alterations in inflammatory state. The aim of this study was to determine whether CT-associated inflammatory alterations persist in pregnancy. STUDY DESIGN: A multi-site prospective study was conducted in 654 pregnant women. Maternal CT was measured using the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire in the 2nd trimester of pregnancy. Women were classified based on the number of moderate to severe abuse/ neglect experiences during childhood. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) concentrations were measured at 12-20’6 weeks and 32-35’6 weeks of pregnancy. Linear mixed effect models were performed with adjustment for obstetric complications, maternal obesity, income, age, race/ethnicity, adult trauma exposure, depressive symptoms and abuse/neglect experience in the reference group. RESULTS: IL-6 concentrations as well as the IL-6/IL-10 ratio significantly increased over the course of gestation (IL-6: F(1,589.7)¼40.9, p<0.0001; IL-10: F(1,569.5)¼12.9, p<0.0001), while IL-10 concentrations did not significantly change from early to late gestation. Maternal CT was associated with average higher gestational IL-6 concentrations (F(3,653.1)¼4.59, p¼0.003) but not with altered average IL-10 concentrations or the IL-6/IL-10 ratio in the adjusted model. Maternal CT was not associated with the magnitude of change in any of the inflammatory outcomes from early to late gestation. Because only IL-6 but not Il-10 increased over the course of gestation, exploratory regression analyses tested whether there was a gestation-specific effect when CT was associated with the IL6/Il10 ratio. These analyses showed that maternal CT was associated with a higher IL6/Il10 ratio in late (b¼0.200.07, p¼0.006) but not in early pregnancy. CONCLUSION: The effects of maternal CT on inflammation persist during pregnancy, with a pro-/anti-inflammatory imbalance being especially pronounced in late gestation.

494 Positivity thresholds of HbA1c assay as a screening test for gestational diabetes mellitus in the first trimester in high-risk populations Allison R. Walker, Amy Valent, Aaron B. Caughey Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR
OBJECTIVE: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with
increased risks of preeclampsia, macrosomia, shoulder dystocia, and irreversible brachial plexus injury. Compared to the conventional second trimester oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), screening with a HbA1C assay in the first trimester with a diagnostic second trimester OGTT has been shown to diagnose more cases of GDM earlier. Our study examined the effect of varied positivity thresholds in high-risk pregnancies. STUDY DESIGN: A decision analysis model was created using TreeAge 2016 software to compare the outcomes of screening with an HbA1C in the first trimester with a diagnostic OGTT in the second trimester, with positivity thresholds ranging from 5.9% to 6.4%. Outcomes examined included neonatal mortality, preeclampsia, preterm delivery, cerebral palsy, macrosomia, permanent brachial plexus injury, cost, and quality adjusted life years (QALY) of the mother and neonate. Probabilities, utilities, and costs were derived from the literature, and a cost-effectiveness threshold was set at $100,000/ QALY. Univariate analyses were used to investigate the impact of screening positivity. RESULTS: When comparing HbA1C positivity thresholds, a screening threshold of 5.9% resulted in 1,551 fewer cases of preeclampsia and 293 fewer preterm deliveries over the current standard of care.

Poster Session III threshold showed comparable neonatal outcomes. Univariate analysis demonstrated that the 5.9% threshold was the cost-effective and preferred threshold in regards to the cost of prenatal care for women with GDM when the additional cost of prenatal care with GDM ranges between $7,100 to $11,000. When treatment costs were more than $11,000 threshold of 6.4% was the most effective, though all all positivity thresholds were cost-effective versus the traditional OGTT and no HbA1C screen. CONCLUSION: Pregnancies at high risk of GDM should receive a firsttrimester HbA1c screen with a threshold for diagnosis of 5.9%.
ajog.org MFMU High-Risk Aspirin (HRA) trial did not report decreased SGA in LDA-treated PGDM pregnancies as a whole, we hypothesized a differential effect according to White classification (WC), with improved birth weight in those PGDM pregnancies with vascular complications at highest risk for SGA. Accordingly we sought to determine whether LDA’s impact on birth weight in PGDM pregnancies differed by WC. STUDY DESIGN: Secondary analysis of PGDM women enrolled in the MFMU HRA trial. Women were categorized according to WC into vascular (R, F, RF) or non-vascular (B, C, D) groups for further analysis. Normalized birth-weight percentiles were converted to Z-scores for comparison. Linear regression was used to model birth weight by WC group, LDA vs. placebo randomization, and the interaction of the two, adjusting for BMI, smoking, race and parity in multivariable analysis. The percentage of SGA and LGA newborns born to LDA vs. placebo-treated women was compared between groups using Pearson’s exact chisquare analysis, and an adjusted model was estimated by logistic regression. RESULTS: All 444 women with PGDM and complete outcome data were included in our analysis (53 vascular, 391 non-vascular). In the adjusted model, LDA was significantly associated with increased birth weight Z-score in non-vascular (p¼0.04) but not vascular gestations, and LDA had a significantly greater effect on birth weight Z-scores in non-vascular as compared with vascular PGDM gestations, p¼0.046, Figure 1. LDA-treated non-vascular PGDM women experienced more LGA births (40.2 vs 26.6%, p¼0.005) than those treated with placebo, Figure 2. There was no difference in SGA with LDA treatment in either group. These findings persisted in the adjusted analysis. CONCLUSION: LDA impacted birth weight differentially according to WC. LDA did not reduce SGA in the overall cohort or either group. The perhaps unexpected increased incidence of LGA infants in LDA-treated non-vascular PGDM gestations is of potential concern given increased neonatal and obstetrical morbidity related to LGA births and the preponderance of nonvascular PGDM.
