Abstract

1. Abstract
1.1. Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GMD) is one of the most common medical complications of pregnancy. The aim of this study was to analyze the presents of GDM in all pregnant women in our town for one year period. We analyze risk for trisomy 21 and other aneuploidy in pregnant women with GDM compared to pregnant women without GDM.
1.2. Methods: We conducted a one year follow up study on all pregnant women with and without GDM in Clinical Hospital Bitola from January 2020 to January 2021 year. The pregnant women range in age from 20 to 43 years. We separated the patients in two groups.
1.3. Results: Over a one year period, screening was carried out in 175 pregnancies. Median maternal age was 32.2 years. The prevalence of GDM was 17%. GDM is present in all ages of the participants. We conclude that predisposition to GDM is higher in advanced maternal age. Significant increased free β-hCG concentration, increased maternal weight, increased Crown – rump length and decreased nuchal translucency has been reported in pregnant women that were diagnosed with GDM.
1.4. Conclusion: GDM is the most common medical and metabolic complication seen in pregnancy. Women who are at high risk of developing GDM should be appropriately screened to reduce maternal and fetal morbidity. Early diagnosis of ‘diabetes in pregnancy’ enables prompt evaluation and treatment. It is clear that GDM does appear to carry increased risk of perinatal complications to both the parturient and her fetus/neonate
