Abstract
Background and aimsTo explore association of serum hyaluronidase 1 (HYAL1) level in early pregnancy with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and to examine interactive effects of HYAL1 with ceramides species on GDM risk. Materials and methodsWe conducted a 1:1 matched case-control study (n = 414) of pregnant women from 2010 to 2012 in Tianjin, China. Blood samples were collected at the first antenatal care visit (at a median of 10th gestational weeks). Binary conditional logistic regression and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis were used to examine full-range risk association between HYAL1 and GDM. Additive interactions and multiplicative interactions were employed to test interactive effects of HYAL1 with ceramides species on GDM risk. ResultsLn HYAL1 was linearly associated with GDM risk and the adjusted OR of HYAL1 ≥ vs. < its median for GDM was significant (1.65, 95%CI: 1.08–2.52). High HYAL1 markedly enhanced the ORs of high ceramide 18:0 for GDM from 2.31 (1.06–5.01) to 6.74 (2.85–16.0), and low ceramide 24:0 from 3.08 (1.33–7.11) to 8.15 (3.03–21.9), with significant additive interactions. ConclusionsHigh HYAL1 in early pregnancy may increase the risk of GDM in Chinese women, possibly via enhancing the effects of high ceramide 18:0 and low ceramide 24:0 on GDM risk.
