“…Studies have been done in several countries to determine the prevalence of GDM in accordance with the new IADPSG criteria. The prevalence of GDM diagnosed by IADPSG criteria has been reported as 17.6%, 4.2%, 11.8%, 9.5%, 23.3%, 8.6%, and 45% in Singapore, Greenland, Switzerland, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Sub‐Saharan Africa, and the United Arab Emirates, respectively. By contrast, a two‐step approach for diagnosis determined a GDM prevalence of 3.3% in Switzerland and 12% in the United Arab Emirates .…”

“…Lower prevalence has been reported in African countries including Ghana (9.3%) [16], South African (9.1%) [21] and Nigeria (8.6%) [22] compared with developed regions like North America (12%) and Europe (14%) [2]. But Africa appears to be catching-up fast as pockets of high cases have recently been reported in Tanzania (19.5%) [23], South Africa (25.8%) [24] and Morocco (23.7%) [25].…”

“…Based on a maternal hyperglycemia prevalence rate of 8.6% from a local study that assessed maternal hyperglycemia based on IADPSG criteria, a cohort size of 269 patients was estimated as necessary to test the specificity of the 50‐g GCT relative to that of the 75‐g OGTT with 80% power. Recruitment continued until the number of patients recruited who had undergone both the 50‐g GCT and 75‐g OGTT exceeded the estimated sample size by approximately 5%.…”
