Association between hypoglycemia during glucose challenge and tolerance tests in pregnancy and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes

Key Points

• The aim is to assess the relationship between hypoglycemia during glucose challenge tests and adverse outcomes in pregnancy.
• Retrospective cohort design involving multiple centers
• Assessment of maternal and neonatal outcomes related to hypoglycemia
• Analysis of data from glucose challenge tests
• Hypoglycemia was associated with a higher risk of small for gestational age infants.
• No significant link was found between hypoglycemia and composite neonatal outcomes.
• Findings may reassure clinicians about the implications of hypoglycemia.
