Summary:Aims To compare obstetric and perinatal outcomes in women with Type1 and Type2 diabetes and relate these to maternal risk factors.

Relationships between congenital malformation, perinatal mortality and perinatal morbidity (large for gestational age, preterm delivery, neonatal care) with maternal age, parity, ethnicity, glycaemic control, obesity and social disadvantage were examined using bivariable and multivariate models.
