Implication

This analysis evaluates outcomes in pregnancies with gestational diabetes compared to normoglycemia, highlighting significant risks for earlier delivery.

Key Points

This research aims to assess maternal and neonatal outcomes associated with gestational diabetes compared to pregnancies without diabetes at various delivery weeks.
Conducted a secondary analysis of electronic medical record data
Analyzed outcomes from 9,696 GDM pregnancies and 173,323 normoglycemic pregnancies
Used modified Poisson regression for adjusted relative risks of outcomes at delivery
Investigated composite and individual maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality
Higher proportion of GDM pregnancies delivered before 39 weeks compared to normoglycemic pregnancies
Increased risk of maternal composite outcomes at 37 and 38 weeks among GDM pregnancies, particularly hypertensive disorders
Elevated risk of primary neonatal composite morbidity at 37 weeks for GDM pregnancies
Significantly higher stillbirth rates at 37 weeks among GDM pregnancies, indicating need for earlier delivery
