GEBELİKTE BESLENME DURUMU İLE GLUKOZ TOLERANSI ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİLER

Objective: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a form of diabetes that appears during pregnancy and can cause both maternal and fetal consequences if left untreated.The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the nutritional characteristics of pregnancy and the development of GDM and gestational glucose intolerance (GGIT).Similarly, age, daily protein consumption, having a macrosomic baby, and current smoking were positively associated with the risk of GGIT. Conclusion:The phenotypic characteristics, family history of diabetes, and previous obstetric problems in pregnant women were found to be closely related to GDM or GGIT risk.Special attention should be paid to general health and balanced nutrition, especially in high-risk pregnant women.
