PG - 174-178 LID - 10.1080/09513590.2018.1512094 [doi] AB - Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) imparts a high risk of developing postpartum diabetes and is considered to be an early stage of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test was performed on 472 women with GDM at 6-8 weeks after delivery. The clinical and metabolic characteristics were compared between the patients with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and abnormal glucose metabolism (AGM). These data were then compared between pre-diabetic and diabetic patients. A total of 37.7% of the women with GDM continued to have abnormal glucose levels after delivery. Compared with the women who reverted to normal, HOMA-IR was significantly higher in AGM. A multiple stepwise regression analysis revealed that age, the postpartum body mass index (BMI), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), 2 h glucose load plasma glucose (2 h PG), triglycerides (TG), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), 1 h glucose load plasma insulin (INS) level, and 2 h INS level were independent risk factors for the development of insulin resistance after delivery. This study has identified a high prevalence of AGM after GDM. Insulin resistance appears to be the major contributor. Any treatment to reduce the postpartum BMI and lipids level may be beneficial to decrease insulin resistance.
