“…The prevalence data for both decades (time periods) were available from six countries (Bahrain, Iran, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE); for the other countries, data were available for the time period 2010-2019 (Table 2). Self-reported GDM status was documented in five research reports (31,73,83,90,119). The predominantly used GDM diagnostic criteria in the MENA region were from the American Diabetes Association and the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Group (ADA/IADPSG; 48.5% of studies).…”

Women in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region are burdened with several risk factors related to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) including overweight and high parity. We systematically reviewed the literature and quantified the weighted prevalence of GDM in MENA at the regional, subregional, and national levels. Studies published from 2000 to 2019 reporting the prevalence of GDM in the MENA region were retrieved and were assessed for their eligibility. Overall and subgroup pooled prevalence of GDM was quantified by random-effects meta-analysis. Sources of heterogeneity were investigated by meta-regression. The risk of bias (RoB) was assessed by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s tool. One hundred and two research articles with 279,202 tested pregnant women for GDM from 16 MENA countries were included. Most of the research reports sourced from Iran (36.3%) and Saudi Arabia (21.6%), with an overall low RoB. In the 16 countries, the pooled prevalence of GDM was 13.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 11.5–14.6%, I2, 99.3%). Nationally, GDM was highest in Qatar (20.7%, 95% CI, 15.2–26.7% I2, 99.0%), whereas subregionally, GDM was highest in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries (14.7%, 95% CI, 13.0–16.5%, I2, 99.0%). The prevalence of GDM was high in pregnant women aged ≥30 years (21.9%, 95% CI, 18.5–25.5%, I2, 97.1%), in their third trimester (20.0%, 95% CI, 13.1–27.9%, I2, 98.8%), and who were obese (17.2%, 95% CI, 12.8–22.0%, I2, 93.8%). The prevalence of GDM was 10.6% (95% CI, 8.1–13.4%, I2, 98.9%) in studies conducted before 2009, whereas it was 14.0% (95% CI, 12.1–16.0%, I2, 99.3%) in studies conducted in or after 2010. Pregnant women in the MENA region are burdened with a substantial prevalence of GDM, particularly in GCC and North African countries. Findings have implications for maternal health in the MENA region and call for advocacy to unify GDM diagnostic criteria.Systematic Review RegistrationPROSPERO CRD42018100629

“…Despite the increasing trend of such indicators in both sexes, women presented variation coefficient superior to men in all of them except for hypertension. This reinforces the need for a greater care to the health of this public, considering that the excessive weight gain during the gestational period, as well as its maintenance, is risk factors for the evaluated conditions 38 .…”

“…In view of the above, it is evident the importance of nutritional care not only during pregnancy, but also in the pre-gestational period, considering that the maternal nutritional status prior to gestation and the gestational weight gain have a great influence on the health of the mother-fetus. Therefore, during the prenatal routine that occurs in basic care, special zeal must be used in the food consumption of these women with the objective of promoting the health of this public; as well as in the postpartum period, where the retention of the acquired weight may constitute a risk factor for the development of chronic diseases, besides the incorporation of such risks for a future pregnancy 38,52 .…”

This article aims to evaluate the associated factors with excessive weight gain in pregnant women from Maceió, the capital of Alagoas, Northeastern Brazil. Cross-sectional study with pregnant women attended in public health in the city of Maceió in 2014, of which socioeconomic, clinical (glycemia, capillary hemoglobin, and blood pressure measurement), dietary, and anthropometric data, including in the latter gestational weight gain, classified as insufficient, adequate and excessive according to the US Institute of Medicine, were collected. The combination of excessive weight gain with the independent variables was tested using the Poisson regression expressed by the Prevalence Ratio (PR) and a 95% confidence interval (CI95%). We studied 403 pregnant women with a mean age of 24.08 ± 6.01 years, with 19.9% of them displayed insufficient weight gain; 14.1% displayed adequate weight gain, and 66.0% displayed excessive weight gain, that was associated with maternal hyperglycemia (PR = 1.35; CI95% = 1.17 to 1.57; p < 0.001). Excessive weight gain is common among pregnant women evaluated with the association of this variable with maternal hyperglycemia.

“…In a prospective study performed in Algeria, pregnant women with more GWG than the recommended limits were overweight or obese according to BMI in pregnancy 16. In another prospective study conducted in Australia, the data of pregnant women who were followed up beginning from the 20 th gestational week were evaluated and those with BMI less than 25 kg/m 2 were classified as healthy and women with BMI greater than 25 kg/m 2 were classified as overweight.…”

The relationship between body mass index before pregnancy and the amount of weight that should be gained during pregnancy: A cross-sectional study

Objective: To investigate the adaptation of pregnant women to the recommended weight gain range according to body mass index (BMI) and to determine the factors affecting them. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed in a university hospital’s obstetrics and gynecology unit (tertiary center) in Turkey. This study was conducted between March 2018 and August 2018 (6 months) in pregnant women. Pregnant women with chronic disease and receiving treatment during antenatal follow-up, with twin pregnancy, with a fetus with a congenital abnormality, and nutritional disturbance were excluded from the study. Eight hundred twelve pregnant women with normal antenatal follow-up and who volunteered to participate were included in the study. Results: The mean age of the participants was 27.66±5.05 years. The mean weight and BMI before pregnancy were near standard in all participants. The group with the highest rate of recommended weight gain according to BMI before pregnancy was the group with low weight pregnant women. The ideal weight gain rate in all groups was 32%. Conclusions: The groups with overweight and obese pregnant women according to BMI before pregnancy had the highest rates of weight gain, above the recommended limits. BMI before pregnancy directly affects weight gain during pregnancy and the importance of pre-pregnancy counseling and weight loss is emphasized once again. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.35.5.133 How to cite this:Ozdilek R, Aba YA, Aksoy SD, Sik BA, Akpak YK.
