Abnormal Post-partum Glucose Metabolism After Gestational Diabetes Diagnosed Before or After 24 Weeks of Gestation
- Conditions
- Gestational DiabetesType 2 DiabetesGlucose Intolerance
- Interventions
- Biological: Post-partum oral glucose tolerance test
- Registration Number
- NCT01839448
- Lead Sponsor
- Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
- Brief Summary
The main objective of the study is to estimate and compare the percentage of patients with abnormal glucose metabolism at 4-12 weeks postpartum between two groups: patients diagnosed with gestational diabetes before or after 24 weeks of pregnancy. Abnormal glucose metabolism is defined as type 2 diabetes, glucose intolerance or impaired fasting glucose.
- Detailed Description
The secondary objectives of this study are to compare between the two groups:
A. the rate of type 2 diabetes only, glucose intolerance only, impaired fasting glucose only, and patients requiring insulin at 4-12 weeks postpartum
B. rates of maternal and obstetric complications
C. risk factors (age, body mass index, personal history of gestational diabetes or macrosomia, first degree family history of diabetes).
D. For fasting glucose done before 24SA, we will calculate the optimal threshold for predicting abnormal glucose metabolism in the immediate postpartum period among women with gestational diabetes.

Group Intervention Description GD diagnosed at 24 to 28 weeks Post-partum oral glucose tolerance test Patients in this group are diagnosed with gestational diabetes between 24 and 28 weeks of amenorrhea based on a normal fasting blood glucose level before 24 weeks of amenorrhea AND an abnormal oral glucose tolerance test between 24 and 28 weeks of amenorrhea. Intervention: Post-partum oral glucose tolerance test GD diagnosis before 24 weeks Post-partum oral glucose tolerance test Patients in this group are diagnosed with gestational diabetes (GD) before 24 weeks of amenorrhea by means of a fasting blood glucose test \>= 0.92 g/l. Intervention: Post-partum oral glucose tolerance test
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Presence/absence of abnormal glucose metabolism 4 to12 weeks post-partum Includes type 2 diabetes, glucose intolerance and impaired fasting glucose
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Presence/absence of glucose intolerance 4 to 12 weeks post-partum Presence/absence of impaired fasting glucose 4 to12 weeks post-partum European definition: defined as between 1.1 and 1.26 g/l
