Metabolic Adaptations during Metabolic Adaptations during PregnancyPregnancy
placental hormones affect both glucose and lipid metabolism to ensure ample fetal fuel supply and nutrients always.
There is a switch from carbohydrate to fat utilization that is facilitated by both insulin resistance and increased plasma concentration of lipolytic hormones
Butte, NF. Carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in pregnancy: normal compared with gestational diabetes mellitus. Am J Clin Nutr 2000; 71:1256S.
![Page 15: DIABETES IN PREGNANCY Josephine Carlos-Raboca, MD Chief, Section of Endocrinology,Diabetes and Metabolism…](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062911/5a4d1bf67f8b9ab0599e8f26/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Metabolic Adaptations during Metabolic Adaptations during PregnancyPregnancy
The fasted state is one of “accelerated starvation”. Alternative fuels are made available for the mother and glucose is reserved for the fetus
Maternal Fuels: Free fatty acids, ketones, glycerol
There is hyperplasia of Beta cells, increased insulin secretion and early increase in insulin sensitivity followed by progressive insulin resistance. Butte, NF. Carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in pregnancy: normal compared with gestational diabetes mellitus. Am J Clin Nutr 2000; 71:1256S.
![Page 16: DIABETES IN PREGNANCY Josephine Carlos-Raboca, MD Chief, Section of Endocrinology,Diabetes and Metabolism…](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062911/5a4d1bf67f8b9ab0599e8f26/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Maternal insulin resistance results from increased release of diabetogenic hormones such as– Corticotropin Releasing Hormone– Chorionic Somatomammotropin– Progesterone– Tumor necrosis factor-a
A post receptor defect in the skeletal muscle B-subunit and at Insulin receptor substrate-1 may also contribute to the decline in insulin action.Yamashita, H, Shao, J, Friedman, JE. Physiologic and molecular alterations in carbohydrate metabolism during pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus. Clin Obstet Gynecol 2000; 43:87.

Metabolic Adaptations during Metabolic Adaptations during PregnancyPregnancy
Insulin levels are higher in both the fasting and the postprandial states during pregnancy
The fasting glucose is 10-20% lower in pregnancy due to:– Increased storage of tissue glycogen– Increased peripheral glucose utilization– Decreased hepatic glucose production– Glucose consumption by the fetus
![Page 18: DIABETES IN PREGNANCY Josephine Carlos-Raboca, MD Chief, Section of Endocrinology,Diabetes and Metabolism…](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062911/5a4d1bf67f8b9ab0599e8f26/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Metabolic Adaptations during Metabolic Adaptations during PregnancyPregnancy
The placenta readily transfers glucose, amino acids, and ketone bodies to the fetus but is impermeable to large lipids.
Serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels increase during pregnancy by approximately 300 and 50% respectively.
The large rise in TG is largely due to – Increased hepatic lipase activity– Reduced lipoprotein lipase activity

gestation.Jovanovic, L, Peterson, CM. Screening for gestational diabetes. Optimum timing and
criteria for retesting. Diabetes 1985; 34 Suppl 2:21.
It should be done during the first prenatal visit if there is high degree of suspicion that the patient has undiagnosed type 2 diabetes

How to screen for GDMHow to screen for GDMA fasting plasma glucose level of >126
mg/dL (7.0 mmol/l) or a casual plasma glucose >200mg/dL (11.1 mmol/l) meets the threshold for the diagnosis of diabetes, if confirmed on a subsequent day
Precludes the need for any glucose challenge

Insulin in pregnancyInsulin in pregnancy
Human insulin should be used if prescribed SBMG should guide the doses and timing of
insulin regimen The rapid Insulin analogs lispro and aspart have
been found to be clinically effective with minimal transfer across placenta and no evidence of teratogenesis. Level B
Long acting analogs – no study in pregnancy

Insulin TherapyInsulin Therapy~15% of women with GDM are placed on insulin
therapy
The dose of insulin varies in different populations because of varied rates of obesity, ethnic characteristics, and other demographic criteria
Generally 0.5 to 1.4 U/kg (present weight) is required to maintain target glucose levels.
A “mixed/split” insulin regimen is generally used

ConclusionsConclusions
Metformin is an effective and safe treatment option in gestational diabetes requiring insulin
Metformin is more acceptable to women than insulin
Long term study needed to establish long term safety

Peripartum ManagementPeripartum ManagementMaternal hyperglycemia should be avoided during labor to
prevent fetal hyper-insulinemia and subsequent neonatal hypoglycemia.
Maternal blood glucose concentration should be maintained between 70 and 90 mg/dL
Blood glucose should be monitored on the day after delivery to ensure that the mother no longer has hyperglycemia.

ConclusionsConclusions Pregnancy is a diabetogenic state Hyperglycemia causes adverse effects in pregnancy
for mother and fetus. Detection, diagnosis and proper treatment are
necessary for good pregnancy outcome. Diabetic patients must be prepared and assessed for
complications prior to pregnancy. Special problems for pregnant diabetics need to be
addressed.
