Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RECENT TRENDS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2016, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: Markers of inflammation and oxidative stress like C Reactive Protein and Malondialdehyde may provide information about risk of developing Type II DM, cardiovascular disease and hypertension in future in patients of Gestational diabetes mellitus. Serum C Reactive Protein and serum MDA level were estimated in sixty patients of gestational diabetes mellitus admitted in obstetrics and gynecology department of G.M.C., Nagpur and sixty normal healthy pregnant controls. The result of the study showed that serum C Reactive Protein and Malondialdehyde levels were increased significantly in the gestational diabetes mellitus group compared to the normal pregnant group. Furthermore when levels of serum C Reactive Protein and Malondialdehyde were correlated with the fasting and post meal blood glucose in gestational diabetes mellitus patients, significant positive correlation was observed.
