The purpose of this study is to investigate postprandial 1-h (PP1) and 2-h (PP2) blood glucose measurements' correlation with adverse perinatal outcomes. This prospective cohort study consisted of 259 women with gestational diabetes mellitus. During each antenatal visit, HbA1c and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) as well as plasma glucose at PP1 and PP2 were analyzed. There were 144 patients on insulin therapy and 115 patients on diet therapy. A total of 531 blood glucose measurements were obtained at different gestational ages between 24 and 41 gestational weeks. PP2 plasma glucose measurements (but not PP1) were positively correlated with fetal macrosomia. But on adjusted analysis, neither PP1 nor PP2 measurements predicted perinatal complications. In addition to PP1 and PP2, neither FPG nor HbA1c were able to predict perinatal complications or fetal macrosomia when controlled for confounding factors except for a positive correlation between fetal macrosomia and HbA1c in patients on diet therapy. Postprandial 1-h and postprandial 2-h plasma glucose measurements were not superior to each other in predicting fetal macrosomia or perinatal complications. Based on our findings, it can be concluded that both methods may be suitable for follow-up as there are no clear advantages of one measurement over the other.

Validity and reliability of time management questionnaire
ALAY, SEMA; Koçak, Mehmet Settar (SAGE Publications, 2002-01-01)
the purpose of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the 49-item Diabetes Time Management Questionnaire (DTMQ) in individuals with diabetes. The (DTMQ) was designed to assess general time management skills and those specifically relevant to compliance to a diabetes healthcare regimen.
Electrophysiologic vestibular evaluation in type 2 diabetic and prediabetic patients: Air conduction ocular and cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials

Objective: Chronically increased blood glucose levels may affect the vestibular system by damaging cells and neural structures in diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed to search the effects of neurovascular degeneration on the vestibular system in type 2 DM and prediabetic patients by using air-conducted ocular (oVEMP) and cervical (cVEMP) vestibular evoked myogenic potentials. Design: Prospective study. Study sample: Thirty diabetic, 30 prediabetic patients, and 31 age-and sex-matched controls having no periphe...
Prognostic Value of Maternal Cardiovascular Hemodynamics in Women With Gestational Hypertension and Chronic Hypertension in Pregnancy
Kalafat, Erkan; Perry, Helen; Bowe, Sophie; Thilaganathan, Basky; Khalil, Asma (Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2020-08-01)
This study aimed to assess the prognostic value of cardiovascular assessment in women with gestational hypertension or chronic hypertension for the risk of preeclampsia and need for closer antenatal surveillance. This was a prospective study of pregnancies complicated by gestational hypertension or chronic hypertension presenting to St George's Hospital, between January 2015 and May 2018. A noninvasive ultrasonic cardiac output monitor was used to obtain cardiovascular variables of cardiac output (CO) and s...
Time weighted average concentration monitoring of compounds with wide range of physicochemical properties in aquatic environment using thin film solid phase microextraction
Boyacı, Ezel; Ahmadi, Fardin; Pawliszyn, Janusz (null; 2017-03-05)
This study offers an integrated approach for time weighted average (TWA) concentration determination of analytes with a wide range of physical-chemical properties. Two types of thin film solid phase microextraction (TF-SPME) passive sampler, namely a retracted TF-SPME device using a hydrophilic lipophilic balance (HLB) sorbent and an open bed configuration TF-SPME device with octadecyl silica-based (C18) sorbent were developed and used for monitoring TWA concentrations of selected UV blockers and biocides. ...
Performance of Antenatal Diagnostic Criteria of Twin-Anemia-Polycythemia Sequence
Liu, Becky; Kalafat, Erkan; Bhide, Amar; Thilaganathan, Basky; Khalil, Asma (2020-09-01)
This study aims to elicit the validation performance of different diagnostic criteria and to evaluate the disease course and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies complicated by twin anemia polycythemia sequence (TAPS). Monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twin pregnancies who received serial middle cerebral artery (MCA) peak systolic velocity (PSV) measurements without non-TAPS-related demise or major anomalies were included. Course of disease, antenatal intervention, additional ultrasound features, and perinatal o...
