ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 2 Abstract: 250 Objectives: Lactation may influence future progression to type 2 diabetes after gestational
T
diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, biomarkers associated with progression to glucose
RI P
intolerance have not been examined in relation to lactation intensity among postpartum women with previous GDM. This study investigates whether higher lactation intensity is
SC
related to more favorable blood lipids, lipoproteins and adipokines after GDM pregnancy
NU
independent of obesity, socio-demographics and insulin resistance. Methods: The Study of Women, Infant Feeding, and Type 2 Diabetes (SWIFT) is a prospective
MA
cohort study that recruited 1,035 women diagnosed with GDM by the 3-hour 100 g oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) after delivery of a live birth in 2008-2011. Research staff
ED
conducted 2-hour 75 gram OGTTs, and assessed lactation intensity, anthropometry, lifestyle
PT
behaviors and socio-demographics at 6-9 weeks postpartum (baseline). We assayed fasting plasma lipids, lipoproteins, non-esterified free fatty acids, leptin and adiponectin from stored
CE
samples obtained at 6-9 weeks postpartum for in 1,007 of the SWIFT participants who were free
AC
of diabetes at baseline. Mean biomarker concentrations were compared among lactation intensity groups using multivariable linear regression models. Results: Increasing lactation intensity showed graded monotonic associations with fully adjusted mean biomarkers: 5-8% higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol), 20-28% lower fasting triglycerides, 15-21% lower leptin (all trend P-values6 to ≤ 17 ounces per 24 hours) or inconsistent feeding method, 4) mostly formula feeding >17 ounces per 24 hours, and 5) exclusive formula feeding.(12) The mixed/inconsistent group included women who had transitioned to higher formula supplementation between the 4-5 weeks postpartum screening interview and the 6-9 weeks postpartum exam. Trained research assistants asked women to recall the duration of fasting and breastfeeding during the fasting period prior to the OGTT, recorded breastfeeding episodes during the 2-hour 75 g OGTT as described previously,(19) and measured weight, height and

Biochemical Assays
CE
For this analysis, we utilized fasting plasma collected at 6-9 weeks postpartum
AC
(baseline in-person exam) to measure lipids, lipoproteins, non-esterified FFA and adipokines (adiponectin, leptin). Assays were performed on thawed frozen fasting plasma stored at -70º C from the SWIFT baseline. The specimens were shipped to the University of Washington, Northwest Lipid Metabolism and Diabetes Research Laboratory and analyzed for insulin, glucose, lipids, lipoproteins, non-esterified FFA, leptin and adiponectin. Plasma glucose was analyzed enzymatically using Roche reagent on a Roche Modular P autoanalyzer. The method is based on the combined catalytic activities of hexokinase and gluco se-6phosphate-dehydrogenase. Total immunoreactive insulin (μU/mL) was assayed using a double-antibody radioimmunoassay with high precision. The assay is a 48-hour

Measurements of total cholesterol in plasma and cholesterol in the lipoprotein fractions

Reference Methods. Determination of HDL-cholesterol was performed after precipitation of

apo B-containing particles by dextran sulfate Mg2+. LDL-cholesterol was calculated by the Friedewald equation. The Friedewald equation for the estimation of LDL-cholesterol is
