metformin and Pregnancy in Diabetes

metformin has been researched along with Pregnancy in Diabetes in 63 studies

Metformin: A biguanide hypoglycemic agent used in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not responding to dietary modification. Metformin improves glycemic control by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p289)
metformin : A member of the class of guanidines that is biguanide the carrying two methyl substituents at position 1.

Trial Outcomes

Mean Infant Fat Mass

Neonatal fat mass measured by skin-fold thickness (anthropometrics).The circumference of the upper limb is the circumference of the upper arm, and the circumference of the lower limb equals the mean of the circumferences measured at the midthigh and calf. The volume of the subcutaneous layer of fat covering each cylinder is estimated by multiplying the length times the circumference times the layer of fat estimated by the skinfold measures. The triceps skinfold measure is used as an estimate of the fat thickness of the limbs, and the subscapular skinfold measure approximates the fat thickness of the trunk. Total body fat is estimated by summing the volumes of fat covering each of the cylinders and multiplying by 0.9 (the density of fat). (NCT02932475)
