Research in this field over the past 30 years has greatly improved our understanding of this disease and formed the basis of improved strategies to improve the health of mothers and their babies. Despite this progress, gestational and preexisting diabetes continue to have significant effects on both short- and long-term health of mothers and their offspring. In this article, I provide an overview of the work that my colleagues and I have done to advance the knowledge base around diabetes and pregnancy in four areas: 1) diabetes risk after gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), including racial and ethnic disparities; 2) the pathophysiology of GDM and subsequent diabetes in Hispanic women; 3) diabetes prevention and \u03b2-cell preservation following GDM; and 4) evidence for multiple potential developmental effects in offspring that vary according to the timing of exposure and severity of maternal diabetes during pregnancy. This research continues the legacy of Norbert Freinkel and the concepts that he contributed to the field of diabetes and pregnancy. With the epidemic of obesity, increasing rates of type 1 and type 2 diabetes in youth, and rising prevalence of GDM across all racial and ethnic groups, we have a lot more work to do to combat this disease to break the vicious cycle.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2337\/dci22-0055","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,22]],"date-time":"2023-02-22T21:11:10Z","timestamp":1677100270000},"page":"482-489","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2337\/ada-journal-policies","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Diabetes in Pregnancy for Mothers and Offspring: Reflection on 30 Years of Clinical and Translational Research: The 2022 Norbert Freinkel Award Lecture"],"prefix":"10.2337","volume":"46","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2786-1268","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anny H.","family":"Xiang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Research & Evaluation, Kaiser Permanente Southern California, Pasadena, CA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1167","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023081816234710200_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1023","DOI":"10.2337\/diab.29.12.1023","article-title":"Banting lecture 1980.
