Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinical effects of Deltamine in combination with insulin aspart on the levels of cystatin C (Cys C) and homocystein (HCY) in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods Ninety cases of GDM meeting the inclusion criteria were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into control group (n = 43) and observation group (n = 47). Besides conventional treatments, the control group was treated with insulin aspart, and the observation group was treated with Deltamine in combination with insulin aspart. Then, the glucose-related indices, serum levels of Cys C and HCY and maternal and neonatal outcomes of the 2 groups were observed and compared. Results Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 1-hour plasma glucose (1 hPG), 2-hour plasma glucose (2 hPG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) significantly decreased in both groups after treatments (P < 0.05). In comparison with the control group, FPG, 1 hPG, 2 hPG and HbA1c of the observation group were statistically lower (P < 0.05). Serum levels of Cys C and HCY significantly decreased in both groups after treatment (P < 0.05). After treatment, serum levels of Cys C and HCY of the observation group were statistically lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of pregnancy-induced hypertension, hydramnion, premature birth and caesarean in the observation group was 10.6%, 12.8%, 0.0% and 14.9% respectively, which was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of icterus neonatorum and giant baby in the observation was 10.6% and 8.5% respectively, which was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusions Treatments of Deltamine in combination with insulin aspart could effectively control blood glucose level, decrease serum levels of Cys C and HCY in patients with GDM and improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.
