The secondary research questions of MiTy are: Among pregnant women with type 2 diabetes mellitus, does the addition of metformin to a standard regimen of insulin increase or decrease the risk of: LGA infants , cord blood gases
The sample size for MiTy is 500 pregnant women, to be recruited from 25 centres across Canada.
