Objective: To identify the value for the 1-hour glucose tolerance test (GTT) that would maintain 100%, 90% and 75% sensitivity for identifying abnormal 3-hour GTT results in prenatal patients from an East Coast, urban, university hospital setting.
Study Design: Two hundred forty-two women who underwent the 3-hour GTT during pregnancy between January 1, 2004, and February 1, 2005, at a university hospital laboratory and private laboratories were included. The preceding 1-hour GTT results were obtained from these women, and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed to identify a 1-hour GTT cutoff value that would maintain 100%, 90% and 75% sensitivity. A subgroup analysis was performed of patients of Asian ethnicity. This study was approved by the institutional review board.
Results: To maintain 100% sensitivity of the 1-hour GTT in predicting an abnormal 3-hour GTT, the 1-hour GTT cutoff value could be raised to 144 mg/dL in our population. For 90% and 75% sensitivities, the values were 150 and 156 mg/dL, respectively. There was no clinically significant difference in ROC curve evaluation between Asian and non-Asian groups.
Conclusion: Raising the current level of 135 mg/dL for a 1-hour GTT to potentially decrease the need for the 3-hour GTT should be considered if larger patient series yield findings similar to those in our population.

Objective: This study aimed to ascertain whether the length of time to complete the gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) screening was associated with adverse neonatal outcomes.
Study Design: This was a retrospective cohort study of singleton, nonanomalous individuals who were screened for GDM at ≥24 weeks' gestation at an academic hospital system. We compared outcomes among people who were diagnosed with GDM and completed the 3-hour glucose tolerance test (GTT) ≤14 second versus >14 days from the 1-hour glucose challenge test (GCT).

Objective: The objective of our study was to investigate the effect of impaired glucose metabolism (IGM) and ultrasound (US) findings consistent with hyperglycemia on maternal and neonatal outcomes.
Study Design: This was a retrospective case-control study of singleton, nonanomalous pregnancies with an elevated 1-hour glucose screening test (GST) completed after 23 weeks of gestation. IGM was defined as a 1-hour GST of >130, but less than two abnormal values on 3-hour glucose tolerance test (GTT).

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and elevated glucose concentrations below the threshold for GDM diagnosis have been associated with adverse pregnancy and offspring outcomes. Dietary interventions initiated during pregnancy have demonstrated inconsistent beneficial effects. Limited data exist regarding the effects of periconceptional diet on gestational glycemia.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the positive predictive value (PPV) of a 1-hour, 50-g glucose challenge test (GCT) result ≥200 mg/dL for the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on a 3-hour, 100-g glucose tolerance test (GTT).
Study Design: Pregnancies between 2008 and 2016 with a GCT result ≥200 mg/dL were identified retrospectively. GCT and GTT dates and results, demographics, and working due date (EDD) were extracted.
