Maternal Overweight/obesity increases risk of GDM and macrosomia Objectives: Compare pregestational BMI. Frequency of macrosomia. Correlationship between BMI first trimester fasting glycemia (1stTFG>92) fasting glycemia OGTT (FGOGTT), glycemia 120 minutes OGTT (2HPG), maternal weight gain during pregnancy (MWG) and macrosomía Research Design Methods: Analysis of 120 GDM medical records using ALAD diagnostic criteria. BMI categories were compared in Groups A ≥30 vs. ≤24.9 B 25-29.9 vs. ≤24.9 C ≥30 vs. 25-29.9 Variables: maternal age (MA), 1stTFG>92; FGOGTT, 2HPG, birth weight (BW), HbA1c, maternal triglyceridemia on last trimester (MTAG) maternal weight gain (MWG) SPSS V22. Results: BMI ≥30 N:39 BMI 25-29.9 N:42 BMI≤24.9 N:33 Mean HBA1C for all groups 5%. Table 1 comparison groups. Macrosomía N:13 (N:5 BMI 25-29.9 N:8 BMI ≥30 N:0 BMI group ≤24.9) p0.026. Correlation of macrosomia and FG1stT> 92 FGOGTT 2HPG MWG ≥ 7KG in BMI ≥30 is p0.046 p0.017 p0.096 P0.0001 respectively. Correlation between macrosomia and FG1stT> 92 FGOGTT 2HPG MWG ≥ 11KG in BMI 25-29.9 is p0.0001 P0.011 p0.012 p0.001 respectively Discussion: Pregestational BMI excessive MWG 1stTFG and higher levels of MTAG in BMI ≥30 increases risk of macrosomia. 1stTFG> 92 should considered as an independent risk factor for GD/macrosomia in overweight/obese pregancys. In BMI ≥25 consider lower thresholds of FG for GDM diagnostic criteria to prevent macrosomia. Disclosure M. Argerich: None. R. David: None. A. Bocchini: None.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
