ABSTRACT
AIM:
Women with early-onset gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have overall lower gestational weight gain (GWG) compared to those with later-onset GDM, albeit with usually worse maternofetal outcomes. We intent to investigate the association between inadequate GWG and maternofetal outcomes in pregnant women with early-onset GDM.METHODS:
We performed a retrospective study of women with early-onset GDM based on the National Registry of GDM. Three study groups were defined according to the recommendations of the Institute of Medicine for GWG excessive GWG (eGWG), adequate (aGWG) or insufficient (iGWG).RESULTS:
A total of 8040 pregnant women were included 27% (n = 2170) eGWG, 31% (n = 2492) aGWG and 42% (n = 3378) iGWG. Preeclampsia (4.3 vs 3 vs 1.6%, p < 0.001), polyhydramnios (3.1 vs 2.3 vs 1.8%, p = 0.008) and cesarean section (37.4 vs 34.1 vs 29.5%, p < 0.001) were significantly more frequent among women with eGWG. Additionally, there was a higher frequency of macrosomia (8.1 vs 3.6 vs 2.4%, p < 0.001), large-for-gestational-age (8.2 vs 3.7 vs 2.6%, p < 0.001) and birth trauma (2.6 vs 1.5 vs 1.1%, p < 0.001) in this group. On the other hand, fetal death (0.2 vs 0.2 vs 0.5%, p = 0.04), small-for-gestational-age (9 vs 10.3 vs 14.9, p < 0.001) and preterm delivery (5.6 vs 7.1 vs 7.5%, p = 0.03) were more frequent in iGWG group.CONCLUSIONS:
Over two-thirds of pregnant women with early-onset GDM had inappropriate GWG, which was significantly associated with adverse maternofetal outcomes. Weight management must be a focus of special attention in women with early-onset GDM, beyond glycemic control, to achieve healthy pregnancy outcomes.Palabras clave
