Özet

This study aims to examine the association between glucose tolerance abnormality and depression and anxiety in pregnant women. One hundred and sixty-seven women with gestational ages ranging from 24 to 28 weeks were screened with the 50 g oral glucose challenge test. All participants were assessed with the Beck Depression Inventory and the Beck Anxiety Inventory. The rate of depression was higher in women with abnormal glucose results (44.3%) than in women with normal glucose results (21.7%). Similarly, depressed women had higher glucose levels than non-depressed women. Findings suggest that depression and anxiety may be associated with glucose tolerance abnormality in pregnant women.
