Women with glucose intolerance after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at high risk to develop type 2 diabetes. Traditional lifestyle interventions in early postpartum have limited impact. We investigated the efficacy of a blended mobile-based intervention women recent history GDM.
To determine risk factors for early postpartum weight retention (PPWR) and glucose intolerance (GI) in women with gestational diabetes (GDM).Prospective, multicenter (n=8) cohort study 1201 a recent history of GDM. Pregnancy characteristics, data from self-administered questionnaires were collected at the 6-16 weeks 75g OGTT.Of all participants, 38.6% (463) had moderate (>0 ≤5 kg) 15.6% (187) high (>5kg) PPWR. Independent predictors PPWR excessive gain (GWG), lack breastfeeding, higher...
The aims of the ‘Mobile-based lifestyle intervention in women with glucose intolerance after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)’ study (MELINDA) are: (1) to evaluate prevalence and risk factors a recent history GDM; (2) efficacy feasibility telephone- mobile-based GDM. This is Belgian multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) seven hospitals aim recruiting 236 women. Women group will receive blended program, based on one face-to-face education session further follow-up through mobile...
Aim. Our aim was to evaluate the uptake of our current screening strategy postpartum and risk factors for glucose intolerance in women with a recent history gestational diabetes (GDM). Methods. Retrospective analysis files GDM diagnosed Carpenter Coustan criteria from 01-01-2010 till 31-12-2013. Multivariable logistic regression used adjust confounders. Results. Of all 231 GDM, 21.4% (46) did not attend scheduled OGTT. tested, 39.1% (66) had 5.3% (9) diabetes. These were more often...
To determine the impact of breastfeeding on risk postpartum glucose intolerance in women with gestational diabetes.
Abstract Aims To determine risk factors for 1‐year postpartum weight retention (PPWR) and glucose intolerance (prediabetes + diabetes) in women with a previous history of gestational diabetes (GDM) prediabetes early postpartum. Methods In this exploratory analysis the MELINDA randomized controlled trial, we report data 167 at 6–16 weeks (early) oral tolerance test after recent GDM. Results Of all participants, 45% (75) had PPWR >0 kg Compared to without PPWR, higher gain [10.5 ± 6.4 vs....
