Glucose gestational

All women should be screened with an oral glucose tolerance test between weeks 24 and 28 of gestation unless they are in the low-risk category. [Pg.648]

In Sprague-Dawley rat dams exposed to 20, 50, or 75 ppm of hydrogen sulfide for 7 hours/day from gestation day 1 through postnatal day 21, blood glucose levels were increased about 50% at all exposure concentrations (Hayden et al. 1990a). [Pg.63]

Pregnant rats exposed to 75 ppm of hydrogen sulfide from gestation days 1-21 had 50% increases in glucose levels (Hayden et al. 1990a). The relevance of this finding to humans is not known. [Pg.104]

Screening for gestational diabetes mellitus utilizes the oral glucose challenge test. Groups at high risk are African Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans, Latino Americans, and Pacific Islanders. [Pg.368]

First-line therapy includes nutritional and exercise interventions for all women, and caloric restrictions for obese women. If nutritional intervention fails to achieve fasting plasma glucose levels less than or equal to 105 mg/dL, 1-hour post-prandial plasma glucose concentrations less than or equal to 155 mg/dL, or 2-hour postprandial levels less than or equal to 130 mg/dL, then therapy with recombinant human insulin should be instituted glyburide may be considered after 11 weeks of gestation. [Pg.368]

Goals for self-monitoring of blood glucose are the same as for gestational diabetes. [Pg.372]

Diabetes mellitus is defined as an elevated blood glucose associated with absent or inadequate pancreatic insulin secretion, with or without concurrent impairment of insulin action. The disease states underlying the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus are now classified into four categories type 1, insulin-dependent diabetes) type 2, non-insulin-dependentdiabetes) type 3, other, and type 4, gestational diabetes mellitus (Expert Committee, 2003). [Pg.929]

In six women with gestational diabetes, acarbose 50 mg before meals normalized fasting and postprandial glucose concentrations (67). The pregnancies were uneventful and the neonates were healthy. Internal discomfort persisted during the whole pregnancy. [Pg.363]

The endocrine islet cells comprise only 1-2% of the pancreatic tissue. They synthesize the hormones insulin, glucagon, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide. Insulin and glucagon maintain glucose homeostasis via their actions on lipid, carbohydrate, and protein metabolism. The pancreas originates from two patches of epithelium in the duodenum during the fifth week of gestation in humans. The endocrine pancreatic cells begin to differentiate very... [Pg.48]
