| Popis: | Background: The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is the current established method performed worldwide to diagnose gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). The purpose of this study was to assess the utility of the use of long- and short-term markers of glycemic status. Methods: The study group was composed of 80 pregnant women, 40 with GDM and 40 with normal glucose tolerance. GDM was diagnosed with the American Diabetes Association criteria. Glycemic markers were measured in the OGTT blood samples of women at 24–28 weeks of gestation. Results: HbA1c was significantly higher in the GDM group when compared with the controls, whereas 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) levels were significantly lower. There was not a significant difference between the groups for glycated albumin. Whereas HbA1c levels were correlated with fasting and 1 h glucose and negatively correlated with mean corpuscular volume, 1,5-AG was only negatively correlated with the first hour glucose. No difference was found for the diagnostic performances of HbA1c and 1,5-AG (receiver operating characteristic of the area under the concentration curve values were 0.756 and 0.722, respectively). Conclusion: HbA1c and 1,5-AG alone does not have sufficient diagnostic accuracy to diagnose GDM. 1,5-AG values were correlated with post-load glucose values in pregnant women so will improve the GDM management and be useful to predict complications. |
