Some pregnant women are at risk of developing gestational diabetes for many reasons, including being overweight, insulin resistance, women over 35 years old, women with polycystic ovary syndrome, or for other reasons. In this study, we studied the effect of gestational diabetes on some biochemical variables in the blood and amniotic fluid of pregnant women aged (15-45) years who visited the private Batool Teaching Hospital in Nineveh Governorate. The levels of glucose, total proteins, albumin, urea, creatinine, and some electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, chloride, and calcium were estimated in the serum of the pregnant woman and the amniotic fluid, where the results indicated a significant increase in the levels of glucose, total proteins, albumin, urea, creatinine, chloride, potassium, and sodium in the blood serum and amniotic fluid. There was a significant decrease in calcium levels compared to the control group. |
