dc.description.abstract	Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the concentration of plasma blood glucose in Sudanese women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Materials and Methods: Analytical, case-control hospital based study of 60 Sudanese pregnant with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Their mean age was (32.8�7.4 years) compared with 60 pregnant women apparently healthy act as control group; whom their mean age was (29.7�6.0 years). Plasma samples were taken and blood glucose levels were analyzed using colorimetric method. Results: The fasting blood glucose for women with GDM was 114.4�40.3 mg/dl and for women without GDM was 86.9�16.5 mg/dL. But 2hrs post-parandial blood glucose among women with GDM was 189.6�40.2 mg/dL, whereas in women without GDM (control group) was 151.3�27.3 mg/dL. Conclusion: The study confirmed that high blood glucose in Sudanese women with GDM falls within the range of WHO reference values.	en_US
