The secondary outcomes were to determine if the commonly used FPG cut-offs 5.1 mmol/L (92 mg/dL), 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL), and 6.1 mmol/L (110 mg/dL) correlated with adverse pregnancy events.</p></div><div><h3>Data sources</h3><p>Databases were searched for articles published from 2010 onwards for studies examining the relationship between first-trimester FPG and adverse fetomaternal outcomes.</p></div><div><h3>Study selection</h3><p>A total of sixteen studies involving 115,899 pregnancies satisfied the inclusion criteria.</p></div><div><h3>Data extraction and data synthesis</h3><p>Women who developed GDM had a significantly higher first-trimester FPG than those who did not [MD 0.29 mmoL/l (5 mg/dL); 95 % CI: 0.21–0.38; P < 0.00001]. First-trimester FPG ≥5.1 mmol/L (92 mg/dL) predicted the development of GDM at 24–28 weeks [RR 3.93 (95 % CI: 2.67–5.77); P < 0.0000], pre-eclampsia [RR 1.55 (95%CI:1.14–2.12); P = 0.006], gestational hypertension [RR1.47 (95%CI:1.20–1.79); P = 0.0001], large-for-gestational-age (LGA) [RR 1.32 (95%CI:1.13–1.54); P = 0.0004], and macrosomia [RR1.29 (95%CI:1.15–1.44); P < 0.001]. However, at the above threshold, the rates of preterm delivery, lower-segment cesarean section (LSCS), small-for gestational age (SGA), and neonatal hypoglycemia were not significantly higher. First-trimester FPG ≥5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) correlated with occurrence of macrosomia [RR1.47 (95 % CI:1.22–1.79); P < 0.0001], LGA [RR 1.43 (95%CI:1.24–1.65); P < 0.00001], and preterm delivery [RR1.51 (95%CI:1.15–1.98); P = 0.003], but not SGA and LSCS.</p></div><div><h3>Limitations</h3><p>Only one study reported outcomes at first-trimester FPG of 6.1 mmol/L (110 mg/dL), and hence was not analyzed.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>The risk of development of GDM at 24–28 weeks increased linearly with higher first-trimester FPG. First trimester FPG cut-offs of 5.1 mmol/L (92 mg/dL) and 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) predicted several adverse pregnancy outcomes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48252,"journal":{"name":"Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome-Clinical Research & Reviews","volume":"18 6","pages":"Article 103051"},"PeriodicalIF":10.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141249892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
