Glycosylated hemoglobin levels were obtained in 133 diabetic pregnancies. Nongestational diabetic mothers delivered of infants with major congenital anomalies had significantly higher glycosylated hemoglobin levels than the remaining nongestational diabetic mothers (P less than .001). The higher a mother's glycosylated hemoglobin level, the higher her risk of having a severely affected infant was. The positive predictive value for a nongestational diabetic mother having an infant with severe congenital anomalies was 26% if the glycosylated hemoglobin level was greater than or equal to 11%, 40% if the level was greater than or equal to 12%, and 56% if the level greater than or equal to 13%. However, high glycosylated hemoglobin levels in insulin-requiring gestational diabetic mothers were not predictive of major congenital anomalies.

D003922	Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1	A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.

D006442	Glycated Hemoglobin	Products of non-enzymatic reactions between GLUCOSE and HEMOGLOBIN (occurring as a minor fraction of the hemoglobin of ERYTHROCYTES.) It generally refers to glycated HEMOGLOBIN A. Hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) is hemoglobin A with GLYCATION on a terminal VALINE of the beta chain. Glycated hemoglobin A is used as an index of the average blood sugar level over a lifetime of erythrocytes.
