The Fetal Heart in Gestational Diabetes: the long-term effects. BJOG. 2020 Aug 08;: Authors: Hod M Abstract Hyperglycemia is the most common medical complication of pregnancy. It is a broad term that encompasses various forms of glucose dysregulation seen during pregnancy. The International Diabetes Federation estimates that 1 in 6 live births (16.8%) occur to women with some form of hyperglycemia; 16% of these due to overt diabetes in pregnancy (DIP) and the remaining 84% due to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). DIP maybe either preexisting diabetes (type 1 or type 2) antedating pregnancy, or overt diabetes first diagnosed during pregnancy. PMID: 32770722 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
