ABSTRACT

Objective Women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are at risk to develop Type 2 diabetes mellitus ( DM2).The aim of this study is to compare the effect of three diagnostic criteria on the prevalence of GDM.Methods 2864 pregnant women receiving obstetric care at 24 to 28 weeks of gestation at Peking University First Hospital,underwent the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test for routine GDM screening.The pregnancies were evaluated bythe American Diabetes Association (ADA 2004) Cuideline,the new criteria which was proposed by the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG 2010) based on the HAPO study,not by the criteria of American College of Obstetricians and Chinese Obstetrics and Gynecology (6th edition 2005).Venous plasma glucose was measured by the IDMS-traceable glucose oxidase method.Results The mean age of the women was 30 years.590 women were diagnosed with GDM using the IADPSG criteria.According to the IADPSG standard,GDM diagnostic rate reached 20.6％.The diagnostic rate of new criteria was increased by 307％ and 199％ compared with the Chinese Obstetrics and Gynaecology (6th edition) and the old ADA standard,respectively.If increasing the number of abnormal glucose values in the IADPS standard to 2 or more,the number of positive cases dropped to 227 people.The diagnostic rate of GDM plummeted to 7.93％,similar with that of the old ADA diagnostic criteria (6.8％).Conclusions The diagnosis rate of GDM was significantly higher using the IADPSG criteria,due to more stringent glucose abnormality recommended by the IADPSG.
