Hemoglobin A1c Versus Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Postpartum Diabetes Screening

Abstract: OBJECTIVETo determine the usefulness of measuring hemoglobin A1c (A1C), alone or combined with the fasting glucose test, compared with the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) for the reassessment of the carbohydrate metabolism status in postpartum women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSWe evaluated the status of carbohydrate metabolism by performing the OGTT and fasting glucose and A1C tests in 231 postpartum women with prior GDM 1 year after delivery.RESULTSThe p… Show more

“…In our study, the CHOC had a higher content of sugar compared with the AAD and ALD, whereas other studies24, 36 compared the effects of consumption of dark chocolate with white chocolate that contained a similar amount of sugar and no flavanols. Furthermore, fasting glucose and insulin were measured after each treatment period in the present study, whereas the previously mentioned studies used an oral glucose tolerance test that showed a greater sensitivity than glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting glucose 37. Furthermore, participants in the current study had a normal glucose level at baseline, whereas studies with positive findings included participants with pre–diabetes mellitus27 or type 2 diabetes mellitus,7 which may account for discrepancies between studies.…”
