Resultados: as medidas de altura uterina no EBDG foram maiores que as do CLAP em todas as semanas de gestação (1 a 4 cm e 2 a 6 cm, respectivamente, nos percentis 10 e 90). O percentil 10 do CLAP identifi cou como pequenas as medidas uterinas de 0,3 a 1,7% das gestantes brasileiras, ao passo que o percentil 90 classifi cou como grandes as medidas uterinas de 42 a 57% das brasileiras. A sensibilidade do percentil 10 do CLAP para predizer recém-nascidos pequenos para a idade gestacional variou de 0,8 a 6% e a especifi cidade do percentil 90 para predizer grandes para a idade gestacional, de 46 a 61%. Conclusões: a curva de referência do CLAP não refl ete o padrão de crescimento uterino das gestantes brasileiras, limitando sua capacidade de identifi car anormalidades de crescimento fetal, especialmente a restrição de crescimento.
Objectives:The aims of this study were to estimate the local rate of postpartum diabetes screening after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) pregnancies, and to identify clinical variables associated with retesting rates and with the persistence of decreased glucose tolerance. Subjects and methods:Prospective cohort of GDM women with prenatal delivery at a specialized center, from November 2009 to May 2012. All women were advised to schedule a 6 weeks postpartum 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Results: Of the 209 women included, 108 (51.7%) returned to be tested with fasting plasma glucose (n = 14), OGTT (n = 93) or random glucose (n = 1). Return was associated with lower parity rate (2 vs. 3, p < 0.001) and higher pregnancy 2-h OGTT (165 vs. 155 mg/dL, p = 0.034), but not with socio-demographic characteristics. Four women (3.7%) had diabetes, 22 (20.4%) had impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance. Persistent hyperglycemia was associated with a positive family history of diabetes (relative risk -RR 2.41, p = 0.050), diagnostic 2-h OGTT in pregnancy (RR 1.01, p = 0.045), insulin use during pregnancy (RR 2.37, p = 0.014), and cesarean section (RR 2.61, p = 0.015). Conclusions: Even though postpartum abnormalities were frequent in GDM, rates of postpartum diabetes screening were undesirably low. As no specific clinical profile defines who will adhere to postpartum testing, it is essential to encourage all women to reevaluate their glucose status, particularly those with a family history of diabetes and more severe hyperglycemia. Resultados: Das 209 mulheres arroladas na gestação, 108 (51,7%) foram avaliadas após o parto: 14 com glicemia de jejum, 93 com o TOTG e uma com glicemia ao acaso. O retorno para reavaliação foi associado com menor paridade (2 vs. 3, p < 0,001) e com glicemia de 2-h mais elevada no TOTG diagnóstico (165 vs. 155 mg/dL, p = 0,034). Diabetes foi diagnosticado em quatro mulheres (3,7%) e pré-diabetes em 22 (20,4%). Análise multivariada evidenciou que a história familiar de diabetes (risco relativo -RR 2,41, p = 0,050), a glicemia de 2 horas no TOTG da gestação (RR 1,01, p = 0,045), o uso de insulina na gestação (RR 2,37, p = 0,014) e a taxa de cesariana (RR 2,61, p = 0,015) foram os fatores associados à persistência da hiperglicemia. Conclusões: O retorno para reavaliação foi baixo, embora as alterações glicêmicas tenham sido frequentes. Como não houve fatores que indiquem quais mulheres retornarão, estratégias para aumentar a adesão são necessárias, especialmente quando há história familiar ou o DMG foi mais grave.

Guidelines of the 2 nd Meeting of The Diabetes and Pregnancy Task Force.Clinical guidelines for the management of gestational and pre-gestational diabetes were prepared by the Diabetes and Pregnancy Task Force, during the XI Brazilian Diabetes Congress, held in 1997. A new meeting was held in 2001 to revise recommendations for screening, diagnosis and management of gestational diabetes, based on the new evidences generated on these issues. Universal screening of pregnant women is advised beginning at the 20 th week of gestation, using fasting plasma glucose. Cut points of 85mg/dl or 90mg/dl are used to classify a positive screening. A 75g oral glucose tolerance test is performed if the screening test is positive. The diagnostic cut points suggested to define glucose alterations are a fasting plasma glucose ≥110mg/dl or a 2h plasma glucose ≥140mg/dl. Endocrine and obstetric management of gestational diabetes as well as a review on pre-gestational diabetes management are also presented.
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The prevalence and characteristics of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have changed over time, reflecting the nutritional transition and changes in diagnostic criteria. We aimed to evaluate characteristics of women with GDM over a 20-year interval. DESIGN AND SETTING: Comparison of two pregnancy cohorts enrolled in different periods, in university hospitals in Porto Alegre, Brazil: 1991 to 1993 and 2009 to 2013 (n = 375). METHODS:We applied two diagnostic criteria to the cohorts: International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG)/World Health Organization (WHO); and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). We compared maternal-fetal characteristics and outcomes between the cohorts and within each cohort. RESULTS:The women in the 2010s cohort were older (31 ± 7 versus 30 ± 6 years), more frequently obese (29.4% versus 15.2%), with more hypertensive disorders (14.1% versus 5.6%) and at increased risk of cesarean section (adjusted relative risk 1.8; 95% confidence interval: 1.4 -2.3), compared with those in the 1990s cohort. Neonatal outcomes such as birth weight category and hypoglycemia were similar. In the 1990s cohort, women only fulfilling IADPSG/WHO or only fulfilling NICE criteria had similar characteristics and outcomes; in the 2010s cohort, women only diagnosed through IADPSG/WHO were more frequently obese than those diagnosed only through NICE (33 ± 8 kg/m 2 versus 28 ± 6 kg/m 2 ; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: The epidemic of obesity seems to have modified the profile of women with GDM. Despite similar neonatal outcomes, there were differences in the intensity of treatment over time. The IADPSG/ WHO criteria seemed to identify a profile more associated with obesity. RESUMO
