Basic demographic characteristics, lifestyle and behavior patterns were collected. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) results during the second trimester and pregnancy outcomes after childbirth were also collected. A generalized linear model was constructed to analyze the effects of blood glucose levels on neonatal birth outcomes.<h4>Results</h4>We found that every 1 mmol/L increase in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was assocInternational journal of environmental research and public healthAssociation between Maternal Blood Glucose Levels during Pregnancy and Birth Outcomes: A Birth Cohort Study.PMC9915873821039242016YFC10001012021ZDLSF02-14; 2022ZDLSF02-11Mi YQu PYin CShan LShi WZhao DLiu DYue WfalseAssociation between Maternal Blood Glucose Levels during Pregnancy and Birth Outcomes: A Birth Cohort Study.<h4>Objective</h4>This study aimed to investigate the relationship between maternal blood glucose levels during pregnancy and neonatal birth outcomes in Northwest China.<h4>Methods</h4>This population-based cohort study included 10,010 first-trimester pregnant women who joined the birth cohort of the Northwest Women's and Children's Hospital from July 2018 to July 2020.
