Improvement of stress adaptation and insulin resistance in women with GDM by WeChat group management during novel coronavirus pneumonia

ABSTRACT

Aim To evaluate the improvement of glycemic control and stress adaptation in patients with GDM by mobile phone WeChat management during novel coronavirus pneumonia. Methods In this study, 75 women with GDM were included, of whom 35 were included in mobile WeChat group management as the GDM-M group and 40 as the GDM group. Results After mobile WeChat group management for 4 weeks, E and NE were lower. MDA was lower, and SOD was higher. HOMA-IR was lower. E, NE, and cortisol were related to HOMA-IR positively, MDA was positively related to HOMA-IR, and SOD was negatively related to HOMA-IR. E and cortisol were positively related to MDA but negatively related to SOD. Conclusion The stress adaptation disorder and insulin resistance in patients with GDM who have completed mobile WeChat group management can be improved during novel coronavirus pneumonia. Mobile WeChat management played a positive role in improving the insulin resistance of women with GDM under special circumstances, which may reduce the risk of maternal and fetal complications.
