The offspring of women with diabetes during pregnancy are at high risk of developing diabetes before they reach childbearing age, resulting in a vicious cycle of diabetes and pregnancy. New cases of diabetes enter the cycle as a result of the effects of the increasing obesity among our youth. Solutions need to be found to break this cycle by preventing diabetes or delaying its onset until later in life and by normalizing glucose regulation during pregnancy.
孕期患糖尿病的女性的后代在达到生育年龄之前患糖尿病的风险很高，从而导致糖尿病与妊娠的恶性循环。由于我国青少年肥胖率不断上升的影响，新的糖尿病病例进入了这个循环。需要找到解决办法来打破这个循环，即预防糖尿病或推迟其发病至生命后期，并在孕期使血糖调节正常化。
