Sažetak
This study was carried out to examine the incidence of diabetes and the factors associated with this in women five years after they were examined for gestational diabetes (GDM). Women (N=90) whose GDM status was determined (WHO criteria) delivered live babies. Of these, 90 women available for follow-up after 5 years underwent a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test and detailed anthropometry. Diabetes was determined using WHO criteria, and Metabolic Syndrome (MS) using IDF criteria recommended for Europian women. The incidence of diabetes (7.8% ) and Metabolic Syndrome (42%). Women with MS had larger waist-to-hip ratio, skinfolds, body mass index and higer FPG (fasting plasma glucose). Our findings suggest high diabetes and cardiovascular risks in women with previous GDM. Follow-up of these women after delivery would provide opportunities to modify adverse lifestyle factors.
