Article Synopsis
- A retrospective study in Belgium assessed pregnancy outcomes following the adoption of IADPSG/WHO guidelines, comparing periods before and after the guidelines were implemented.
- The study found that while hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP) prevalence increased significantly, some adverse outcomes like gestational weight gain, hypertension, and neonatal intensive care admissions decreased across the population.
- Notably, complications such as emergency cesarean sections and preterm births rose overall, although outcomes related to HIP showed improvement, suggesting a complex relationship between guidelines and maternal-fetal health.
