About this trial
In this study, the investigators hypothesize that echocardiographic pathologies observed in infants of diabetic mothers are associated with elevated serum phoenixin-14 levels.

Treatments tested in this trial
echocardiographic evaluation and blood phoenixin-14 level
Diagnostic testFor participants who provide consent, blood samples will be collected at 6 hours postpartum. Additionally, infants included in the study will undergo an echocardiographic evaluation by a pediatric cardiologist between postnatal days 3 and 5.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Correlation between serum phoenixin-14 levels and echocardiographic pathologies in infants of diabetic mothers.
Measurement Variables: * Serum phoenixin-14 concentration (pg/mL). * Presence of pathologies related to echocardiographic intraventricular septum thickness Analysis Metric: Assessment of the relationship between serum phoenixin-14 levels and echocardiographic intraventricular septum thickness. Data Collection Method: Serum phoenixin-14 levels will be measured using a specific immunoassay, and echocardiographic evaluations will be conducted by a pediatric cardiologist.
