Increased Macrosomia and Perinatal Morbidity Independent of Maternal Obesity and Advanced Age in Korean Women With GDM

Abstract: Antepartum maternal glucose metabolism was significantly associated with fetal hyperinsulinemia and excessive fetal growth in relatively nonobese Korean women. These findings support a direct role for metabolic factors in the adverse outcomes in pregnancies complicated by GDM.

“…During the study period, 39,190 consecutive women underwent screening for GDM. We followed a previously described protocol for the screening and diagnosis of GDM [3,26]. In brief, all pregnant women without a previous diagnosis of glucose intolerance were screened for GDM between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation by using the 50 g, 1 h glucose challenge test as recommended by the Third International Workshop-Conference on GDM [1].…”

“…Our protocol for screening and diagnosis of GDM has been described in previous publications (13,14). Briefly, all pregnant women who had not been identified as having glucose intolerance before 24 weeks were screened for GDM between 24 and 28 weeks' gestation using the 50-g 1-h glucose challenge test.…”

“…Previous studies have indicated that mothers with GDM are more likely to present with preeclampsia, premature rupture of the membranes, shoulder dystocia, Caesarean section, and pre-term delivery than are those with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) during pregnancy [7][8][9]. The frequent occurrence of perinatal morbidities such as macrosomia, injuries of the brachial plexus, neonatal hypoglycaemia, and foetal distress in offspring also results from glucose intolerance during gestation [7].…”
