Background
Early-onset gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is diagnosed before the 24th gestational week. Since early GDM is associated with first trimester hyperglycemia, many clinicians treat these women as having pre-GDM. However, whether early GDM increases the risk for unfavorable pregnancy outcomes and particularly for fetal malformations to a greater extent than late-onset GDM were not studied sufficiently. We aimed to examine the effect of early-onset GDM on unfavorable pregnancy outcomes.
