Clinical study of pregnancy-associated fulminant type 1 diabetes

ConclusionsPF patients showed a more severe acidosis, with maternal and fetal mortality rates being high. PG/HbA1C ratio with a threshold of ≥3.3 can be used as a cut-off point in predicting PF from DKA in China. Elevated PG/HbA1C ratio at the time of diagnosis is predictive for more severe insulin secretion dysfunction and poor prognosis.
