Increased Fat Mass and Cardiac Septal Hypertrophy in Newborn Infants of Mothers with Well-Controlled Diabetes during Pregnancy

Abstract: Background: Improved glycaemic control during pregnancy in mothers with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and gestational diabetes (GDM) has resulted in a marked reduction of perinatal mortality and morbidity, but the prevalence of macrosomia is usually high. Objective: We used non-invasive anthropometric methods to estimate the body composition and the thickness of the interventricular heart septum in 18 infants of mothers with well-controlled T1DM, 10 infants of mothers with GDM and 28 infants of healthy control mother… Show more

“…Current preventative measures focus on glucose control (2). However, women with good glycemic control also have affected infants (1,34,51,64), implicating additional contributing fuels, such as lipids (10,30). The relative contribution of excess circulating lipids to the pathogenesis of cardiac disease in offspring of diabetic pregnancies is not well understood or studied.…”

“…It is certainly plausible that excess circulating maternal fuels and fetal hyperinsulinemia trigger a similar process in the developing heart. Indeed, infants born to mothers with diabetes and obesity have similar cardiac findings at birth, even when glycemic control is good (1,34,51,64), also suggesting that lipids play an underrecognized role (9,30).…”

“…Hipertrofi genellikle makrozomiyle birlikte bulunur. Yüksek fetal insülin seviyesinin, vücutta ve miyokarda yağ ve glikojen depolanmasına yol açtığı ve septal hipertrofiye neden olduğu düşünülmektedir 27 . Hipertrofi, transtorasik EKO inceleme ile uygun bir şekilde değerlendirilebilir.…”
