Prevention is better than cure: identifying and dealing with the key features involved in the prevention of gestational diabetes - A bird's eye view.

Gestational diabetes (GDM) is considered to be the most common metabolic problem of pregnancy, which, if not recognized and treated on time, can lead to devastating effects on both the mother's health and the health of the fetus and the newborns.

Prevalence of Gestational Diabetes in preCOVID-19 and COVID-19 Years and Its Impact on Pregnancy: A 5-Year Retrospective Study.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects a total of 3% to 9% of all pregnancies. It has a high impact on both mother and baby, increases the perinatal risks, and predicts the presence of long-term chronic metabolic complications. The aim of our study is to determine the incidence of GDM in tertiary hospitals in the west part of Romania to lay out the risk factors associated with GDM and to observe the evolution of pregnancy among patients with this pathology by emphasizing the state of birth of the fetus, the birth weight, and the way of birth.
