Abstract

To determine whether non-anaemic women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) diagnosed in third trimester pregnancy have evidence of increased iron stores compared with matched non-diabetic controls. In a prospective study, women who had antenatal booking before 20 weeks' gestation and without anaemia or diabetes mellitus were recruited at the time of the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 28-31 weeks' gestation for the study of serum ferritin, iron and transferrin concentrations. The results were blinded to the managing obstetricians. After delivery, the records were reviewed. The cases diagnosed as GDM were compared with a control group (two controls for each index case matched for parity) selected at random from the at-risk but nondiabetic cases. GDM was diagnosed in 97 of the 401 women recruited. Compared with the 194 controls, there was no difference in the weight, body mass index, booking and third trimester haemoglobin, or third trimester red cell indices, but concentrations of serum ferritin, iron, transferrin saturation, and the post-natal haemoglobin were significantly higher. On multiple regression analysis, maternal BMI and the log-transformed ferritin concentration remained significant determinants of the OGT...Continue Reading

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.
