Filter by:Since the incidence of maternal obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is on the rise globally, how to improve the intrauterine environment of the offspring and prevent obesity and metabolic diseases from the early life has become a medical research. Since 2012, journals such as Nature and Science have reported that intestinal micro-ecological environments composed of intestinal microbes and their interactions are involved in human body and energy metabolism, and a variety of metabolic diseases including obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The incidence is closely related. Although intestinal microbes have an important impact on human health, the research on intestinal microecology during pregnancy is still in its infancy. The current research is still unclear about the relationship between intestinal microecology and pregnancy outcomes and whether it can be a potential target for regulating maternal metabolism and fetal intrauterine environment. Therefore, this study aims to regulate overweight/obese pregnant women by using prebiotic-containing dairy products to explore the effects of interventions targeting intestinal microbes on glucose and lipid metabolism, insulin resistance and risk of GDM in overweight/obese pregnant women. In order to improve the intrauterine environment and reduce the risk of fetal diseases. It is of great significance and value to improve the quality of the birth population in China and to alleviate the medical economic burden caused by obesity and metabolic diseases.
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), GDM is the first time of gestational impaired glucose tolerance in pregnant women. It is the most common complication disease in women of childbearing age. It is associated with the high risk of adverse health outcomes for both mothers and offsprings and the variety of metabolic disease, including type 2 diabetes, etc. As for the epidemiology data of GDM in China, the prevalence is around 18% based on the criteria from the International Association of Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Groups, IADPSG. Several studies claimed that the diabetes-specific formula improved glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients. However, the effects of medical nutrition therapy combined with the diabetes-specific formula in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are unclear. Objective: This study examines whether medical nutrition therapy combined with Enteral Nutrition Suspension (TFP-DM, Diason 0.75 kcal/ml) in GDM women could improve the glycemic control and the pregnancy outcomes.
