Impact of maternal diabetes status on adverse neonatal and early childhood outcomes

FY 2016-17

Summary
There are three types of diabetes in pregnancy: type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) that can be present prior to pregnancy, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) which is diabetes first diagnosed in pregnancy. Although the rates of T1DM have remained stable over the years, rates of T2DM and GDM are increasing, primarily as a result of increasing maternal age and obesity. Our study explores the impact of these three types of diabetes on the health of the babies.
