Predictive Utility of Biochemical Markers for the Diagnosis and Prognosis of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus.

ABSTRACT: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common complication during pregnancy with an increasing prevalence worldwide. Early prediction of GDM and its associated adverse outcomes is crucial for timely intervention and improved maternal and fetal health. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive summary of contemporary evidence on biomarkers, focusing on their potential to predict the development of GDM and serve as predictors of maternal, fetal, and neonatal outcomes in women with GDM. A literature search was conducted in the PubMed database using relevant terms. Original research articles published in English between 1 January 2015, and 30 June 2024, were included. A two-stage screening process was employed to identify studies on biomarkers for GDM diagnosis and prognosis
