Anthropometric prediction of insulin-like growth factor-I and its binding protein-1
among Egyptian Infants of Diabetic mothers
Sahar A El-Masry
National Research Centre, Egypt
Background & Objectives
: Diabetes is recognized as a particular threat to pregnant women and their neonates. Maternal
concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and its binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) have influence on fetal growth.
Objective
: To estimate the association between the anthropometric measurements; which evaluate intrauterine fetal growth; and
biochemical growth factors; IGF-I and IGBP-1 among IDMs, in attempt to predict them.
Conclusion
: Good control of diabetes during pregnancy is essential to improve fetal growth. There is an opposing effect of cord
blood IGF-I and IGFBP-1 on anthropometric measurements. IGF-I and IGFBP-1could be predicted from anthropometry.
