To examine whether the association between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and BMI category varies by racial/ethnic group.In a cohort of 123,040 women without recognized pregravid who delivered babies 1995 2006 at Kaiser Permanente Northern California, we examined disparities in prevalence GDM population-attributable risk (PAR) associated with overweight/obesity.Among all groups, age-adjusted increased increasing (kg/m(2)) category. However, Asian Filipina had 9.9 8.5%, respectively,...

The was delivered by telephone, support for breastfeeding addressed.The goal help return their prepregnancy weight, if it normal, or achieve 5% reduction from weight overweight. Eligible participants were identified shortly after GDM diagnosis; 83.8% consented be randomly assigned usual medical care (96...
OBJECTIVE To explore whether treatment with pioglitazone was associated risk of incident cancer at the 10 most common sites (prostate, female breast, lung/bronchus, endometrial, colon, non-Hodgkin lymphoma [NHL], pancreas, kidney/renal pelvis, rectal, and melanoma). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A cohort study 252,467 patients aged ≥40 years from Kaiser Permanente Northern California Diabetes Registry conducted. All prescriptions for diabetes medications were identified by pharmacy records....
To compare the effectiveness of diabetes prevention strategies addressing postpartum weight retention for women with gestational mellitus (GDM) delivered at health system level: mailed recommendations (usual care) versus usual care plus a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)-derived lifestyle intervention.This study was cluster randomized controlled trial 44 medical facilities (including 2,280 GDM) to intervention or care. The included gain 13 telephone sessions between 6 weeks and months...
Summary Background COVID-19 is an ongoing threat to society. Patients who develop the most severe forms of disease have high mortality. The interleukin-6 inhibitor tocilizumab has potential improve outcomes in these patients by preventing development cytokine release storm. Aims To evaluate with treated tocilizumab. Methods We conducted a retrospective, case–control, single-center study critical Disease severity was defined based on amount oxygen supplementation required. primary endpoint...
In Brief OBJECTIVE: To estimate the association between interpregnancy change in body mass index (BMI) and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) a second pregnancy. METHODS: retrospective cohort analysis 22,351 women, logistic regression models provided adjusted estimates GDM women gaining 3.0 or more 2.0–2.9, 1.0–1.9 BMI units, losing 1.0–2.0 than 2.0 units pregnancies (one unit corresponds to 5.9 pounds for average height [5 feet 4 inches] study population). Women with stable BMIs...
To examine whether circulating total and high-molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin concentrations, measured before pregnancy, are associated with subsequent risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).This was a nested case-control study among women who participated in the Kaiser Permanente Northern California Multiphasic Health Check-up exam (1984-1996) serum sample obtained had pregnancy (1984-2009). Eligible were free recognized diabetes. Case subjects 256 developed GDM. Two control...

The groups were non-Hispanic white, African American, Hispanic, Asian, Filipina. BMI was classified using World Health Organization International guidelines (normal, 18.50-24.99;...
Women with gestational diabetes (GDM) are at high risk of developing later in life. After a GDM diagnosis, women receive prenatal care to control their blood glucose levels via diet, physical activity and medications. Continuing such lifestyle skills into early motherhood may reduce the this population. In Gestational Diabetes' Effects on Moms (GEM) study, we evaluating comparative effectiveness prevention strategies for weight management designed pregnant/postpartum delivered health system...
Abstract Background: Several epidemiologic studies have reported strong inverse associations between metformin use and risk of colorectal cancer, although time-related biases, such as immortal time bias, may in part explain these findings. We reexamined this association using methods to minimize biases. Methods: A cohort study was conducted among 47,351 members Kaiser Permanente Northern California with diabetes no history cancer or use. Follow-up for incident occurred from January 1, 1997,...

We evaluated association change changes in glucose, insulin and homeostasis model assessment resistance a subsample ( n = 72) participants from Diet Exercise Breastfeeding Intervention DEBI ), randomized pilot trial lifestyle intervention women Methods Glucose were measured fasting 2 h after an oral glucose tolerance test 6 weeks 12 months post‐partum....
Abstract Methodologic biases may explain why observational studies examining metformin use in relation to lung cancer risk have produced inconsistent results. We conducted a cohort study further investigate this relationship, accounting for potential biases. For 47,351 patients with diabetes ages ≥40 years, who completed health-related survey administered between 1994 and 1996, data on prescribed medications were obtained from electronic pharmacy records. Follow-up incident occurred January...
In the present study, we estimated association between pregnancy glucose levels and offspring body mass index (BMI) z scores at 2, 3.5, 5, 7 years of age, as well score trajectories across this age range, among Mexican-American women without diabetes or gestational diabetes. Beginning in 1999–2000, Center for Health Assessment Mothers Children Salinas prospectively followed from Monterey County, California (52 obese 214 nonobese women) their children. Plasma values obtained 1 hour after a...
