Aim. To develop a tool for the prediction of perinatal complications in pregnant women with gestational diabetes utilizing conventional and ultrasound markers of diabetic fetopathy.Materials and Methods. We analyzed 128 case histories of women who suffered from gestational diabetes. Among their newborns, 35 had clinical manifestations of maternal hyperglycemia (birth weight > 90th percentile, neonatal hyperglycemia, respiratory distress syndrome, and neonatal jaundice) while 74 were free of the indicated signs and symptoms.Results. Risk factors of maternal hyperglycemia manifestations in neonates included family history of diabetes mellitus type 2, obesity, and pre-eclampsia. Maternal hyperglycemia was significantly associated with the higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes. A combination of ≥ 4 ultrasound оценке markers of a diabetic fetopathy permitted the diagnosis of the fetal macrosomia. Conclusion. Ultrasound markers of diabetic fetopathy have limited sensitivity in the prediction of perinatal complications after gestational diabetes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
