    Abstract Background Understanding psychosocial environment is important for improving maternal and fetal health outcomes during pregnancy. We aimed to identify the association between gestational blood glucose levels and psychosocial and demographic factors in pregnant women. Methods In the MAASTHI pregnancy cohort in Bengaluru, we assessed depressive symptoms, and social support using validated scales at baseline in first trimester. A 2-hour 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was administered between 24-36 weeks of gestation. We examined the relation between psychosocial factors assessed at baseline and gestational blood glucose levels in second/third trimester using multivariate linear regression and explored association between serum cortisol and gestational blood glucose levels in subgroup samples. Results We found that 9% of pregnant women had depressive symptoms and 14.3% had Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM). Psychosocial factors, including depressive symptoms, have a significant correlation with gestational fasting(β = 0.12, p-value<0.05) and postprandial blood sugar level(β = 0.23, p-value<0.05) and poor social support were found to have a significant association with gestational fasting blood glucose levels(β = 1.45, p-value <0.05) and postprandial blood sugar levels(β = 2.60, p-value <0.05). The sociodemographic factors such as respondent education, occupation, social and economic status were associated with gestational blood sugar after adjusting for potential confounder variables. Conclusion Depressive symptoms and poor social support earlier in pregnancy were significantly associated with increased gestational blood glucose levels. Early detection and recognition of modifiable psychosocial risk factors can reduce glucose intolerance during pregnancy. Evaluating the benefits of screening for psychosocial factors and timely management of gestational diabetes mellitus can be helpful in India.

    Abstract Obesity in children is a major public health concern due to the increased risk of developing adverse health outcomes in their future, and disability in adulthood. The existing systematic reviews on the topic are limited in scope, focusing solely on high-income countries and children aged 4-12 years. Hence, we propose to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to understand, how exposure to authoritative feeding style versus authoritarian, indulgent, uninvolved compare in terms of its association with adiposity in children aged 6 months to 5 years. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines were followed for ensuring the completeness of the protocol. Case-control and cohort studies will be included. Searches will be done using electronic databases viz. PubMed, Ovid EMBASE, PsycINFO and Web of Science. Grey literature will be searched using OpenGrey and Grey Literature Report. We will only include quantitative studies using the developed search strategy. For categorical outcomes, relative risks, odds ratios, and hazard ratios with confidence intervals and for continuous outcomes mean difference with confidence intervals will be used. Risk of Bias In Non-randomized Studies- of Exposure (ROBINS-E) will be used for the evaluation of risk of bias in the individual observational studies. Considering the inherent variability in the observational studies, random effects meta-analysis will also be conducted. If between-study heterogeneity exists, a subgroup analysis based on low and middle-income countries vs. high income countries will be conducted. If the data is not suitable for combining quantitatively, a narrative synthesis will be undertaken. We propose to identify publication bias by using contour-enhanced funnel plots and "trim and fill" method. Outcome reporting bias will be ascertained by comparing the outcomes published in the protocol and the published report. The Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system will ...

    Abstract We review the evidence available worldwide on the various challenges in the screening, management, prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus and diabetes in pregnancy. The use of multiple screening and diagnostic tests prescribed by numerous guidelines is challenging for practitioners. Also, sociocultural, demographic and economic challenges affect the prevention and care. Life-course perspectives need to be adopted, as well as an integrated approach in public health care is essential. Tackling these challenges at each phase of life-course, with development and adherence to the country-specific guidelines by practitioners can decrease the burden of gestational diabetes mellitus and diabetes in pregnancy.

    Abstract Purpose The Maternal Antecedents of Adiposity and Studying the transgenerational role of Hyperglycaemia and Insulin cohort in Bengaluru, South India, aims to understand the transgenerational role of increased circulating glucose levels or hyperglycaemia and other nutrients and psychosocial environment, on the risk of childhood obesity, as an early marker of chronic diseases.Participants Through this paper, we describe the baseline characteristics of the cohort participants and their children, along with plans and challenges. A total of 5694 pregnant women were screened, with 4862 (85.4%) eligible pregnant women recruited at baseline. We assessed anthropometry, Haemoglobin status, Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), dietary practices, depressive symptoms using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale and social support in all women. Follow-up visits involved assessing anthropometry and the health profile of mothers and children.Findings to date Among 4862 eligible participants recruited, 3260 (67%) underwent OGTT, while 2962 participants completed OGTT (90.9%). During the pregnancy, 9.7% of women were obese (>90th percentile of skinfold thickness), and 14.3% had gestational diabetesmellitus. Moreover, 6.2% and 16.8% of women had symptoms suggestive of depression during pregnancy and the immediate postnatal period, respectively. We found that 3.3% of children were small for gestational age, 10.8% were large for gestational age and 9.7% of children were obese at birth.Future plans We have completed recruitment and baseline data collection in 2019, and are conducting annual follow-ups until age 4 of the participant’s children. For delineating causal pathways of childhood obesity, blood aliquots are stored in the biorepository. The study will inform policy formulation and community awareness in the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases and health promotion.
