Article Synopsis
  • The polymorphism rs10830963 C>G in the melatonin receptor 1B gene has been linked to a higher risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), as shown in a meta-analysis of 14 studies with over 5,000 GDM patients.
  • Results revealed that carrying the G allele increases GDM risk significantly, with various odds ratios presented for different genetic comparisons.
  • The findings were consistent across ethnic groups, and further studies are suggested to investigate the underlying mechanisms of this association.
