Accuracy of estimated fetal weight using ultrasound at term in pregnant women diagnosed with gestational and pre-gestational diabetes at Groote Schuur Hospital
… of multiple perinatal complications, including macrosomia. There is an increased risk of perinatal complications with a fetal weight at birth of more than 4 000 g, especially if macrosomia occurs in the context of diabetes. In order to predict fetal macrosomia, fetal weight estimation remains an …

The effects of insulin and the insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) on the proliferation and differentiation of cells isolated from placentae of non-diabetic and diabetic subjects
… include an apparent hyperplacentation and fetal macrosomia and trophoblastic morphofunctional pathology, which may contribute to increased morbidity and mortality rates. Reports hâve indicated that fetal and placental macrosomia does not always resuit from maternai hyperglycemia and that insulin …

EFFETTI CLINICI E PLACENTARI DELL IPERGLICEMIA IN GRAVIDANZA IN DONNE CON DIABETE MELLITO
… essere implicata nella maggiore frequenza di macrosomia/LGA registrata nei neonati da madri con DMT1 (50%). Una simile tendenza è stata trovata quando, indipendentemente dalla diagnosi, le pazienti sono state divise in base alla presenza o meno della macrosomia: nelle placente delle donne con …

Prevalence of overweight and obesity in children aged 5 to 6 years exposed to Gestational Diabetes Mellitus complicated pregnancies in the Western Cape, South Africa
… children from GDM complicated pregnancies and macrosomia at birth in the same cohort. The secondary aim was to identify risk factors associated with overweight and obesity in these 5 and 6-year-old children. Outcome measures: The main outcome was the prevalence of overweight and obesity in …

Gestational Diabetes: the Role of Prenatal Care On Excessive Fetal Growth Outcomes and Postpartum Screening For Diabetes Among South Carolina Women (2004-2007)
… on examining the impact of prenatal care on LGA/Macrosomia outcomes by gestational diabetes status among a retrospective cohort of singleton live births to South Carolina women (2004-2007). Results indicate women with GDM were more likely to have an LGA (90th) infant compared to women without …

Investigation of the underlying, modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for gestational diabetes among women living in Cape Town
… These complications include preeclampsia, macrosomia, preterm birth and risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life. Understanding the risk factors for GDM is important in order to come up with intervention programs. This study aimed to determine the underlying modifiable, …

Large offspring syndrome, a bovine model for the human loss-of-imprinting overgrowth syndrome Beckwith-Wiedemann
… syndrome primarily characterized by macrosomia, macroglossia, and abdominal wall defects. BWS has been associated with misregulation of two clusters of imprinted genes. Children conceived with the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) appear to have an increased incidence of …

Maternal Cardiac Autonomic Function and Fetal Behaviour in Hypertensive and Obese Pregnancies

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus- Future risk for mother and child
… is also increased. GDM increases the risk for macrosomia and caesarean delivery. However, long term prognosis and eventual future risks for children born to mothers with a previous GDM are less well studied. In this thesis women who had GDM during 1995-2010 and their children were investigated. …

The Timing and Composition of Gestational Weight Gain and the Impact on Neonatal Anthropometry
… are associated with increased risk of foetal macrosomia and recent studies have suggested a role of the timing and composition of GWG beyond that of BMI. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of timing and composition of GWG on neonatal anthropometric outcomes in a prospective …

A weighty issue: The implications of an ultrasound prediction of a large baby in pregnancy
Ultrasound scans are an increasingly normalised part of pregnancy in Aotearoa New Zealand. In the third trimester, fetal measurements and weight estimations are undertaken at all scans, regardless of clinical indication. Even though these size predictions can be inaccurate, they heavily influence …
