Abstract

We have performed this study with the purpose of determining the relationships between various types of maternal diabetes, glycemic control and the prevalence of various types of cardiovascular complications in neonates and comparing these findings to infants of non-diabetic mothers. A retrospective case-control study was performed between the years 2019-2022 on two groups of newborns at … hospital, IRAQ. Sixty-one mothers were included in this study. The case group consisted of infants born to mothers with diabetes, and the control group was made up of infants born to non-diabetic mothers. Diagnostic criteria for diabetes have been made according to WHO criteria and diagnosis of GDM were based on the recommendations of the Second International Conference (1,2). Both groups were selected using an easy and simple sampling method. Inclusion criteria for the case group were: infants born to mothers with diabetes, term infants, and mothers who received prenatal care.
