Objective: To report frequencies of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) among the 15 centers that participated in the Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome (HAPO) Study using the new International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria.
Research Design And Methods: All participants underwent a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test between 24 and 32 weeks' gestation. GDM was retrospectively classified using the IADPSG criteria (one or more fasting, 1-h, or 2-h plasma glucose concentrations equal to or greater than threshold values of 5.1, 10.0, or 8.5 mmol/L, respectively).
Results: Overall frequency of GDM was 17.8% (range 9.3-25.5%). There was substantial center-to-center variation in which glucose measures met diagnostic thresholds.
Conclusions: Although the new diagnostic criteria for GDM apply globally, center-to-center differences occur in GDM frequency and relative diagnostic importance of fasting, 1-h, and 2-h glucose levels. This may impact strategies used for the diagnosis of GDM.

Introduction: Nutrition during pregnancy significantly impacts maternal and birth outcomes. A key factor contributing to the rise in adverse maternal and birth outcomes is poor nutrition. Produce prescription programs have the potential to address pregnancy-related adverse outcomes such as hypertensive disorders and gestational diabetes, but scientific evidence is limited.

Purpose: This study aims to identify key genes that may be involved in the pathogenesis of gestational diabetes mellitus and to preliminarily elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: High-throughput transcriptome sequencing was employed to identify Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in placental tissue samples of GDM and normal pregnant women. Functional and pathway analyses of these DEGs were conducted using bioinformatics databases.

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a global health concern with significant short and long-term complications for both mother and baby. Early prediction of GDM, particularly late-onset, is crucial for implementing timely interventions to mitigate adverse outcomes. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive metabolomic analysis to explore potential biomarkers for early GDM prediction.

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects 14% of pregnancies globally, with a prevalence of 9-16% in India. Low-glycaemic index (GI) foods like millets may help control glycaemia in GDM. This study compared glycaemic control between GDM patients consuming millets once a day (MOD) and those receiving enhanced medical nutrition therapy (MNT) for 1 month.
