Article Synopsis
- Women who had gestational diabetes (GDM) are more likely to get type 2 diabetes (T2D) later on, so doctors check their blood sugar after they give birth.
- This study looked at whether a quick blood test called HbA1c could replace a longer test called OGTT to find out if these women have prediabetes or T2D.
- The results showed that while HbA1c found fewer cases of prediabetes and T2D compared to the OGTT, it was very accurate when it said someone did not have diabetes.
