Objective:To explore the effect of insulin in combined with Chinese medicine formulae on the serum Mg2+ and visfatin levels, maternal and infant outcome in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:A total of 108 pregnant women with GDM who were admitted in our hospital were included in the study and randomized into the observation group (n=55) and the control group (n=53). The patients in the two groups were given diet control, exercise therapy, and subcutaneous injection of insulin. On this basis, the patients in the observation group were given self-made Chinese medicine formulae, continuously for 2 weeks. The blood sugar level, and serum Mg2+ and visfatin (VF) levels before treatment and before delivery in the two groups were detected. The maternal and infant outcome in the two groups was evaluated.Results:The serum HbA1c, FPG, 1 h PBG, 2 h PBG, and VF levels before delivery in the two groups were significantly reduced when compared with before treatment (P<0.05), while the serum Mg2+ level was significantly elevated when compared with before treatment (P<0.05). The improvement of the above indicators before delivery in the observation group was more significant when compared with the control group (P<0.05). The occurrence rate of cesarean section, premature delivery, gestational hypertension, fetal distress, and macrosomia in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions:Insulin in combined with self-made Chinese medicine formulae can effectively control the blood sugar level in pregnant women with GDM, and improve the maternal and infant outcome.
