Screening for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Pregnancy Outcomes: Results from a Multicentric Study in Tajikistan.

ABSTRACT: The prevalence of gestational diabetes parallels the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus and is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. However, these data are not available for many parts of the world. We assessed the prevalence of gestational diabetes and pregnancy outcomes in Tajikistan. This cohort study included 2438 consecutively recruited representative pregnant women from 8 locations in two cities in Tajikistan, in whom an oral glucose tolerance test (75 g, fasting, 1 h, 2 h) was performed during gestational weeks 24-28. Women with known diabetes and twin pregnancies were excluded. Associations between glucose tolerance test results and pregnancy outcomes were examined. According to the WHO 2013 thresholds, 32.4% of women qualified as having gestational diabetes, the vast majority (29.7%) based on an elevated fasting glucose level (5.1-5.6 mmol/L), while only 2.8% had elevated 1- or 2-hour values or met more than one threshold. Women with only elevated fasting glucose (impaired gestational fasting glycemia) had no evidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes, while those with elevated 1- and/or 2-hour values (impaired gestational glucose tolerance) had more pregnancy complications (infection of urinary tract 1.8 vs. 8.8% p<0.001; preeclampsia 0.7 vs. 10.3% p<0.001) and emergency cesarean sections (4.4 vs. 13.2% p=0.002). Neonates from pregnancies with impaired gestational glucose tolerance had lower APGARs, lower birth weights, lower 30 min glucose levels, and a lower probability of being discharged alive (all p<0.05). In conclusion, the formal prevalence of gestational diabetes is high in Tajikistan; however, this does not translate into adverse pregnancy outcomes for women with impaired gestational fasting glycemia.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the association between gestational diabetes mellitus and adverse outcomes of pregnancy after adjustment for at least minimal confounding factors.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis.Data sourcesWeb of Science, PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, from 1 January 1990 to 1 November 2021.Review methodsCohort studies and control arms of trials reporting complications of pregnancy in women with gestational diabetes mellitus were eligible for inclusion. Based on the use of insulin, studies were divided into three subgroups: no insulin use (patients never used insulin during the course of the disease), insulin use (different proportions of patients were treated with insulin), and insulin use not reported. Subgroup analyses were performed based on the status of the country (developed or developing), quality of the study, diagnostic criteria, and screening method. Meta-regression models were applied based on the proportion of patients who had received insulin.Results156 studies with 7 506 061 pregnancies were included, and 50 (32.1%) showed a low or medium risk of bias. In studies with no insulin use, when adjusted for confounders, women with gestational diabetes mellitus had increased odds of caesarean section (odds ratio 1.16, 95% confidence interval 1.03 to 1.32), preterm delivery (1.51, 1.26 to 1.80), low one minute Apgar score (1.43, 1.01 to 2.03), macrosomia (1.70, 1.23 to 2.36), and infant born large for gestational age (1.57, 1.25 to 1.97). In studies with insulin use, when adjusted for confounders, the odds of having an infant large for gestational age (odds ratio 1.61, 1.09 to 2.37), or with respiratory distress syndrome (1.57, 1.19 to 2.08) or neonatal jaundice (1.28, 1.02 to 1.62), or requiring admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (2.29, 1.59 to 3.31), were higher in women with gestational diabetes mellitus than in those without diabetes. No clear evidence was found for differences in the odds of instrumental delivery, shoulder dystocia, postpartum haemorrhage, stillbirth, neonatal death, low five minute Apgar score, low birth weight, and small for gestational age between women with and without gestational diabetes mellitus after adjusting for confounders. Country status, adjustment for body mass index, and screening methods significantly contributed to heterogeneity between studies for several adverse outcomes of pregnancy.ConclusionsWhen adjusted for confounders, gestational diabetes mellitus was significantly associated with pregnancy complications. The findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the adverse outcomes of pregnancy related to gestational diabetes mellitus. Future primary studies should routinely consider adjusting for a more complete set of prognostic factors.Review registrationPROSPERO CRD42021265837.

