The aim of this book is to provide elaborative information regarding the diagnosis and treatment of gestational diabetes. This book elucidates various aspects of gestational diabetes (GD) by emphasising on its less understood multifactorial mechanisms. Basic approaches are important in understanding this syndrome, i.e., endothelial dysfunction and the function of other placenta cells such as trophoblasts. It will positively help to boost the knowledge-based management of GD for the well-being of the mother and the fetus. Various topics covered in this book lead us to the conclusion that pre-pregnancy and antenatal screening of women is essential. It will not only improve the management and outcome of current pregnancy but will also optimize life-long health and well-being considering the inter-generational consequences.
