The etiologies of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are similar. Genetic and environmental factors interact to influence the risk of both types of diabetes. We aimed to determine if the polygenetic risk scores (PRS) for GDM risk interacted with lifestyles to influence type 2 diabetes risk in women aged >40 years in a large hospital-based city cohort. The participants with GDM diagnosis without T2DM before pregnancy were considered the case group (n=384) and those without GDM and T2DM as the control (n=33,956) to explore GDM-related genetic variants. The participants with T2DM were the case (n=2550), and the control (n=33,956) was the same as GDM genetic analysis for the interaction analysis of GDM genetic risk with lifestyles to influence T2DM risk. The genetic variants for the GDM risk were selected from a genome-wide association study (GWAS), and their PRS from the best model with gene-gene interactions were generated. GDM was positively associated with age at first pregnancy, body mass index(BMI) at age 20, and education level. A previous GDM diagnosis increased the likelihood of elevated fasting serum glucose concentrations and HbA1c contents by 8.42 and 9.23 times in middle-aged and older women. However, it was not associated with the risk of any other metabolic syndrome components. Breast-feeding(≥1 year) was inversely associated with the T2DM risk in later life. In the genetic variant-genetic variant interaction, the best model with 5-SNPs included PTPRD_rs916855529, GPC6_rs9589710, CDKAL1_rs7754840, PRKAG2 _rs11975504, and PTPRM_rs80164908. The PRS calculated from the 5-SNP model was positively associated with the GDM risk by 3.259(2.17−4.89) times after adjusting GDM-related covariates. The GDM experience interacted with PRS for the T2DM risk. Only in non-GDM women PRS was positively associated with T2DM risk by 1.36-times. However, long breastfeeding did not interact with the PRS for T2DM risk. Among dietary patterns, only a Korean-style balanced diet (KBD) showed an interaction with PRS for the T2DM risk. Participants with a low-PRS had the lowest serum glucose concentrations in the high KBD intake but not low KBD intake. In conclusion, participants with a high PRS for GDM risk are positively associated with T2DM risk, and breastfeeding for ≥1 year and consuming KBD offset the PRS for GDM risk to influence T2DM risk in middle-aged and older.

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is a very common and important disease occurring during pregnancy and has detrimental effect on both the mother and the baby. The mother is at increased risk of developing obstetric complications like prolonged labour, prone to develop type 2 diabetes in future and the baby is born with overweight, cause of childhood obesity and later life development of type 2 diabetes. A short review and current concept of GDM is discussed. Key words: GDM, Type 2 diabetes, Obesity, Macrosomia, Complications   doi: 10.3329/bjpath.v24i1.2877 Bangladesh J Pathol 24 (1) : 16-20

Background. Women with previous gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have evidence of postpartum β-cell dysfunction, which increases their risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2DM) later in life. Elevated levels of circulating cell-free preproinsulin (INS) DNA correlate with dying β-cells in both mice and humans. The aim of this study was to determine if cell-free circulating INS DNA levels are higher in women with previous GDM who develop T2DM. Methods. We used droplet digital (dd) PCR to measure the levels of cell-free circulating methylated and unmethylated INS DNA in plasma from 97 women with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), 12 weeks following an index GDM pregnancy. Women were assessed for up to 10 years for the development of T2DM. Results. In the follow-up period, 22% of women developed T2DM. Compared with NGT women, total cell-free INS DNA levels were significantly higher in women who developed T2DM (P=0.02). There was no difference in cell-free circulating unmethylated and methylated INS DNA levels between NGT women and women who developed T2DM (P=0.09 and P=0.07, respectively). Conclusions. In women with a previous index GDM pregnancy, postpartum levels of cell-free circulating INS DNA are significantly higher in those women who later developed T2DM.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a polygenic metabolic disease described by hyperglycemia, which is caused by insulin resistance or reduced insulin secretion. Interaction between various genetic variants and environmental factors triggers T2DM. The main aim of this study was to find the risk associated with genetic variant (rs5210) of KCNJ11gene in the development of T2D in Indian Population. A total number of 300 cases of T2D and 100 control samples were studied to find the polymorphism in KCNJ11 through PCR-RFLP. The genotype and allele frequencies in T2DM cases were significantly different from the control population. We found a significant association of KCNJ11 (rs5210) gene polymorphism with T2DM in North Indian patients indicating the role of this variant in developing risk for T2DM.

Background In patients with gestational diabetes, breastfeeding decreases the lifetime risk of Type 2 diabetes by half. Lactation consultation has been shown to increase breastfeeding rates in the general population but has not been assessed in a gestational diabetes population. Research Aims To determine if (1) a postpartum International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) consultation during delivery hospitalization improved inclusive (any) or exclusive breastfeeding rates at hospital discharge and 3 months postpartum in participants with GDM; and if (2) obstetrical providers’ acknowledgement of maternal feeding preference affected the rates of IBCLC consultation for patients. Methods This was a retrospective, comparative, secondary analysis of a prospective cohort ( N = 517) study of women gestational diabetes. Participants who received a IBCLC consultation ( n = 386; 74.5%) were compared to those who did not ( n = 131; 25.5%). Baseline demographics, antepartum characteristics, neonatal information, mode of infant feeding at hospital discharge and 3 months postpartum, and IBCLC consultation during postpartum hospitalization were measured. Results After adjusting for baseline differences, participants who received an IBCLC consultation were more likely to report any breastfeeding at postpartum discharge (aOR 4.87; 95% CI [2.67, 8.86]) and at 3 months postpartum (aOR 5.39; 95% CI [2.61, 11.16]) compared to participants who did not. However, there was no difference in exclusive breastfeeding rates between those who did and did not receive IBCLC consultation. Conclusion Inpatient IBCLC consultation during the immediate postpartum period was associated with improved rates of any breastfeeding in participants with GDM.
