- OBJECTIVE: In most gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) studies, cohorts have included women combined into study populations without regard to whether hyperglycemia was present earlier in pregnancy. In this study we sought to compare perinatal outcomes between groups: women with early GDM (EGDM group: diagnosis before 20 weeks but no treatment until 24-28 weeks if GDM still present), with late GDM (LGDM group: present only at 24-28 weeks), and with normoglycemia at 24-28 weeks (control subjects).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This is a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled treatment trial where we studied, among women with risk factors, early (<20 weeks' gestation) GDM defined according to World Health Organization 2013 criteria. Those receiving early treatment for GDM treatment were excluded. GDM was treated if present at 24-28 weeks. The primary outcome was a composite of birth before 37 weeks' gestation, birth weight ≥4,500 g, birth trauma, neonatal respiratory distress, phototherapy, stillbirth/neonatal death, and shoulder dystocia. Comparisons included adjustment for age, ethnicity, BMI, site, smoking, primigravity, and education.RESULTS: Women with EGDM (n = 254) and LGDM (n = 467) had shorter pregnancy duration than control subjects (n = 2,339). BMI was lowest with LGDM. The composite was increased with EGDM (odds ratio [OR] 1.59, 95% CI 1.18-2.12)) but not LGDM (OR 1.19, 95% CI 0.94-1.50). Induction of labor was higher in both GDM groups. In comparisons with control subjects there were higher birth centile, higher preterm birth rate, and higher rate of neonatal jaundice for the EGDM group (but not the LGDM group). The greatest need for insulin and/or metformin was with EGDM.CONCLUSIONS: Adverse perinatal outcomes were increased with EGDM despite treatment from 24-28 weeks' gestation, suggesting the need to initiate treatment early, and more aggressively, to reduce the effects of exposure to the more severe maternal hyperglycemia from early pregnancy.

- OBJECTIVE: To compare pregnancy outcomes among women with a normal oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) before 20 weeks' gestation (early) and at 24-28 weeks' gestation (late) (no gestational diabetes mellitus, or No-GDM), those with early GDM randomized to observation with a subsequent normal OGTT (GDM-Regression), and those with GDM on both occasions (GDM-Maintained).RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Women at <20 weeks' gestation with GDM risk factors who were recruited for a randomized controlled early GDM treatment trial were included. Women with treated early GDM and late GDM (according to the World Health Organization's 2013 criteria) were excluded from this analysis. Logistic regression compared pregnancy outcomes.RESULTS: GDM-Regression (n = 121) group risk factor profiles and OGTT results generally fell between the No-GDM (n = 2,218) and GDM-Maintained (n = 254) groups, with adjusted incidences of pregnancy complications similar between the GDM-Regression and No-GDM groups.CONCLUSIONS: Women with early GDM but normal OGTT at 24-28 weeks' gestation had pregnancy outcomes that were similar to those of individuals without GDM. Identifying early GDM likely to regress would allow treatment to be avoided.

- BACKGROUND: A recently undertaken multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) "Treatment Of BOoking Gestational diabetes Mellitus" (TOBOGM: 2017-2022) found that the diagnosis and treatment of pregnant women with early gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) improved pregnancy outcomes. Based on data from the trial, this study aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment of early GDM (from <20 weeks') among women with risk factors for hyperglycemia in pregnancy compared with usual care (no treatment until 24-28 weeks') from a healthcare perspective.METHODS: Participants' healthcare resource utilization data were collected from their self-reported questionnaires and hospital records, and valued using the unit costs obtained from standard Australian national sources. Costs were reported in US dollars ($) using the purchasing power parity (PPP) estimates to facilitate comparison of costs across countries. Intention-to-treat (ITT) principle was followed. Missing cost data were replaced using multiple imputations. Bootstrapping method was used to estimate the uncertainty around mean cost difference and cost-effectiveness results. Bootstrapped cost-effect pairs were used to plot the cost-effectiveness (CE) plane and cost-effectiveness acceptability curve (CEAC).FINDINGS: Diagnosis and treatment of early GDM was more effective and tended to be less costly, i.e., dominant (cost-saving) [-5.6% composite adverse pregnancy outcome (95% CI: -10.1%, -1.2%), -$1373 (95% CI: -$3,749, $642)] compared with usual care. Our findings were confirmed by both the CE plane (88% of the bootstrapped cost-effect pairs fall in the south-west quadrant), and CEAC (the probability of the intervention being cost-effective ranged from 84% at a willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold value of $10,000-99% at a WTP threshold value of $100,000 per composite adverse pregnancy outcome prevented). Sub-group analyses demonstrated that diagnosis and treatment of early GDM among women in the higher glycemic range (fasting blood glucose 95-109 mg/dl [5.3-6.0 mmol/L], 1-h blood glucose ≥191 mg/dl [10.6 mmol/L] and/or 2-h blood glucose 162-199 mg/dl [9.0-11.0 mmol/L]) was more effective and less costly (dominant) [-7.8% composite adverse pregnancy outcome (95% CI: -14.6%, -0.9%), -$2795 (95% CI: -$6,638, -$533)]; the intervention was more effective and tended to be less costly [-8.9% composite adverse pregnancy outcome (95% CI: -15.1%, -2.6%), -$5548 (95% CI: -$16,740, $1547)] among women diagnosed before 14 weeks' gestation as well. INTERPRETATION: Our findings highlight the potential health and economic benefits from the diagnosis and treatment of early GDM among women with risk factors for hyperglycemia in pregnancy and supports its implementation. Long-term follow-up studies are recommended as a key future area of research to assess the potential long-term health benefits and economic consequences of the intervention.
