Abstract:
Objective To analyze the perinatal outcomes of those women experienced hypoglycemia during 75 g oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT).Methods A retrospective study was conducted in 774.pregnant women who underwent OGTT and delivered in our institution from January 2005 to January 2006.The distribution of glucose levels of the fasting,1 h,2 h and 3 h of the OGTT was analyzed.Plasma glucose level below the 5th percentile and above the 1h percentile was defined as hypoglycemia and those below the 1th percentile as exceeding hypoglycemia.Perinatal outcomes including birth weight,birth height,obstetric complications,the incidence of small for gestational age (SGA)were compared between women with hypoglycemia or exceeding hypoglycemia. Results The birth weight in exceeding hypoglycemia group of fasting glucose was significantly lower than that of the others [(2817±764)g vs(3439±487)g,t=3.344,P<0.01]and the incidence of SGA in this group was also higher(3/7 vs 3.4%,x2=22.78,P<0.01);the proportion of babies with birth weight<3000 g in the same group was higher than the others(5/7 vs 14.73%,P<0.01).The newhorns height was significantly shorter in the hypoglycemia group at 2 h than the normal glycemic group [(49.03±1.68)cm vs(49.48±1.65)cm,P<0.05].Conclusions The plasma glucose 1evel is associated with the newborns'birth weight and height.Women with hypoglycemia during OGTT are more likely to have babies with lower birth weight and height.
