| Core Tip |
The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) remains the gold standard for assessing the risk of postnatal diabetes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Both the fasting blood glucose and 2-h blood glucose tests could predict postpartum abnormal glycemic status following antenatal GDM. However, each test reflects a different pathophysiology and possible subtype of type 2 diabetes (T2D). If fasting serum insulin measurements are added to an OGTT, additional data generated could distinguish T2D pathophysiology and possible subtypes. Information obtained could be used to match the T2D subtype with relevant prevention programs such as frequent follow-ups, lifestyle modifications, and new treatment protocols. |
