Pancreatic-derived factor predicts remission of impaired glucose tolerance women with history of gestational diabetes

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Prospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Circulating PANDER concentration is inversely associated with the remission of IGT in women with GMD history at one year postpartum.

Study context

Population
Women with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), enrolled 4–12 weeks postpartum, receiving lifestyle intervention
Participants
113 women
Exposure
High and very high vs low PANDER level
Outcome
Remission of IGT (return to normal glucose tolerance)
Follow-up
One year postpartum

Main finding

Returned to normal glucose tolerance (all subjects)

48.7%

55/113

AUC of PANDER level for remission of IGT

0.702

95% CI 0.595–0.809

AUC of PANDER combined with clinical information

0.812

95% CI 0.725–0.899P < 0.001

Observational data: associations, not effects.
