OBJECTIVE—The aim of this study was to compare pregnancy outcomes in type 1 diabetic pregnancies with the background population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—This nationwide prospective multicenter took place eight Danish centers treating pregnant women diabetes during 1993–1999. A total 990 1,218 and delivery after 24 weeks (n = 1,215) or early termination due severe congenital malformations 3) were included.

To investigate the effect of gestational weight gain in obese glucose-tolerant women.We performed a historical cohort study 481 women with prepregnancy BMI > or = 30 kg/m2 and normal 2-h 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) during third trimester (according to World Health Organization criteria). Data on OGTT results clinical outcomes were collected from medical records. Four groups defined according gain: group 1, <5.0 kg (n 93); 2, 5.0-9.9 134); 3, 10.0-14.9 132); 4, 15.0 122).Birth...

Many reports have suggested that hyperandrogenaemic patients with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be insulin resistant. However, there also been suggestions their resistance relate to obesity and android fat distribution. To assess whether PCOS induces metabolic disturbances independently of obesity, we studied seven lean (age, 27.1 +/- 2.0 yr; body mass index, 22.2 0.78 kg/m2; waist/hip ratio, 0.79 0.02; fat-free mass, 46.38 1.13 kg) normal women 25.7 1.4 21.3 0.69 0.74 50.1 1.51...

Carbohydrate is the macronutrient that has greatest impact on blood glucose response. Limited data are available how carbohydrate distribution throughout day affects in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). We aimed to assess a high-carbohydrate morning-intake (HCM) versus low-carbohydrate-morning-intake (LCM), affect glycemic variability and control. In this randomized crossover study continuous monitoring (CGM) was performed 12 diet treated GDM (75 g, 2-h OGTT ≥ 8.5 mmol/L), who...
