Altered Doppler Velocimetry of Fetal Middle Cerebral Artery in Singleton Pregnancies Complicated by Mild Well-Controlled Gestational Diabetes
© 2022 S. Karger AG, Basel..
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the present study was to evaluate fetal umbilical artery (UA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) blood flow in patients with gestational diabetes (GD), in order to determine whether minimal anomalies of glucose metabolism may influence fetal placental function.
METHODS: UA and MCA flows were prospectively measured by transabdominal ultrasound in singleton pregnancies between 34 and 37 weeks of gestation.
RESULTS: The study included 35 women with GD and 217 nondiabetic patients. Middle cerebral pulsatility index (PI) was significantly higher in the GD group (mean MCA-PI = 1.82 ± 0.27 vs. 1.71 ± 0.26; p < 0.02). Likewise, MCA peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) was higher in the GD group compared to the non-GD group, though the difference was not significant (mean of MCA-PSV = 47.14 ± 8.45 vs. 47.09 ± 11.21; p = 0.98). UA-PI resulted higher in the non-GD group without significant differences (mean of UA-PI = 0.88 ± 0.14 vs. 0.86 ± 0.15; p = 0.32).
CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows that even in cases of minimal metabolic derangements, GD is characterized by a significant variation in fetal Doppler velocimetry, particularly in the brain.
