RESUMO
AIMS: To examine insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) use with pregnancy-related outcomes in women with type 1 diabetes. METHODS: We abstracted medical records of 646 pregnancies in 478 women with type 1 diabetes, with information on insulin pump versus multiple daily injection (MDI) use and CGM use. We analyzed the associations of pump vs. MDI use, CGM use vs. non-use and pregnancy-related outcomes using mixed effect models. RESULTS: Pump use was associated with lower HbA1c levels in the first [ß (95% CI) = -0.33 (-0.51, -0.15) %] and second trimester [ß (95% CI) = -0.13 (-0.24, -0.02) %], increased birth weight [ß (95% CI) = 0.14 (0.02, 0.26) kg], birth weight percentile [ß (95% CI) = 4.87 (0.49, 9.26) %], higher odds of large for gestational age [OR (95% CI) = 1.65 (1.06, 2.58)] and macrosomia [OR (95% CI) = 1.81 (1.03, 3.18)]. CGM use was associated with lower first [ß (95% CI) = -0.38 (-0.64, -0.13) %] and third trimester [ß (95% CI) = -0.17 (-0.33, -0.00) %] HbA1c levels. CONCLUSIONS: Women with type 1 diabetes who used pump or CGM had better glycemic control during pregnancy; however, pump use was associated with higher birth weight measures.

OBJECTIVE: To examine time trends in US pregnant women with type 1 diabetes mellitus for maternal characteristics and pregnancy outcomes. STUDY DESIGN: We abstracted clinical data from the medical records of 700 pregnant women from 2004 to 2017. For each time period, means and percentages were calculated. P values for trend were calculated using linear and logistic regression. RESULTS: HbA1c in each trimester was unchanged across the analysis period. The prevalence of nephropathy decreased from 4.8% to 0% (P = 0.002). Excessive gestational weight gain increased (P = 0.01). Gestation length also increased (P = 0.01), as did vaginal deliveries (P = 0.03). There were no change in birthweight over time (P = 0.07) and the percentage of neonates with macrosomia and large for gestational age (LGA) neonates also remained unchanged. CONCLUSION: Obstetric guideline changes may have improved gestation length and mode of delivery; however, other outcomes need more attention, including excessive gestational weight gain, macrosomia, and LGA.

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether glycemic control, soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt1) and placental growth factor (PlGF) were associated with the development of preeclampsia (PE) or gestational hypertension (GHTN) in women with preexisting diabetes. METHODS: Maternal circulating angiogenic factors (sFlt1 and PlGF) measured on automated platform were studied at four time points during pregnancy in women with diabetes (N = 159) and reported as multiples of the median (MOM) of sFlt1/PlGF ratio (median, 25th-75th percentile) noted in non-diabetic non-hypertensive control pregnant population (N = 139). Diagnosis of PE or GHTN was determined by review of de-identified clinical data. RESULTS: PE developed in 12% (N = 19) and GHTN developed in 23% (N = 37) of the women with diabetes. Among diabetic women without PE or GHTN, median sFlt1/PlGF levels at 35-40 weeks was threefold higher than in non-diabetic controls [MOM 3.21(1.19-7.24), p = 0.0001]. Diabetic women who subsequently developed PE had even greater alterations in sFlt1/PlGF ratio during the third trimester [MOM for PE at 27-34 weeks 15.18 (2.37-26.86), at 35-40 weeks 8.61(1.20-18.27), p ≤ 0.01 for both windows compared to non-diabetic controls]. Women with diabetes who subsequently developed GHTN also had significant alterations in angiogenic factors during third trimester; however, these findings were less striking. Among women with diabetes, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) during the first trimester was higher in subjects who subsequently developed PE (7.7 vs 6.7%, p = 0.0001 for diabetic PE vs diabetic non-PE). CONCLUSIONS: Women with diabetes had a markedly altered anti-angiogenic state late in pregnancy that was further exacerbated in subjects who developed PE. Altered angiogenic factors may be one mechanism for the increased risk of PE in this population. Increased HbA1c in the first trimester of pregnancies in women with diabetes was strongly associated with subsequent PE.
