| Abstract |
A history of gastric bypass surgery can influence the results of the OGTT recommended during pregnancy. Therefore, we compared OGTT glucose kinetics and pregnancy outcome between pregnant gastric bypass patients and BMI-matched, lean and obese controls. Medical records were used to collect data on glucose measurements during the 2 h 75 g OGTT as well as on pregnancy and fetal outcome for 304 women (n = 76 per group, matched for age and date of delivery). Women after bariatric surgery had lower fasting glucose levels compared with lean, obese and BMI-matched controls, and showed altered postprandial glucose kinetics, including a rise at 60 min followed by hypoglycaemia with serum glucose of <3.34 mmol/l (which occurred in 54.8%). Moreover, their risk of pre-eclampsia or gestational hypertension was reduced, with an increased risk of delivering small for gestational age infants. Alternative strategies to accurately define impaired glucose metabolism in pregnancies after bariatric surgery should be explored. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 September 2017.
All research outputs
#3,265,312
of 22,896,955 outputs
Outputs from Diabetologia
#1,526
of 5,040 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#58,495
of 316,298 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Diabetologia
#38
of 75 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,896,955 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 85th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,040 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 22.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 69% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 316,298 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 75 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