Project description:Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) could have a variable degree of adverse effects on pregnancy outcomes for both pregnant women and newborns. The purpose of the study was to explore the effect of GDM on pregnancy outcomes in advanced primiparous women. A total of 1076 advanced primiparous women were included between January 2020 and December 2022. All these women were divided into the GDM group (n = 434) and the non-GDM group (n = 642). Variables included baseline characteristics, maternal, and newborn outcomes were collected. The risk of each adverse outcome was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression models. The effect of blood glucose control on pregnancy outcomes was further analyzed among GDM women with good glycaemic control (n = 381) and poor glycaemic control (n = 53). Analysis of baseline characteristics demonstrated a significant difference in prepregnancy body mass index (median, IQR: 22.27 [20.58-24.44] vs 21.17 [19.53-22.86], P < .01) between the GDM group and the non-GDM group. A significantly higher incidence rate of adverse pregnancy outcomes was found in advanced primiparous women with GDM, such as polyhydramniosis, premature birth, low-birth weight, macrosomia, and neonatal intensive care unit admission (all P < .05). Compared with the non-GDM group, the risk of polyhydramniosis was nearly twice as high in the GDM group (adjusted odds ratio: 1.94, 95% confidence interval: 1.01-3.72, P = .04) after adjusted baseline characteristics. Among the GDM group, the women with poor glycaemic control showed a significantly higher incidence rate of polyhydramnios, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, cesarean delivery, premature birth, low-birth weight, macrosomia, and neonatal intensive care unit admission was significant than the women with good glycaemic control (all P < .05). GDM was an independent risk factor for polyhydramnios in advanced primiparous women. At the same time, good glycaemic control in diabetics advanced primiparous women could reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Project description:IntroductionIt is well known that both women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have increased risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes, but little is known whether the combination of these two conditions exacerbates the risks. We explored risk estimates for adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with either PCOS or GDM and the combination of both PCOS and GDM.Material and methodsNationwide register-based historical cohort study in Sweden including women who gave birth to singleton infants during 1997-2015 (N = 281 806). The risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes were estimated for women exposed for PCOS-only (n = 40 272), GDM-only (n = 2236), both PCOS and GDM (n = 1036) using multivariable logistic regression analyses. Risks were expressed as odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and adjusted for maternal characteristics, including maternal BMI. Women with neither PCOS nor GDM served as control group. Maternal outcomes were gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, postpartum hemorrhage, and obstetric anal sphincter injury. Neonatal outcomes were preterm birth, stillbirth, shoulder dystocia, born small or large for gestational age, macrosomia, low Apgar score, infant birth trauma, cerebral impact of the infant, neonatal hypoglycemia, meconium aspiration syndrome and respiratory distress.ResultsBased on non-significant PCOS by GDM interaction analyses, we found no evidence that having PCOS adds any extra risk beyond that of having GDM for maternal and neonatal outcomes. For example, the adjusted odds ratio for preeclampsia in women with PCOS-only were 1.18 (95% CI 1.11-1.26), for GDM-only 1.77 (95% CI 1.45-2.15), and for women with PCOS and GDM 1.86 (95% CI 1.46-2.36). Corresponding adjusted odds ratio for preterm birth in women with PCOS-only were 1.34 (95% CI 1.28-1.41), GDM-only 1.64 (95% CI 1.39-1.93), and for women with PCOS and GDM 2.08 (95% CI 1.67-2.58). Women with PCOS had an increased risk of stillbirth compared with the control group (aOR 1.52, 95% CI 1.29-1.80), whereas no increased risk was noted in women with GDM (aOR 0.58, 95% CI 0.24-1.39).ConclusionsThe combination of PCOS and GDM adds no extra risk beyond that of having GDM alone, for a number of maternal and neonatal outcomes. Nevertheless, PCOS is still an unrecognized risk factor in pregnancy, exemplified by the increased risk of stillbirth.
