Objective: To investigate prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in patients with gestational transient thyroxicosis (GTT).
Methods: Fifty two patients with GTT and 100 age matched healthy pregnant women were included. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, thyrotrophin (TSH) and thyroid hormones were measured at thyrotoxic state in GTT patients and at 6-12th weeks of pregnancy in control group. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with 100 g glucose was performed and laboratory parameters were re-evaluated at 24-28th weeks of pregnancy in all subjects.
Results: Mean age of patients with GTT was 28.46 ± 5.45 and control group was 27.78 ± 3.75(p = 0.085). Patients with GTT had significantly higher HbA1c, LDL-cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol at 6-12th weeks of pregnancy (p |
