Abstract

Background: Elevated serum Ferritin concentration is associated with insulin resistance and diabetes. Recently it has also been described in Gestational Diabetes mellitus (GDM). Objective: A prospective study was done to determine whether there was a relationship between serum Ferritin concentration in early pregnancy and the risk of GDM. Materials and Methods: A study was performed on 1, 384 pregnant women with gestational age of 12-16 weeks. A blood sample was obtained for measurement of Ferritin in the first trimester. Diagnosis of GDM was done by 75 gr oral glucose tolerance test between 24-28 wk. Results: Women who developed GDM had a higher concentration of serum Ferritin than women who did not develop GDM (p=0. 01). A Ferritin concentration of 45 ng/ml was calculated to be the 75th percentile for healthy pregnant women. Considering this level 32% in the GDM group and 25. 2%of normal subjects exhibited high Ferritin levels (p=0. 01). The risk of GDM with these high levels of Ferritin was 1. 4-fold higher than that for subjects with lower concentrations. The Odds Ratio was 1. 4 (95% CI= 1-1. 87) (p=0. 01). After adjusted for age Odds Ratio was 1. 38 (95% CI=1. 02-1. 86) (p=0. 03) and after adjustment for pre-pregnancy Body Mass index, the adjusted odds ratio was 1. 31 (CI= 0. 96-1. 79) (p=0. 08). After multivariable adjustment (age and body mass index), the adjusted odds ratio was 1. 3 (0. 95-1. 8) (p=0. 09). Conclusion: High serum Ferritin can be regarded as a significant risk factor for the development of Gestational Diabetes.
