文摘目的探讨中晚期孕妇血清NOV/CCN3水平变化,并分析其与妊娠期糖尿病(gestational diabetes mellitus,GDM)及妊娠结局的关系。方法根据口服葡萄糖耐量实验(oral glucose tolerance test,OGTT)结果,将252例妊娠女性分为GDM组与对照组。根据妊娠前体质量指数水平及妊娠结局情况将GDM组进行分组。收集所有研究对象临床资料,比较组间一般资料、生化指标及NOV/CCN3水平的差异。结果GDM组血清NOV/CCN3水平高于对照组(P<0.001)。Spearman相关分析结果表明血清NOV/CCN3与妊娠前体质量、妊娠前体质量指数、胰岛素抵抗指数、总胆固醇呈正相关,与胰岛素敏感指数呈负相关(P<0.05)。logistic回归分析结果表明,NOV/CCN3是GDM发生的独立危险因素[OR=1.097,95%CI(1.020~1.179),P=0.013],且是GDM患者发生不良妊娠结局的独立危险因素[OR=1.032,95%CI(1.020~1.045),P<0.001],ROC分析结果显示曲线下面积(area under the curve,AUC)分别为0.840、0.784(P<0.05)。结论中晚期孕妇血清NOV/CCN3水平与肥胖、胰岛素抵抗及糖脂代谢相关,参与GDM发生发展,为评估中晚期孕妇发生GDM及GDM患者妊娠结局提供新的思路。
