NTDIP: Northern Territory Diabetes in Pregnancy Project

妊娠期糖尿病在出生前暴露于高糖水平，这可能导致儿童在以后的生活中患上肥胖症，糖尿病和心血管疾病。这项研究旨在优化北领地妊娠期糖尿病的诊断和管理，从而在生命过程中尽早针对慢性疾病的原因，我们认为这是缩小土著和非土著澳大利亚人之间预期寿命差距的关键一步。

Diabetes in pregnancy provides exposure to high sugar levels before birth which can result in the child developing obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease later in life. This study aims to optimise the diagnosis and management of diabetes in pregnancy in the Northern Territory, thereby targeting the causes of chronic diseases from as early as possible in the life course, which we believe is a key step in closing the gap in life expectancy between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.
