Group MedDRA preferred term Basal insulin at organogenesis Expert 1 classification Expert 2 (blinded post hoc) classification
Pregnant at randomization
Hip dysplasia IDet Major (reclassified to minor due to FU information) Not a congenital malformation (developmental disorder that disappears)
Cleft lip NPH Major Major
 IDet (n = 79) Meningomyelocele NPH Major Major
Atrial septal defect Hemangioma congenital NPH Both minor Both major
Hemangioma congenital (diagnosed after the EOT) NPH Minor Not a congenital malformation
Dandy–Walker syndrome Pulmonary hypoplasia NPH Both major Both major
Polydactyly Insulin glargine Minor Minor
 NPH (n = 83) Cardiac hypertrophy Patent ductus arteriosus NPH Both minor Not congenital malformations (FU: patent ductus arteriosus was minor and did not require surgery)
Atrial septal defect NPH Minor Not a congenital malformation (FU: atrial septal defect spontaneously closed)
Pregnant after randomization

*

This malformation from a woman withdrawn from the study is not included in the trial database or further calculations.

Follow-up was from birth until 6 weeks after birth.

A1C, glycated hemoglobin; EOT, end of trial; FU, follow-up; IDet, insulin detemir; MedDRA, Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities; NPH, neutral protamine Hagedorn.
