Key Points

  • The study aims to explore the relationship between second-hour glucose levels and the occurrence of fetal macrosomia in non-diabetic women.
  • Utilized the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to measure glucose levels.
  • Focused on non-diabetic women to assess the relationship with fetal macrosomia.
  • Analyzed the impact of a second-hour glucose value exceeding 99.5 mg/dL.
  • Identified that a second-hour glucose value above 99.5 mg/dL may indicate a risk for fetal macrosomia.
  • Established a correlation between elevated glucose levels and increased likelihood of fetal macrosomia.

Abstract

The second-hour glucose value of the 75 g OGTT may be a marker for foetal macrosomia in nondiabetic patients. These findings suggest that when the second-hour glucose value exceeds 99.5 mg/dL, foetal macrosomia may develop.
