First seen Apr 01, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looks at whether fat in the liver, found during routine pregnancy scans, can help predict early blood sugar problems in women who had gestational diabetes. About 189 women will be followed for 6-12 weeks after giving birth. The goal is to see if liver fat is linked to insulin resistance, which could lead to closer monitoring and lifestyle changes to prevent type 2 diabetes.
