The Role of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Gestational Diabetes

Stopped early

Conditions studied: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Pregnancy

In brief

The thought is that Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) plays a key role in the progression to prediabetes/T2DM in those with a history of Gestational Diabetes (GDM). The investigators want to know if having a fatty liver will be connected with more glucose abnormalities (higher fasting/oral glucose tolerance test glucose, more insulin resistance) and that a history of GDM will be common in those with NAFLD.
