Objective To examine the change in body mass index (BMI) categories between pregnancies and its effect on adverse pregnancy outcomes. Study Design We performed a retrospective cohort study of women with two consecutive deliveries from 2005 to 2010. Analysis was limited to women with BMI recorded at <24 weeks for both pregnancies. Standard BMI categories were used. Adverse pregnancy outcomes included preterm birth at <37 weeks, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), pregnancy-related hypertension, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Women with increased BMI category between pregnancies were compared with those who remained in the same BMI category. Results In total, 537 women were included, of whom 125 (23%) increased BMI category. There was no association between increase in BMI category and risk of preterm birth, IUGR, or pregnancy-related hypertension. Women who increased BMI category had an increased odds of GDM compared with women who remained in the same BMI category (6.4 vs. 2.2%; p = 0.018). The increased risk remained after controlling for age, history of GDM, and starting BMI (adjusted odds ratio: 8.2; 95% confidence interval: 2.1–32.7; p = 0.003). Conclusion Almost one-quarter of women increased BMI categories between pregnancies. This modifiable risk factor has a significant impact on the risk of GDM.

Abstract Background and Aims Obesity is a risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD), but the effect of reducing body mass index (BMI) on the prevention of CKD is controversial. One of reasons for this disagreement is that part of patients with a BMI decrease may have an unfavourable health status. In such cases, the BMI decrease could be a risk factor for the development of CKD. Therefore, by analysing the data of annual health check-ups, we examined an association between BMI change and CKD development to determine whether BMI reduction helps prevent CKD development. Method We analysed the data of 6,959 subjects who underwent annual health check-ups in both 2013 and 2018. By a multivariate logistic regression analysis, we investigated a relationship between BMI change and CKD development within the 5 years between 2013 and 2018. The percent change in the BMI (ΔBMI) was calculated using the following equation: {(BMI in 2018 − BMI in 2013)/BMI in 2013} ×100. For analyses, we classified the subjects into five groups based on their ΔBMI value: (i) severe BMI decrease (ΔBMI &lt;−2.5%); (ii) moderate BMI decrease (ΔBMI ≥−2.5% but &lt;0%); (iii) maintained BMI (ΔBMI ≥0% but &lt;2.5%); (iv) moderate BMI increase (ΔBMI ≥2.5% but &lt;5%); (v) severe BMI increase (ΔBMI ≥5%). For further analysis, we divided the subjects into non-obesity category (basal BMI &lt;25 Kg/m2) and obesity category (basal BMI ≥25 Kg/m2). Subjects with an estimated glomerular filtration rate &lt;60 mL/min./1.73 m2 were defined as having a CKD. Results After adjusting several covariates, compared with the maintained BMI group, the severe BMI decrease group showed a significantly low risk of CKD development (odds ratio (OR) 0.70, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.54-0.91, p &lt;0.01) and the severe BMI increase group had a significantly high risk (OR 1.40, CI 1.08-1.81, p = 0.01). A farther analysis revealed that the OR of CKD development for the severe BMI increase group in the obesity category was higher than that in the non-obesity category (OR 1.75 vs. 1.29). Conclusion In subjects who underwent annual health check-ups, BMI reduction had a significant effect on the prevention of CKD development, whereas an increase in the BMI was a risk factor for CKD development. Moreover, by severe increase in the BMI, obesity subjects showed higher risk of CKD development than non-obesity subjects.
