| Abstract | Background Maternal hyperglycemia during pregnancy can lead to adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. Although early treatment is recommended, several randomized controlled trials did not show significant benefits from early intensified treatment, meaning that the benefits of treatment for early abnormal glucose remain unclear. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of medical nutritional treatment during early pregnancy of women with mild hyperglycemia on maternal and neonatal clinical outcomes. Methods Women in this retrospective cohort study who had mild hyperglycemia (6.1 mmol/L > fasting plasma glucose ≥ 5.1 mmol/L and hemoglobin A1c < 5.9%) in the first trimester and a diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus after an oral glucose tolerance test at 24–28 weeks were divided into control and treatment groups depending on whether they receive medical nutritional treatment during early pregnancy. We compared the maternal and neonatal outcomes. Results A total of 344 women were enrolled, and 309 participants were available for analysis (170 in the treatment group and 139 in the control group). Compared with the control group, fewer women in the treatment group had cesarean deliveries (44.7% vs. 61.2%; relative risk [RR], 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54–0.90, P = 0.004) and required insulin therapy (2.9% vs. 8.6%; RR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.88–0.99, P = 0.004). Women in the treatment group exhibited lower glucose levels and weight gain. Newborns in the treatment group had a higher gestational age at birth than those in the control group (39.1 [39.5, 40.0] vs. 38.8 [38.1, 39.5], P = 0.005). No significant differences were observed in other maternal and neonatal outcomes. Conclusions Immediate medical nutritional treatment for pregnant women with mild hyperglycemia during early pregnancy seems to lower the incidence of cesarean delivery and insulin therapy during pregnancy than no treatment. However, no significant differences were observed in neonatal outcomes, except for a higher gestational age at birth of the newborns in the treatment group. Clinical trial number Not applicable. This is an observational study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
