"Textbook of Diabetes and Pregnancy" ed by M.Hod, L.G.Jovanovic, G.C.Renzo, A.Leiva, O.Langer

This textbook provides a comprehensive, authoritative, international view of these difficult pregnancies and will be invaluable to maternal-fetal medicine specialists, diabetologists, neonatologists, and basic scientists working in the field.

Babies of women with diabetes are nearly five times more likely to be stillborn; are almost three times more likely to die in the first three months; and twice as many are born with major congenital malformations.
The incidence is high - somewhere between 3 and 7 percent of all pregnant women in the USA have diabetes - and rising; the condition is often complicated by other risk-factors such as obesity and heart disease. This major book gives a comprehensive review of the epidemiology, science and clinical management of gestation diabetes.

Fully updated and revised, it contains new chapters on:
-Fetal growth in normal and diabetic pregnancies;
-Genetics;
-Congenital anomalies;
-Exercise;
-Pharmacological management;
-Insulin pump therapy;
-Hypoglycemia;
-The role of ultrasound for timing of delivery;
-Thyroid and pregnancy;
-Fetal origins of adult disease;
-Metabolic syndrome and diabetes following gestational diabetes mellitus;
-Psychological and social aspects.
