Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and subclinical heart dysfunction, specifically looking at left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) during pregnancy using echocardiography.
- A meta-analysis was conducted, analyzing data from 10 studies involving over 7,000 pregnant women, revealing that those with GDM had a significantly lower LV-GLS compared to healthy controls.
- The findings suggest that GDM is associated with early signs of heart dysfunction during pregnancy, indicating the need for targeted interventions for affected women.
