    Abstract:
    32 diabetic and 31 metabolic healthy pregnant women are studied to answer the following questions: Is there a difference in the albumin-excretion rate (AER) during the pregnancy in primary normoalbuminuric type 1 diabetics and non-diabetics? Is there a difference 6 months post partum between the 2 groups? The average age of the diabetics (D) is 28, of the non-diabetics (ND) 27 years; the diabetics suffer from diabetes mellitus 12.5 years. In the 16th week of pregnancy, we find a AER (D vs. ND) of 5.0 vs. 2.37 micrograms/min (not significant [n.s.]), creatinin in serum 0.77 vs. 0.75 mg/dl (p < 0.05), creatinin clearance 92.5 vs. 103.4 ml/min (n.s.). In the 28th and in the 34th to 38th week, there is no significant elevation of the AER compared to the 16th week; but there is a significant elevation in the diabetics vs. the non-diabetics. 6 months post partum, the AER (D vs. ND) are: 6.13 vs. 5.11 micrograms/min (n.s. vs. 16th week and D vs. ND); in each group one person is found with a positive microalbuminuria (MA): 48.2 micrograms/min (D) and 27.4 mg/min (ND). Another diabetic woman shows post partum an isolated higher value of creatinin in serum: 1.5 mg/dl (without MA). This parameter is post partum significant higher (0.97 [D], 0.96 [ND] mg/dl) than in the 16th week of pregnancy (0.77 [D], 0.75 [ND] mg/dl). The creatinin clearance decreases post partum (pp): 92.2 ml/min (pp) vs. 102.0 ml/min (28th week) in the diabetics (n.s.) and 80.6 ml/min (pp) vs. 111.0 ml/min (28th week) in the non-diabetics (p < 0.05). Concerning the studied renal parameters, there is a significant difference of the albumin-excretion rates during the pregnancy between preconceptional normoalbuminuric type 1 diabetic and non-diabetic women, but 6 months post partum, there is no significant difference. The diabetics show a significant increase of the creatinin in urine and in serum and no significant change of the creatinin clearance 6 months post partum.
