Achievement of Target Glycemic Goal with Simple Basal Insulin Regimen in Women with Gestational Diabetes: A Prospective Cohort Study

Table 2

A comparison of the insulin therapy, GWG, and HbA1c at delivery between the groups.

	Diet alone ()	SII group ()	MDI group ()	value (diet vs. SII)	value (diet vs. MDI)	value (SII vs. MDI)
Required insulin dose during pregnancy (U/day)	—			—	—	<0.0001
NPH insulin (U/day)	—			—	—	0.0084
Insulin aspart (U/day)	—	—		—	—	—
GWG (kg)				0.25	1.00	0.32
Pre-OGTT GWG (kg)				0.17	0.70	0.63
OGTT-delivery GWG (kg)				0.99	0.58	0.62
HbA1c before delivery (%)				1.00	1.00	1.00

Data were shown as or number (%). GWG: gestational weight gain; SII: simple insulin injection; MDI: multiple daily insulin injection; GDM: gestational diabetes; BMI: body mass index; OGTT: oral glucose tolerance test.
