The present prospective study included 2156 women and investigated the effect of gene variants in the vitamin D (VitD) metabolic and glucose pathways and their interaction with VitD levels during pregnancy on gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Plasma 25(OH)D concentrations were measured at the first and second trimesters. GDM subtype 1 was defined as those with isolated elevated fasting plasma glucose; GDM subtype 2 were those with isolated elevated postprandial glucose at 1 h and/or 2 h; and GDM subtype 3 were those with both elevated fasting plasma glucose and postprandial glucose. Six Gc isoforms were categorized based on two GC gene variants rs4588 and rs7041, including 1s/1s, 1s/2, 1s/1f, 2/2, 1f/2 and 1f/1f. VDR-rs10783219 and MTNR1B-rs10830962 were associated with increased risks of GDM and GDM subtype 2; interactions between each other as well as with CDKAL1-rs7754840 were observed (Pinteraction < 0.05). Compared with the 1f/1f isoform, the risk of GDM subtype 2 among women with 1f/2, 2/2, 1s/1f, 1s/2 and 1s/1s isoforms and with prepregnancy body mass index ≥24 kg/m2 increased by 5.11, 10.01, 10, 14.23, 19.45 times, respectively. Gene variants in VitD pathway interacts with VitD deficiency at the first trimester on the risk of GDM and GDM subtype 2.

Abstract Purpose Previous studies have suggested that first-trimester fasting plasma glucose (FPG) is associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and is a predictor of GDM. The aim of the present study was to explore whether first-trimester FPG levels can be used as a screening and diagnostic test for GDM in pregnant women. Methods This retrospective study included pregnant women who had their first-trimester FPG recorded at 9-13+6 weeks and underwent screening for GDM using the 2-hour 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) between 24th and 28th gestational weeks. The cut-off values were calculated using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results The medical records of 28,030 pregnant women were analysed, and 4,669 (16.66%) of them were diagnosed with GDM. The mean first-trimester FPG was 4.62 ± 0.37 mmol/L. The total trend in the optimal cut-off value of first-trimester FPG in pregnant women was 4.735 mmol/L, with a sensitivity of 49%, a specificity of 67.6% and AUC of 0.608 (95% CI: 0.598-0.617, p༜0.001). Moreover, as the maternal age increased, the optimal cut-off values increased, respectively. The results suggest that first-trimester FPG can be considered a marker for identifying pregnant women with GDM. Conclusion The level of first-trimester FPG increased slightly with maternal age and, as maternal age increased, the optimal cut-off values increased, especially after age 30. The first-trimester FPG should be considered a screening marker when diagnosing GDM in pregnant women.

Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) at the first trimester in predicting gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and the association between FPG and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Methods: The levels of FPG in women with singleton pregnancies were measured at 9-13+6 weeks. A two hour 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was completed at 24-28 weeks and the International Association of Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups (IADPSG) criteria was used. Adverse pregnancy outcomes were assessed and recorded. Results: Among 2112 pregnant women enrolled in the study, 224 (10.6%) subjects were diagnosed with GDM. The AUC for FPG in predicting GDM was 0.63 (95% CI 0.61- 0.65) and the optimal cutoff value was 4.5 mmol/L (sensitivity 64.29% and specificity 56.45%). Higher first-trimester FPG increased the prevalence of GDM, large for gestational age (LGA) and assisted vaginal delivery and/or cesarean section (all P < 0.05). Conclusion: FPG at first trimester could be used to predict GDM and higher first-trimester FPG was associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.
