The Effect of low Serum Vitamin D Levels on the Prevalence of Preeclampsia in Pregnant Women
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
As the most common metabolic disorder during pregnancy, diabetes causes chronic resistance to insulin through secreting extra volumes of insulin. Diabetes is a chronic disease which develops when pancreas does not produce insulin or the body does not use insulin effectively, a problem which is often due to cardiovascular complications. The main types of diabetes include type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Due to physiological and hormone changes (lactobenic-progesterone-estrogen and cortisol) during pregnancy, the mother's body becomes susceptible to diabetes mellitus , which is a type of diabetes intolerant to varying severity of carbohydrates developing primarily during pregnancy.Results of the Literature review were exported to Endnote. Prior to the formal screening process, a calibration exercise was undertaken to pilot and refine the screening. Formal screening process of titles and abstracts were conducted by two researchers according to the eligibility criteria, and consensus method was used for solving controversies among the two researchers. The full text was obtained for all titles that met the inclusion criteria.According to the results of the present study, vitamin D metabolism is related to glucose levels, but low levels of vitamin D may interfere with glucose tolerance and diabetes or they might be related to the duration of the disease, an important goal that cannot be closed with certainty with cross-sectional studies/
