IntroductionThis study aimed to assess the validity of applying the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group (IADPSG) criteria for the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) at any time during pregnancy.Research design and methodsThis multicenter cohort study was conducted at five Japanese facilities from January 2018 to April 2019. The study cohort included women at a high risk of GDM who met one or more of the following IADPSG criteria during early pregnancy: fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥92 mg/dL and 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) value of ≥180 mg/dL at 1 hour, or ≥153 mg/dL at 2 hour (hereafter early-onset GDM). Women diagnosed with early-onset GDM were followed up without therapeutic intervention and underwent the 75 g OGTT again during 24–28 weeks of gestation. Those exhibiting the GDM patterns on the second 75 g OGTT were diagnosed with true GDM and treated, whereas those exhibiting the normal patterns were diagnosed with false positive early GDM and received no therapeutic intervention.ResultsOf the 146 women diagnosed with early-onset GDM, 69 (47%) had normal 75 g OGTT values at 24–28 weeks of gestation, indicating a false-positive result. FPG levels were significantly higher in the first 75 g-OGTT test than in the second 75 g-OGTT test (93 mg/dL and 87.5 mg/dL, respectively; p<0.001). FPG levels were high in 86 (59%) women with early-onset GDM during early pregnancy but in only 39 (27%) women during mid-pregnancy. Compared with false positive early GDM, true GDM was more frequently associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.ConclusionsAlthough women with early-onset GDM were followed up without treatment, the results of repeated 75 g OGTT during mid-pregnancy were normal in about 50%. Our data did not support the adoption of IADPSG thresholds for the diagnosis of GDM prior to 20 weeks of gestation.

Objective: Using the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria to diagnose gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), the association between GDM and offspring body mass index (BMI) gains in early childhood in China remains unclear. We aimed to assess the association between GDM diagnosed by the IADPSG criteria and BMI gain and the risk for overweight/obesity in offspring from 1 to 4 years. Methods: This prospective cohort study was based on the healthcare records data from the Medical Birth Registry in Xiamen, China. We included 10,412 mother-child pairs tested for GDM using IADPSG criteria. Results: A total of 1,786 (17.2%) offspring were exposed to GDM. The offspring exposed to GDM had higher mean BMI Z-score (difference, 0.07; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.02 to 0.12) and risk for overweight/obesity (odds ratio [OR], 1.22; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.40) compared to those unexposed to GDM from 1 to 4 years of age. However, after adjustment for maternal pre-pregnancy BMI (Model 2), these associations attenuated towards the null (difference in BMI Z-score, 0.02; 95% CI, −0.03 to 0.07; OR for overweight/obesity, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.95 to 1.25). Conclusion: The associations between GDM diagnosed using IADPSG criteria and BMI Z-score and the risk for overweight/obesity in offspring at the age of 1 to 4 years were largely explained by maternal pre-pregnancy BMI. Reducing the prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity in China should focus on maternal weight status before pregnancy, in addition to glycemia during pregnancy.

Background To compare current guidelines for diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and to identify the ones that are the most relevant for application among pregnant Bulgarian population. Methods A total of 800 pregnant women at high risk for GDM underwent 75 g oral glucose tolerance test between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation as antenatal screening. The results were interpreted and classified according to the guidelines of the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG), American Diabetes Association (ADA), Australasian Diabetes in Pregnancy Society, Canadian Diabetes Association, European Association for the Study of Diabetes, New Zealand Society for the study of Diabetes and World Health Organization. Results The application of different diagnostic criteria resulted in prevalences of GDM between 10.8% and 31.6%. Using any two sets of criteria, women who were classified differently varied between 0.1% and 21.1% ( P < 0.001).The IADPSG criteria were the most inclusive criteria and resulted in the highest prevalence of GDM. There was a significant difference in the major metabolic parameters between GDM and control groups, regardless of which of the diagnostic criteria applied. GDM diagnosed according to all criteria resulted in increased proportion of delivery by caesarean section (CS). However, only ADA and IADPSG criteria identified both increased macrosomia (odds ratio, 2.36; 2.29) and CS rate. Conclusion The need for GDM screening is indisputable. In our view, the new IADPSG guidelines offer a unique opportunity for a unified national and global approach to GDM.

Objective. To examine differences in maternal serum levels of adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, and resistin) and inflammatory markers (tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interlukin-6 (IL-6)) from early to midpregnancy among Arab women with or without gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), along with their links to GDM risk. Methods. This is a multicenter prospective study involving 232 Saudi women attending obstetric care. Both circulating adipokine and markers of inflammation were observed at the first (eight to 12 weeks) and second trimesters (24 to 28 weeks). GDM was screened at 24 to 28 weeks using the International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria. Results. Age and body mass index- (BMI-) matched circulating TNF-α was significantly higher in women with GDM in comparison to non-GDM women ( p = 0.01 ). Adiponectin and resistin significantly decreased from the first to second trimester in women without GDM ( p = 0.002 and 0.026, respectively). Leptin presented a significant rise from the first to second trimester in both groups, with a higher increase in women with GDM ( p = 0.013 ). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that TNF-α was significantly correlated with GDM ( p = 0.03 ). However, significance was lost after adjustments for maternal and lifestyle risk factors (OR 23.58 (0.50 to 1119.98), p = 0.11 ). Conclusion. Inflammatory and adipocytokine profiles are altered in Arab women with GDM, TNF-α in particular. Further studies are needed to establish whether maternal inflammatory and adipocytokine profile influence fetal levels in the same manner.
