Abstract
This study suggests that DM in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy is associated with CAKUT in exposed infants. The association between CAKUT and LGA suggests that poor glycemic control increases risk. Screening and intervention studies in women of childbearing age with DM are warranted to determine whether the risk of chronic kidney disease in children can be modified.
