Gestational Diabetes Mellitus is becoming an increasingly prevalent disease as obesity

and other chronic diseases are on the rise. It requires careful and informed clinical
management as the care received during pregnancy affects not only perinatal health
but the risk of developing type 2 diabetes even decades into the future, in both the
mother and the child.From epidemiology and pathophysiology to diagnosis and
management, covering recent breakthroughs in research and up-to-date developments
in clinical practice, Gestational Diabetes During and After Pregnancy offers the reader a
comprehensive and current look at Gestational Diabetes. Public Health issues are also
addressed, with discussions on screening, control programs and policy. Also included
are the results of the landmark Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome (HAPO)
study.Anyone involved in the research, public health or clinical aspects of Gestational
Diabetes will find this volume a valuable aid in consolidating all recent developments
regarding this disease.
