Gestational Diabetes In Rural Women of Jammu

Based on demographic projections made by United Nations Population Division for the year 2025, WHO issued estimates of adults with diabetes in all countries and reported that there will be more women with diabetes than men and we may anticipate a considerable increase in the burden of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) especially in less prosperous countries.(1) During last two decades there has been a marked increase in the prevalence of diabetes among urban Indian.(2) Similar, though slower trend is also shown amongst peri-urban and rural population due to changes in life style, ageing and low birth weight leading to diabetes during adulthood.(3) This epidemic has been triggered by social and economic development and urbanization associated with general improvement in nutrition, longevity and reduced physical activity. Present study was taken up to study the influence of the socio-economic status of the women and gestational diabetes in a rural area.
