Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to compare hormone levels and milk composition in women with and without gestational diabetes through postpartum human milk and blood samples.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pregnant women with GDM who received medical nutrition therapy and healthy controls were evaluated on postpartum days 14 and 30. Human milk and blood samples, as well as 3-day food consumption records, were collected. Levels of insulin, adiponectin, leptin, ghrelin, chemerin, and dermcidin in blood and milk were measured and compared with macronutrient contents of milk.
