The study revealed that women with early GDM (<24 weeks) and their offspring have a higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, including pregnancy-induced hypertension, post-partum hemorrhage, and gestational diabetes. These findings emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and intervention to improve the quality of pregnancy outcomes.
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated+ with adverse pregnancy outcomes compared with women with normal glucose tolerance in pregnancy. The WHO recommends screening at 24-28weeks gestation for GDM. Women who are diagnosed before 24-28weeks gestation have a longer intervention period which may impact positively on pregnancy outcomes. Aim: This study aimed to examine pregnancy outcomes of women with GDM diagnosed <24weeks gestation compared with those diagnosed at 24-28weeks in a large Irish cohort. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of 1471 pregnancies in women with GDM diagnosed using IADPSG criteria between September 2012 and April 2016 was conducted. At GDM diagnosis, women were classified as early GDM <24weeks or standard GDM 24-28weeks gestation. Results: Women with early GDM had a significantly greater risk of pregnancy-induced hypertension (12.4% vs. 5.3%; P<0.05), post-partum haemorrhage (8.7% vs. 2.4%; P<0.05) and post-partum glucose abnormalities (32% vs. 15.6%; P<0.05). Their offspring had a greater risk of pre-maturity (10.9% vs. 6.6%; P<0.05), stillbirth (1.4% vs. 0.5%; P<0.05), large for gestational age (19.1% vs. 13.4% P<0.05) and need neonatal intensive care (30.7% vs. 22.1%; P<0.05) compared with offspring of women with standard GDM. Rates of C-section and pre-maturity were still higher in the early GDM group when the two groups where compared based on their post-natal OGTT. Conclusion: Early GDM women and their offspring are at greater risk of an adverse pregnancy outcome compared with those diagnosed at 24-28weeks. In view of the abnormal post-natal glucose findings, early GDM may reflect a more advanced state in diabetes pathogenesis.
