This article reviewed the hot spots in the research field of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM ) and pregnancy with diabetes mellitus ,including progresses on the risk factors for GDM and the long term effects of diabetes during pregnancy on mothers and offspring. This was followed by a body of evidences on the clinical benefits of improved glycemic control during pregnancy ,current therapeutic strategy using insulin as the golden standard as well as the potential advantage of insulin determir due to its unique pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic (PK‐PD ) profile in this therapeutic area. Finally ,the authors summarized data from clinical trials on the usage of insulin detemir in pregnancy and in particular went over the designs and results of two randomly controlled trials investigating the efficacy and safety of insulin detemir in pregnancy patients with T1DM.
