• Abstract

  Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is an increasingly prevalent endocrine pathology associated with obstetric and perinatal complications. The development of mild inflammatory reaction and insulin resistance (IR) are part of the physiological adaptive phenomena of normal gestations and, in patients with GDM, these two processes are exacerbated. These alterations seem to be related to the…

  Co-stimulatory molecules, microRNAs, and modulation of the maternal-fetal immune response in gestational Diabetes Mellitus, AP.R

• Abstract

  Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), the major endocrine disease in pregnancy, is associated with obstetric and perinatal complications. Increased insulin resistance (IR) and the development of a mild and transitory inflammatory response are physiological adaptations that occur in healthy pregnancy; however, in GDM these changes are more intense. There is a strong link between IR and immu…

  Assessment of the cellular and functional profile of amniotic membranes of diabetic pregnant women, AP.R

• Abstract

  Gestational Diabetes (GD) the most frequent metabolic disorder in pregnancy, is defined as glucose intolerance that appears during pregnancy and affects between 1-25% of all pregnant women, according to the population characteristics and the diagnosis criteria used. Although low grade inflammation and insulin resistance (IR) are part of the physiologic adaptative phenomena of normal pregn…

  Evaluation of immune cells profile in patients with gestational diabetes, AP.R

(Only some records are available in English at this moment)

• Abstract

  Gestational Diabetes (GD) is characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from insufficient insulin secretion by pancreatic ² cells to fulfill the metabolic demands of the pregnant and is a major risk of medical complications for both the mother and the fetus. Several factors seem implicated in the pathophysiology of DG, including alterations in the mechanisms of tolerance to the fetus and tr…

  Evaluation of T lymphocytes, NK cells and NKT cells in peripheral blood of patients with Gestational Diabetes, BP.IC

• Abstract

  Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as glucose intolerance of variable severity, which appeared or was diagnosed during pregnancy. The incidence of overweight reproductive age women is increasing significantly throughout the world, raising the risks for GDM and other obstetric complications. Investigations on the association gestation/obesity/GDM have been focused primarily on…

  Inflammatory mediators in overweight pregnant women and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus, BP.MS

• Abstract

  The incidence of obesity is increasing continuously worldwide, affecting including women on reproductive age. The exact relationship between obesity and pregnancy is not yet completely understood, but it is known that the association between these two conditions results in an intense inflammatory process which increases the risk of pregnancy complications and adverse obstetric outcomes. S…
