Background and Purpose: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the most common complications of pregnancy and its prevalence worldwide is increasing along with enhancing type two of diabetes. Gestational diabetes can cause various complications for the mother and fetus. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 12 weeks of combined training on the levels of some adipokines in women with gestational diabetes.
Method:
For this purpose, among pregnant women aged 25 to 35 years with gestational diabetes and gestational age of 23 to 24 weeks, 28 people were voluntarily selected to conduct the research and randomly divided into two groups, the experimental group (14 people). and control (14 people). The combined exercise training program was as follows in 12 weeks, three training sessions each week. Measurements and blood tests were performed 24 hours before the start of training and 24 hours after the last training session. In order to analyze the data, ANOVA test with repeated measures (repeated measure ANOVA) was used. The significance level was considered as p≤0.05 and the data was analyzed using SPSS version 23 software.
Results: 12 weeks of combined exercise training caused a significant increase in the hormone adiponectin (P=0.001) and a significant decrease in the hormone visfatin (P=0.001) in the experimental group.
Conclusion: The results of the above research showed that women with gestational diabetes can benefit from many Advantages, including the improvement of adiponectin and visfatin secreted from fat tissue, with correct and principled exercise training.

This disease is the most common metabolic disorder in this period. This study was aimed at determining the associated factors with prevalence of in pregnant women in the Yazd city during a specific period of time.
Materials and Methods: This is an analytical descriptive study which has been done by a cross-sectional design. Participants were pregnant women who had been referring to health care centers of Yazd city between April 2012to October2012. 400 pregnant women were selected by cluster random sampling method. Data were collected by a data collection form based on family files and also were analyzed by using SPSS19 Statistical Software. Chi-square, T- test and logistic regression test were used with significant level of 0.05.
Results: The prevalence of GDM in this study was 12% (48 people).Mean age of the patients (29.79±5.86) was significantly higher than normal subjects (26.11±5.11).Diabetic mothers had more number of pregnancies, shorter height, mean weight and body mass indices (BMI)higher than non-diabetic mothers. Significant relationships were found between age, maternal education level, BMI, birth order, family history of diabetes and history of congenital malformations by GDM. (P <0/05).
Conclusions: Due to the higher prevalence rate of GDM in Yazd comparing with other cities performing a general screening study that includes more pregnant women is highly recommended inthis city.
