Abstract: (12455 Views)
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder in pregnancy. Low levels of sex hormone–binding globulin level (SHBG) is associated with increased insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. The aim of this study was comparison of SHBG levels between gestational diabetic pregnant women and normal ones.
Methods: Serum SHBG concentration were measured in 38 women with gestational diabetes and in 143 women with normal pregnancy. The levels of Insulin, C-peptide and testosterone were measured and Insulin resistance was estimated via HOMA Index. Insulin sensitivity was estimated via QUIKE Index.
Results: Serum SHBG concentrations was significantly lower in the diabetic group (P=0.015). In a logistic regression model after adjustment of age, body mass index (BMI) and number of gravid, lower than 25 percentile of SHBG was independently effective in prediction of gestational diabetes mellitus.
Conclusion: SHBG concentrations are lower in gestational diabetic pregnant women and low levels account as a predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus.
