Higher rates of large‐for‐gestational‐age newborns mediated by excess maternal weight gain in pregnancies with Type 1 diabetes and use of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion vs multiple dose insulin injection

Abstract

There was no advantage of CSII with respect to glycaemic control and neonatal outcomes. The rate of LGA neonates was higher in the CSII group, possibly mediated by excess maternal weight gain, which was more frequent than in women treated with MDI.
